Last time I went down the M1 there were thousands of cones, I'm sure they won't miss a few for a few days :D
Current fleet: Milan SL MK2 #027, Fujin SL II, Beany!

Jes what part of the cct are you using ------> as Formula Student are there

http://www.formulastudent.com/events/

16th-19th and use mainly the area around the start/finish straight along with all the pits. you`ll have to battle with over 100 teams from around the world for camping food halls etc.
 
and they make 110dBs or less........ or moe at night!!!!!
 
check it out!!!! you may find the FS lot have cones you could use. Let me know what goes and I`ll ask F and K at IMechE. last year we had two bent flying up and down the rear of the pits.

We are using car park 49 and I am not after camping on site seeing as no one complained that there wasn't any last time!
 
We borrowed 300 off a very nice man at Carrillion last year and I was really hoping to do the same but any other leads would be handy!

Car park 49 is in red circle, i assume you will be able to recognise the circuit from bridge to pit entry..

It boasts the longest urinal in human powered racing in the world.

Almost makes it worth the trip in itself!
 
And there is a Costa coffee for those not pedalling so I might put myself down as pit crew for that one...
