Wow looks like you need a bigger venue ! I am no 98 in the reserves !

[Garlick]

This is one of our biggest!

[neilbauer]

I'm 44 on reserve list, Will be my 4th SS. I'm not too worried as they drop like flies on the last couple of days

[jimpson]

Looking forward to it - if anyone is local then I'm meeting a few people at Beaconsfield Services (Shell Garage) at 7 to head up.

Normally yes, but not sure on this one. Looks like it will be well attended.

But if if you are on the waiting list and turn up at 11 am, there is chance (not guaranteed) quite a few of the early contingency will have left so making space.

[gingerjust]

this will be my first Sunday Service, really looking forward to it.
A couple of questions?
1.how do they know what cars on the list to allow in? i.e do you need to print anything off? number or log name?
2.I live 40 minutes away how busy does it get in the morning? when i usually go to silverstone F1 or tourers or classic i like to be in early, is it worth being an early bird? and watch the cars arrive

Cheers

Justin

[Andy_sx]

No, you'll just be asked your forum "name" on arrival and ticked off a list by a friendly member of thr PH staff.

I am only waiting for 87 people to drop out now for me to be able to attend my first SS!!

How far up the waiting list do you think you should be before turning up hoping other people don't? i live fairly locally so it's not too inconvienient.

[TEF2one]

With over 130 over guy in front of me in the waiting list I don't have much hope.
I'm a new comer to PistonHeads, can anyone tell me if there will be another event like this? and when?

AFAIK about 5 or 6 events every year, different locations, date for each one to be announced just a few weeks weeks prior.

Do a search for last years events.

[pugs9000]

Was 58th on the reserve list now sitting at 54, there is a chance!

[Squadrone Rosso]

I'm 54 on the reserve list. When do we know if the reservists make the final cut?

Cheers,

Simon

As folk drop out and remove their names from the list, you will move up. Keep checking until the morning of the meet.

If 2 wheels are exempt from the list I will have to take my bicycle out for a ride, assuming there isn't snow on the ground by then!
