    Hi Guys,

    I have my test tomorrow in Churchtown and I have a couple of questions.

    Firstly, I noticed the entrance to the test center is rather narrow, the parking is quiet tight, and the hill is quiet steep.

    I am going to drive in, reverse into a spot so that I can just drive out when the test begins.

    When arriving back in, is there usually a free spot to drive into? Is is busy on Friday mornings around 9am-10am?

    Any other tips for the Churchtown area? I've been driving around it a good bit so I have some sense of direction around the area.

    Also there are some roads with a lot of speed bumps, should I stick with 2nd gear through these? Or keep shifting up to 3rd off the bump and then back to 2nd approaching the next bump?

    Final question, while I am taking a Right or Left at a T Juntion, should I stay in 1st Gear until I am straightened up? It sounds very Revvy being in first for the whole turn? I don't think it would be wise to change into 2nd mid turn, I am not in full control then..? Or should I quickly get into 2nd before the turn starts?
