Got the email 11.20 today. Really looking forward to this. Can only do the Sunday, but plan on whole w/e next year. Looks great.

Bit of advice from those experienced in attending.....how long do I need to allow to get through the melee once I get to Silverstone...have a feeling its an early start.

Got the Email at 09:11.

What I meant about the kids was that they are both under 8 and that seems to be the age if they are in the rear. It might be easy to get round but not sure.

IMPORTANT.

Cars displaying in the club area MUST be parked by 10.00am. Departure is AFTER 5.00pm.

This applies all days.

It will take between 30 minutes and 1 hour to get to the club area after arriving Silverstone, particularly on Sunday.

You might well say that Miles, but Silverstone will not prevent anyone leaving at any time they choose. They never have in the past, and I'm certain they won't in the future.

You could be right Drew, but it will depend on how you're parked, particularly on Sunday when the club park will be congested.

I know it's too early to realistically get a feel but just looked at the met office long term forecast.....bring your brollies and your wellies!

I hope not! Just pray for a dry day not bothered about it being scorchio as that can be as hard work as rain when the kids are there!

Absolutely, Dicky. I'll not need any money. My entrance ticket is separate from the infield pass. (Though, if you'd like to send me that 3200 you're selling as a thank you, I won't refuse) Send me a PM with your address and I'll pop it into the post as soon as I receive it. :)

Notwithstanding being blocked in by other Maseratis, which, with a modicum of planning won't happen, in my experience, you'll be able to arrive and leave as and when you please.

Shouldn't be a problem me getting there for before 9, it's not exactly a long way ;)

Getting out of the infield is not normally an issue and normally people do start to leave from 3 ish onwards anyway on the Sunday.
