How much are the track passes?
I'd like to take both my cars around the track.

Just checked (here - http://www.heritage-motor-centre.co.uk/ ... index.html), they are £10.00 for three laps, but the 2pm slot is now full.

Hope this helps,

I'm just gonna book my tickets for Gaydon and after consulting the April issue of All Tourque I see that adult tickets will be £6 each. Is there not any discount on the child tickets? Would I get away with ordering three adult tickets at £6 each rather than pay £7 for a child's ticket?

I preferred it much better in the old days of Walton Hall when you just paid per car. :)

Also, what's with the family tickets? 2 adults and 3 children. Is this just for the Cayenne owners? (I can't think of any other Porsche that'll seat more than 4 people however small they are). :lol:

Yes you will get away with that.

We could go back to the old days of paying by car but for Walton Hall it would now need to be £70 a car. :D

The thing is traders have no interest in standing in a field any more Stately home or not! And to be honest I don't either & to that effect we are doing one "stand in a field event" this year, Bromley Pageant.

Do you need any marshalls/helpers on the day? We'll be happy to help when not on track.

Any help gratefully received. I'll touch base with Geoff Cox, who is the Chief Parking Warden and see what support we need.

Hi guys,

As this will be my first Porsche Show, what is the general format? I am bringing along my 1985 911 Cab, cleaning in progress, which I am happy to have on show. Is there a dedicated area for club members / Porsches only, or is the whole event in effect a big show?
