Porsche Enthusiasts Club Forum

The Clubs have an area on the infield and we will be allocated a space for our Porsches.

1/2 price tickets and infield parking, not a bad deal.

Thanks Sean,
I will have to clear it with the other half and I should be in.
Obviously I need to join TIPEC but that was always going to happen when I got back to the UK.

Which day is best...?

That's hard to say. The race line up varies each day so it all depends on what sort of cars you'd prefer to see racing.

Deadline for Club Tickets has been extended to 11pm Friday 25th April

Club code is on page 4 of All Torque.

Think I'm scuppered now - the in-laws are visiting
Did have a good day at Donington on Sunday however for the BTCC

All the more reason for going

I have had a note back from the organisers and we have

6 cars on Saturday
13 cars on Sunday
7 cars on Monday

I have blagged a space for 1 car each day to join the lunch time parade lap. If you would like to go on the parade lap drop me a note and I will forward the details on how to go about it.

I might join you all on Monday, if I have not had enough of seeing cars by then

14 on Sunday. I won't be on their list as "TIPEC"

Well, three of us managed to get to the DHF on Saturday and, thanks to Sean, we all got out on the track parade - me on the Saturday and my son & his father-in-law on the Sunday.
We were joined in the TIPEC area by another three Porsches on the Sunday, including Glenn in his pristine S2.
Attached are some pics of our cars on the TIPEC stand and on the track courtesy of Robin Astle - thanks Robin.
We all had a great weekend, looking forward to next year.

Pleased that you all enjoyed the weekend

It was a good weekend.

I suspect there were more of our members there but that they got sucked into the parking singularity that was the PCGB area. PCGB had people stationed over much the infield directing anything with a Porsche badge on to park with them. I had to say "no thank you, I don't want to park with you" four or five times whilst looking for the TIPEC area.

You would have thought after the Silverstone fiasco that they would have learnt the lesson
