Ian. Yes I did order just a one day (Saturday) ticket. Judging by the recent comments we should get them soon.

Your house is printed on the slip that comes with the Revival tickets (top right), but bizarrely not on the one with the 73MM tickets.

Ah yes, thanks for mentioning that! My card was stuck inside the sleeve, I would never have noticed it if you hadn't said.

Hello all,

Pablo from Goodwood here - just wanted to share a couple of bits that could be of interest to anyone keen on the Members' Meeting:

- If you are a GRRC Member and you book between 15 January 2015 and 15 February 2015 then you automatically get a free lunch at one of the 73MM test days (24 February – 3 March – 10 March). No code needed or anything, just book 73MM and your name is added to a list. Then you can just come down to the circuit to see the cars being tested and have a hot meal on us... (you must be a GRRC Member though)
- For non-Members (and indeed for Members if they want to join in) we are running this test day-based competition https://grrc.goodwood.com/members-meeting-73/harri... which runs until 4 February 2015. It's based around a pretty cool video recorded by Chris Harris too.

Looks like being a cracking occasion and some of the stuff I know is being announced soon should be music to your ears! Let me know if you have any questions about the above though.

Thank you Rich - I'm not the new James, no. There should be an announcement soon on that but I couldn't tell you what it will be!

Welcome, but what about those members that bought tickets last year?

Yup - the test days are open to all. Should be good fun for those who can make it...

I'm afraid the free lunch offer for Members is restricted to the 30-day period I mentioned - you are welcome to come down to the test days though.

Welcome Pablo!

So, as I bought my tickets the moment booking opened last year, like a good supportive GRRC member, I am actually excluded from getting a free Lunch, unlike the ones who might not even have booked yet?

Really?

I guess those of us members who supported the event by buying our tickets early on know what to do next year wink

Can you just turn up to the test days as a 'normal' spectator and stroll around?
Is there any charge? Would the 10th March date be busier as it is closer to the event?

Thanks
Steve
