The BBC are always extra cautious with the weather. That rain may be forecast for 9pm but they still include it for Sunday. Here's hoping anyway!
According to the Met Office,

Time
0000 Clear Sky 13°C
0300 Clear Sky 11°C
0600 Light Rain Shower
0900 Medium-level cloud 15°C
1200 Heavy Rain Shower 19°C
1500 Heavy Rain Shower 20°C
1800 Light Rain Shower 18°C

I'm guessing anyone can turn up to the PH meet, or do you have to have one of the 150 special tickets? And would there be signs to the PH parking area?
I'm not too sure of this myself? I thought that the Sunday Service would be a chance to meet up, drool over a few cars and then watch the racing. The PH parking area on the map is infield by the medical centre. Could end up with some "in" and some "out".

Hmmmm....just been looking at the forecast having spent 3 evenings cleaning and polishing the car.

Well, what the hell. A car's meant to be driven so screw the weather!

This is a bit of a tricky one. The chaps at the BGT offered us a car park with 150 spaces and we have given them to 150 winners, so technically the car park is full. However there are a few winners going in one car, and i'm sure we'll have a few no- shows so there may be some spare places. This is a meet with slightly different criteria to normal as we are subject to Silverstone rules so we can't offer a space to everyone this time around as they simply don't have the space- hence restricted numbers and a guest list style entry. The remaining three rounds will have another 100 spaces available (250 total) but Silverstone was simply offered to us at the last minute and we took what we could.

We have e mailed out 150 car park 'passes' to the winners and you'll need these to get into the infield. Any PHer can turn up to garage 8C for the DAMAX Ascari team talk at 09.30 though and walk in access to the PH parking area is available

For those that have passes, I believe there are NO signs to the PH parking. Head to the main entrance (if you are diverted into another carpark by a marshall explain that you are with PH on the infield and need to go to the welcome centre to collect your ticket). Show your pass on the dash too.

For those that want to take a chance on some free spaces being available- please head to the welcome office (you will need to buy an entry ticket however) and ask for Alex Goy (he's our work experience bloke and will be handing out tickets in the office from 08.00). I will be in the carpark and will advise Alex if there are any free places. If there are we'll offer them on a 1st come 1st served basis- but i'm afraid I won't know whats available until I get there tomorrow.

Apologies for the numbers being restricted- i'd like to open it to all, but as I say, I am restricted by what is being offered to me by the race organisers.

Cheers for supporting this, we can't quite believe the response! And as I sit here looking a bit red after all the sun today, I can't believe it's going to rain tomorrow.....i'm bloody cursed!

Oh, and regarding name tags- no time now unfortunately, but not a bad idea for the next one.

See you there tomorrow

If anyone has one more ticket going spare, I'd be very grateful. I didn't realise we could apply for more than one in the original email, so I only asked for the one. Trackside and his brother were going to watch the GTs anyway, so I gave my ticket to Trackside, and Red Cabbage very kindly gave me his one for Skid Solo, so now, I've done all the work for those horrible reprobates and I'm the one who still has to pay to get in! frown

Decided to take my new car out on my first PH Meet (Northants run) and it turns out I cant make it because I am going to Silverstone to see some friends race in the Ginetta's.

I then hear that everyone is going to join us at Siverstone bounce Not only do I get to go see my friends race but I might also finally meet some PHers.

"I love it when a plan comes together"

Look forward to meeting some of you.

Hi all

Family emergency has regrettably stopped my attendance for today.

Deeply upset as it was going to be my first GTG with the Pistonheads team. Please either PM me or bell me on 07702 710 942 if anyone wants the use of mine!

Best wishes and hope you have a great day!
