I have received my pass. No wristband. Assume this will be given on arrival, well according to the first letter received. I have a detailed plan of the area showing the direction of the parade and where we are to park. It mentions cars must have a 6 inch clearance as well. But looking at my side skirts I'm not too sure I have!

Don't worry about clearance for access to the site, I have about 4" total clearance and have never had a problem getting into the "Wheels Zone". It might be the parade that is an issue though confused I can call and ask if you want? No probs, if anybody else is concerned about ground clearance let me know.
I think wrist bands are for "speed freaks" only, paddock access and driver briefings etc. wink

Any suggestions for a "Speed Freaks" meeting place and time since we are to use the northern (Top Gear) entrance maybe the Three Compasses isn't ideally located?

The 3 Compasses is a good meeting point for the "Picnickers" 8-8:30 is the usual time for them to convene wink
For us "Speed Freaks" how's about the Smithbrook Kilns car park? Map of location ignore the pinpointed shop, it's just one of the boutiques in the shopping centre. The latest time to meet should be 8ish or we'll have problems getting into the paddock.
Car's all shiney, ready for next weekend, weather is meant to be HOT! smile will make my new Yokohama Parada spec2's stick nicely to the tarmac, none waisted on wheel spin wink

Sounds good to me. I was even thinking on the drive into work this morning that shouldn't someone start organising the area to meet? I see you there before 8am smile

Dear Ross and Steve,

Malheureusement, I have given tickets (which arrived three days ago) to my son and family. I do still have the Fiat area mirror tag which is not needed by him as he is a Nissan Man not a coupe (some things are harder than others to pass from one generation to the next!). You need that to get into the Fiat area; if that's any use Steve just PM and I'll either post or arrange collection.

I won't be able to attend this prestigious event (or any others for a while) as I broke my forearm playing cricket on Friday. Driving with an above-the-elbow plaster cast is a little difficult....

Have a great day out, and I look forward to seeing the pictures grr . Bugger!

Urgent work commitment meant I had to drop out early on, but now this project has been delayed for 10 days which means I'm free this weekend any chance I could get hold of a ticket at such late notice? What do I need to do?

Haven't been following this thread so any help would be most useful, where to meet-up etc.

SteveL_SG20v,

My son now thinks he may not be able to go after all BUT will let me know for sure by tonight; pesky kids- they don't get better when they get older!.

Serg1,
Re: the above, if Jonny doesn't go there are two tickets. If Steve (above) only wants one then you can both have one each, EXCEPT there's only one mirror tag and Steve has that already. If Tim has a full set of tickets then we can work something out for both of you with regard to the Fiat area and Parade in time for Saturday.

IT ALL DEPENDS ON JONNY'S ANSWER TONIGHT!

OK thanks for that Thunderbox, I wait with baited breath. If your son decides to go, then we will have to fight it out for Tim's ticket, I guess.

Iain,

Smithbrook Kilns Shopping Village (sooo Surrey darling!)
GU6 8JJ On the A281. Probably best for you and James from M25, A3 to Guildford and A281 south from there.
See you on Saturday!

Mis-typed the important road No.!!

If you come M25, A3, Guildford, let me know and I can meet you at Shalford train station, then you can follow me (also helps that I live less than a 2 minute walk from the station laugh )
