2 for 1 weekend tickets are still available (I've got mine), and parade laps for invited club members are also on offer. Book early to avoid disappointment.
I'm booked up. Are we roughing it or do you want the gazebo etc?
I'm booked too. Not sure about me roughing it - it's only 7 miles away!!
SYNN are coming too, wonder if they're bringing a gazebo?? We are allowed one, and my "tent" is OK but not substantial enough.

Infield passes arrive from DHF, tickets from the ticket agency so you should have both (eventually).
I have your name on the list sent to me today from the club display organiser, so you are there. If they don't arrive, they will have some spare on the gate so don't worry, just be happy.

Hi Graham

I plan to go on sunday but I didnt get advance ticket as discount small relative to risk of bad weather!

Will I be able to get infield pass at gate? If not am happy just to park in public area and find you guys on foot.

Yes I know it's poor commitment to not buy advance ticket, but I was only TIPEC guy at this week's Ace Cafe Porsche night on a beautiful bank holiday evening!

Cheers

Adrian

There will be a stock of infield passes at the gate. I will let Karen (club display oraniser) know directly that you intend to attend. I'm sure it won't be an issue.

Thoroughly enjoyed day in sun (and wind) at Donington, but I was surprised how low attendance was from both car clubs and public spectators.

Special thanks to Graham who not only arranged an infield pass for me at very short notice, but then offered me one of the few parade lap places we had which was highlight of my day as I don't do track days so a thrill even at sedate pace. Happy birthday mate and thanks to Carol too for the cake!

Cheers
