    I'd have said there are two areas of concern - viewing and access. A lot of the tracks have places where in car viewing next to a fence is possible or in the case of Rockingham from the grandstand or on top of the garage roof (there is a lift up there).
    Secondly access to the paddock, toilets etc. I know Snetterton, Oulton, Brands, Silverstone & Rockingham have wheelchair friendly toilets and the paddock has good paths and slopes etc (Snett is probably the worse for gravel). Thruxton has a really steep hill which I would hate in a chair and Brands is pretty hard too.
    Thirdly restaurants etc Silverstone cafe I would find hard to get into but possible, Oulton Park, Snett, Rock no problem.
    I've got friends racing all over the world.... good luck to you all.

In fact I often stand around that area.
    I've only been the once, in 2004, and on that occasion I was unable to. We ended up parked a bit away from the track on the opposite side to the paddock. Something was mentioned of a better place, but it must have been full by about 8.30-9 that day so it wasn't really adequate.
    2nd place in the big quizz challenge!
