Great! I will be signing up again for the 3 days.

Excellent! Don't forget to add your details to this Wiki once you've booked https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

Early bird rates: The early bird pricing will end on Monday (31st January) so if you're thinking about booking soon, then get your tickets booked this weekend to avoid the price increase.

Was about to book until I saw the cost... £109 for a Saturday only ticket. Ouch! I know that admits 2 people and 1 car but if you're by yourself as I will be thats a heck of a price

Find another single (esp. if they don't have a car to show) who'll take your BOGF ticket off you. If you don't know one now, there'll be someone looking for a ticket before August and they'll happily pay 1/2 if not more making your ticket £55 or less

It comes as 2 tickets? I thought it was just one that admitted you and the car - in that case thats a good idea

Sorry for the delay: Yes deffo 2 tickets, it needs to be as many of us leave our cars on site if there the whole weekend and camping so you need the ability to walk in and out of the gate

Prices are set to rise again on the 1st of April so if you're thinking about booking, get your tickets booked this week to beat the price increase

This year Website seemed to imply that the ticket was associated with a car, i.e you had to arrive in the car with the primary ticket to get in. So in your case, if your car is already onsite how would they know?

Last year I bought retrorun tickets which didn’t seem to be associated with a vehicle - because on the sunday i took my daily driver, parked it in the public carpark and walked in, because I couldn’t be bothered to take the kit car and deal with the jam getting out of the inner circuit area.

What you get (got?) is (was) a car pass linked to your car and access tickets separate. Since we stated camping (5 years now maybe) we've always left the cars on site so we can drink at the music.
They'll find a way to make it work I'm sure. I had an email exchange with them bemoaning the fact that this year's pricing structure meant if you come for a single day on your own (as a few of my car clubs "senior" members would) it's cheaper not to bring your classic and they said they were trying to encourage cars to stay for more than a day.
