Dadstoys Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 Going for the first time ever, with some friends, thursday to sunday night. Convoy consists of Bentley GT, Ferrari 360 Spider, a 500 bhp Corvette, a couple of Porsche 911's, and possibly a Diablo. I'm sharing the driving of the Corvette. Will take some pics and post them up when we get back. Cant wait !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadstoys Posted June 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 We're leaving Notts about 10am, so its probably going to be mid afternoon. One of the Porsche guys has sorted it all, I've just got to turn up at the garage with bag packed and wallet ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadstoys Posted June 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Not camping. Rented some big house with secure parking. Having never been before, do you pay each day, or get a 3 day ticket like at Silverstone ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pincher Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 You should be able to get a General Admission ticket at the gate (I think) - one of the veterans will be along soon to confirm, I'm sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They take them off for each day and give you a piece of paper to show you have entered with that ticket (DO NOT LOSE THIS). It allows you entry to the village, pit lane walkabout and the viewing areaa around the track. Good value imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadstoys Posted June 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 General entry passes. Thanks for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHA Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 Yeah there are loads of ticket sales booths, at the entrance to our campsite last year there was one and there will be plenty in the circuit villiage. Saturday night is TSN champagne bar meet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
