I hope I'm not too late and I have never participated in an event like this before and my car may well have had ost slot taken.
Its within the eligibility list - MK7 Golf R with a revo remap upgrade (in fact the revo remap was courtesy of Pistonheads via me winning it during one of your 2017 Christmas competitions.
Nope not at all. Your car is eligible so follow the link in my post and use the booking code, then update the Wiki with your details thumbup

robemcdonald said:
Not a great list is it?

Golf R. Come in.

Pagani Zonda. Bugger off.
It's fairly extensive and covers most cars we would generally get at a Sunday Service. Sadly, I've never seen a Pagani at one of our events, but now added in case you'd like to bring one biggrin

Can someone confirm that the eligibility list is only for pre 1979 cars ? as there is reference to this at the top of Eligibility List, sorry if I’m being dim.

Typed in the reference code and message cane back that car needed to be pre 1979 ?
It was originally just pre 79 but the organisers agreed to expand to the list as above. There should be some copy on the booking page about an eligibility list too.

Peugeot RCZ R
Added. Come on in!

Turbobanana said:
Polite suggestion?

Let people volunteer their cars, whatever they are, and pick 280 that you like from that.

Seems far less prescriptive.
The problem with that is it'll take a huge amount of admin, whereas an eligibility list is much less time intensive for us.

GeraldM said:
I can bring my RV8
Yep!

iSarg said:
Can I book a car parking space without the tickets as I've already got my weekend tickets?]
I'll ask the question and get back to you to see if we can get an infield parking pass.

MikeDB1 said:
Would a fully rally spec X1/9 from 1984 qualify? I wouldn't want to drive it all the way although it's road legal, so would need trailer parking somewhere as well
Would love that, yes please. I'll ask to see if we can help with car/trailer storage and get back to you.

PC Pete said:
Haven’t done this before but would love to be involved at the Classics weekend.
Any room for a 1963 series 1 fhc red E Type ? Please?? Not quite concours but pretty good.
Absolutely! All pre '79 cars are eligible.

JP Carriages Ltd said:
Hi. Interested in Joining the Silverstone classic in July.
I have a Mercedes CLK55 AMG 2001 with full Designo spec - 1 of 13 made in this colour combo - 11 of which were LHD
Does this qualify and what happens next if so ?
Cheers...JP
Yes it does, all AMG cars qualify. Just follow the link and use the booking code as per my post and then add yourself to the Wiki afterwards.

HiI can do any days you need it there. My son could do an RS6 if needs.

Andrew
Great lurking! And GT3 RS. I think you're putting your car up as a contender for our icon display? If so, this is the thread you need: https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

Same to treborcccp and TVRruss too.

Had my name removed from the wiki list. Am I not wanted anymore? confused
User error by the looks of it, of course we still want you! thumbup

iSarg said:
Any update on getting a parking pass for those who bought tickets early?
Sorry let me double check on this. I think you just need to contact customer services with our booking code and they'll allocate an infield pass to you, but will confirm ASAP!

The first event of this kind for me! Would either of a 2008 CL500 or a 2009 XK be of interest?
Excellent! Yes sure, either sound good to me. And you're just in time as club package booking closes tomorrow.

Just regarding infield passes, I’ve emailed silverstone asking who’s sending them out and they’ve said it’s the clubs responsibility. Could you confirm the position so that everyone is kept up to speed please.
I've just spoken to the Silverstone Classic team to provide clarification on this. Their team are aiming to send out all passes for our icon display cars this week. For anyone who has booked a car club package, your tickets and passes will be sent direct from the ticketing agent but you won't receive these until close to the event. If you booked a club package directly, you don't need to contact the team to request a pass.

For the exceptional requests where a small number of members have asked to be moved from other clubs or from general entry tickets into our club space, the car club team at Silverstone Classic will send you your infield passes directly. Please note: This closed on the 30th June so no further requests can be fulfilled.

Any further questions post away here – not long to go now! smile

Should I be worrying that my parking pass has not arrived yet?

If yes, who can I contact about this?
If you're still waiting on your infield parking pass, email carclubs@silverstoneclassic.com and they'll be able to help. I'll be on-site as of tomorrow morning so if you haven't heard back by the end of today, let me know and I'll see what I can do!

Zippee said:
Anyone know where the ph display stands will be? Inside tbe central part (over the bridge) or on the outer part?
We're taking over the Paddock/Woodcote Cafe to turn into the Pie & Piston. This is directly behind the National Paddock. The icon display and our car club parking is immediately outside the Pie & Piston (zone 4). Come and say hello! wavey
