RE: Silverstone Sunday Service 04/03
Discussion
So I was on the original list, well within the 500 limit, but looking at the weather I chose to remove myself off the list as I know others did too. An hour or two later the service was cancelled but there was talk of rescheduling for a different day. I saw that it had been rescheduled and added my name to the list, again well within the 500. Now I've just found out that I've been removed and I'm now on the reserve list at 632?? Just trying to work out if that's fair or not, lol.

In the same boat here unfortunately. It's what we get for being courteous to those on the original reserve list and removing ourselves in good time.On the plus side, I think there is still every chance you will make it in to the top 500, so long as those that got automatically put on the new list but can't make it do actually notice there's a new list and remove themselves. Perhaps an early email should go out PH?

That's a good point, there's probably people on the new list who don't even know they are on the list, and people who think they are on the new list, and now aren't On the plus side, I think there is still every chance you will make it in to the top 500, so long as those that got automatically put on the new list but can't make it do actually notice there's a new list and remove themselves.

That was clarified about 10 posts ago, if you have a track session booked but are on the reserves list, you're fine. 
Without wishing to upset anyone, but here goes with my two pennies worth...
So, add yourself to the SS list (any list, not just Silverstone) and then, hey, take yourself off???? Why... Seems to happen a lot.. BTW, this is a
rhetorical statement.. Please don't reply to this with some rubbish cliche!
e.g.
My mum said I can't go
I'm washing my hair
My car broke
Yawn, yawn...
And I can't believe that the PH staff lay on free (yes FREE!!) access to some amazing venues and some on here b
h about it and complain.... WTF!
Massive thumbs up to the PH crew for all their hard work...
I for one massively appreciate your efforts.....

Don't take your name off the list if you think it's going to be cancelled. Lesson learned.Master Bean said:

Point taken, but why leave your on the list for an event that is not going to happen, taking my name off made space for those that believed that may still happen, there is no lesson to learn, someone needs to remove their thumb from their balloon knot, it may take you a while to de code that one.GregK2 said:

Looking at the PistonHeads track sessions: Is there a reason the 11:55 session is labelled: PISTONHEADS NOVICE CAR TASTER and the other sessions are labelled: PISTONHEADS NOVICE GROUP?
Not sure why it has been labelled that way but no reason, it's definitely still one of ours!doorman said:

You will easily make it in. I was in the 700s a couple of years ago and got in by the final Saturday lunchtime.Gassing Station | Events & Meetings | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
