I would recommend this, it clashes with Revival unfortunately.

I went in 2012, and it was a great day out, even my long suffering girlfriend (who is not a car lover) enjoyed it, this may have been affected by our trip to Bicester Village afterwards though....

Ahhh, the old shopping bribery at work again. I'm sure PH must help a lot of shops when we hold Sunday Services hehe

Is the shuttle bus just for those that don't want to walk or is it the only way to get between the SS and circuit? Are the tickets roaming for all the grandstands?
Shuttle bus will be optional. Walking will be fine but obviously take longer. Am sure there won't be any allocated seating for this sort of event.
How far are we talking? I've not been before so don't know the lay of the land.

Looking forward to this but the XX cars on track at 09:00 are the big attraction for us; can we arrive/park from 8:30ish so we can get to a good viewpoint in time?

Is the "parking just outside the circuit" the big car park on the left of the drive in to the main gate? If so, then it's not massively far to walk but would be good to know the times the shuttle bus will start running.

Thanks for any more info, and thanks for arranging it! Dave

Went to the last one in 2012 and it was a really good day. Now if 44 of you coukd decide you're not going so I can that'd be great.

Really enjoyed the last one I went to in 2012. Went to the 40th anniversary one too a few years back which was insane.

Nice mix of cars on the guest list so far, just need the weather to hold out. Looking forward to seeing a LaF up close plus the XX cars are always glorious to hear being chucked about.

I've had to pull out so have deleted myself from the list.

Unfortunately the person taking my place is one of those people who have never contributed to PH ( 2 years and with zero posts).

Something should be done about this, I think it unfair to regular contributors who are missing out.

Coming. Could I also ask about the parking? Is low ground clearance friendly and tarmac? The G33 isn't great on grass.

I tend to agree, but at what point do you make the cut off? I'm hardly a frequent poster, but I go to every PHSS where possible and read the forums diligently, contributing where I can. Maybe the person who took your spot is very shy, or not comfortable with computers, and is much more chatty IRL? Or maybe when they come along they'll realise what they're missing and become a huge contributor?

Probably unlikely, I know, but that's the other side to it.

Low ground clearance shouldn't be an issue unless you normally have problems getting into car parks.

With regard to low post counts and SS attendance, we don't stipulate who can and can't come, that is the beauty of SS's, they are open to all whether they post on the forums or not. All they need to be is a member of PH as they are for the whole community.

Yes, they can be bought from the ticket office next to the main entrance thumbup

To the best of my knowledge, our parking area will be the car park to the left of the main entrance as you drive in.

Sorted. Cheers! Are you collecting money for a charity like last time round?

No worries, we've not got any plans for that at the moment.

Thanks: just thought with talk of shuttle buses we may have been on grass across the road.

I've mentioned this before also in feedback to PH about SS lists n stuff.

In at 622 BTW.

I never give up hope of getting into the magic 500 till the last minute.

Well I am in, but with regards on these events, you do have to be a bit of a ninja!!!!
Looking forward to it, as a lot of these cars will be put away for the winter.

Well my son will be filming and taking photos, and putting them up on YouTube his name is pandaa mann please look.
If he could get a ride in something special would be nice and go towards his Art, as he has just started year 11 at school.
Thank you.
