Would like to go to this one as not far down the road for me but at number 692 looks unlikely - hope all goes well.

Quite happy to take one of your cars down Mike

Or if you need a sensible person

Only noticed it through the TVS thread...

Anyway, Spitfire and I'm on the reserve list, although I have a funny feeling I can't make it as I'm in Wales... will check and remove myself if I am!

Counting myself back out again :P

You will get in, lots will drop out.

I may be wrong, but there was no where near 700 at Silverstone and the list was as good as full still on the day.
Its a shame if people dont go but leave their names on as others who want to go could miss out

I agree, but looking at the lists we were at 699 on Sunday morning and I'd say we got about 650 in. Trouble with the PHSS meets is that we never 'peak' with numbers as some leave before others arrive.

When we return to Silverstone we'll increase to 850 as the venue can obviously cope with that sort of number.

When I signed up for the last one I was at 820 on the list. Ended up at 640 something. Plenty of people drop out

I am at circa 680 so likely to miss another PH SS

You will easily make the list.

You only need 80 people to pull out to be in the event. That's only 13%. You're pretty much guaranteed that many people will pull out

Speaking to Steve Gray (brooklandsbasher) yesterday, who runs AC Heritage up on the test hill at Brooklands - providing it'll be in the country, it'll be the UK debut of the AC Zagato (last seen at the Geneva Motorshow a few weeks ago)

He's keen to get the opinions of the Pistonheads lot as he'll be part of the distribution team in the UK - he's a chatty chap, so come over and say hello!

Originally the 2009 Zagato Perana Z-One?

You'll be sent home to collect the correct car. Don't forget V5, insurance and MOT certificate otherwise you won't be let in.
