Snetterton Update

Tyrells Restaurant will not be open to visitors & spectators at the Club's meeting at Snetterton on Saturday 5th September 2020

We have seen flip-flop mixed information on whether Tyrells Restaurant would be open to Visitors & Spectators but it seems the only refreshment point for Visitors & Spectators will be the Snack Bar near Murrays Corner. So V8 Members will be meeting there for breakfast - it's next to the parking area.

For more information contact Victor Smith. Contacts & Snetterton

Please note - we understand the event is open to spectators but of course the UK Government could at any time make national or local lockdowns or other changes to permissions for mass gatherings.

There is a snack bar near Murray corner and that is for the Public (visitors/spectators)".
