Silverstone Classic 29/30/31 July 2016

Post by Sean Smallman »

We have been attending the Classic for years and as usual we will have a Club display on the infield.

With over 4000 cars on the club displays, packed grids from 09:00 until twilight and live music on Friday and Saturday (Stranglers). What is there not to like, yes its busy and you need to get in early to avoid the queues.

BuyOneGetOneFree tickets with an infield pass for the Club Display are available until 31st May. Early Bird discounts apply until 31st March. The code is printed in the February and April issues of All Torque.

Every year we receive posts on here and emails after the deadline with requests for tickets & infield passes.

BOOK IT NOW OR MISS OUT

I say this every year, the saving on the tickets for Silverstone Classic alone cover the cost of your membership for the Club. :violent1:

To date we have 14 cars booked to attend. :bounce:

My 944 will be there all 3 days. Out of curiosity, is the car left on the stand or do i take it to the campsite each evening?

Cheers for answer. Depending on distance it might not be the worst thing to leave it there. more space in camping site.

Just booked for all 3 days
My rides: 02 Boxster S - perfect in many ways although mine has been likened to Trigger's Broom; 1988 911 3.2 Sport - so much feel and character, a challenge to drive well, a flawed diamond in many ways, but every journey is an occasion

Just booked the 4 of us for Friday and Saturday.

Given the camping a miss because it's frankly a joke charging us £150 for the weekend on top of the £100 entry.
