Ultima factory said:
Feel free to join our 7am convoy to Silverstone on Sunday morning starting at the Hinckley Island Hotel.
There is a chance we at the factory can get your Ultima into the designated Ultima parking area too as we have a couple of spare entry tickets and one spare Ultima car pass, but can't 100% guarantee they will let your car in. Depends if we can charm them a little on the day. But you could always park in the public car park if they don't let you in with our Ultima convoy.

Regards to all,
Wow that would be great. Thank you. Should you need it my registration is X11GTR.

Hi
I will be at the hotel mid afternoon. The Ultima photographer Damian will be at the hotel as well for a few photos. As you can see from the thread there are quite few of us staying at the hotel and I'm sure we will end up getting together later.

Sounds great I hope to be there in time for a bite to eat and a pint or two smile

Just a thought. I have a couple of CB radios. If others have too, we can tune them to the same frequency to keep in contact during the convoy/show etc. Damian can instruct cars as appropriate....

But which silver GTR..........

If my passenger can get here for 5.30am (bloody hell, that's early!) there will be at least two at Hinckley Island Hotel for 7.00am.

Paul



PS. Is there somewhere an old chap can have a siesta to offset the early start?

Seems there is 3 of us so far that the set off point ain't good for so how's about the main convoy turn off into silverstone village brackley rd A413 and meet up in the village to collect others at 8am its aprox half a mile diversion and would be safe to park as the main traffic will be on the dual carage way Not this road just a sugestions Been as its the first year
Sure, just let the factory know your combined preferred satnav meeting spot a day beforehand and we shall lead the convoy to you, arriving approx 8am. Depart Hinckley 7am.


Regards to all,
I'm happy to meet the convoy at this point - it would be good for me!

I see on the club display ticket that there is "NO INFIELD MOVEMENT BETWEEN 10.00-17.00" Does that mean we can't leave before 5pm? I have to be home by 5 on Sunday!

For those staying at the hotel Saturday night the hotel only start serving breakfast at 7-00am. The hotel have advised that if we request an earlier breakfast, say 6-15am then they should be able to arrange it.

That would be great. I called to check breakfast and was told 7am. I would be up for a 6.30am breakfast (I can eat quickly to get 15 extra minutes in bed!!!).
Do we each need to request individually? I'll be staying with my 9 year old boy who will also be up for breakfast.

Cheers
Mark
