err, what am I doing wrong here?

£47 for 2 people as per above. I tried booking 2 Adult tickets for Sunday, £53 each, added the code (it was accepted) but £0 discount, so £106 for 2 people not £47.

Am I being thick?
Sorry I could have made this clearer – when you land on the booking page, you need to select car club packages and not general admission. The prices are from £47 for two people, which is for Friday – Saturday and Sunday are a bit more expensive.

Code doesn’t work here either.
Did you try that for general admission tickets or the car club packages? I've just tested it now and works fine for me.

Any chance of a discount code for PHers who have been members for 20 years but not lucky enough to have a 'worthy' motorcar?
Not at the moment I'm afraid, the discounted packages are just for cars eligible to park in our club space. Were you thinking of bringing your classic Mini? I'll add that to the list now!

Probably being thick here, is that any form of Jag F Type and/or another kind of Jag R or only an F Type R?
No worries but yes, any F Type or any R/RS Jaguar model.

Truckosaurus said:
Sadly it is only running a 5 litre fuel tank you would take all week to make the journey biggrin

I shall resign myself to buying a muggle ticket.
Now that would take a long time! Must buy an eligible car (or bigger fuel tank for the Mini) for next year hehe

Is a 2011 e89 zed4 eligible?
Go on then, I'll add to the list!

@Ben, what's the "Car Club Code"? (requested by Silverstone post-booking to register the car I'll be bringing to display).
That should be our discount code 2020CCD065.

Ok, so I've run the numbers for Saturday and it comes to £81 which is £10 more than the normal gate price. What part of the infield will does PH have as a matter of interest?
They've changed the website in the past week so our link above was just going to general admission tickets – follow this new link for car club packages. That'll get you infield parking and two adult tickets for £81 – compared to £71 each for general admission.

We were outside the cafe behind the national pits in 2019 when we took it over as the Pie & Piston, although that's unlikely to happen this year so we may get moved elsewhere.

Hi Ben,
Would a GR Yaris be eligible? Looking forward to this, great event.
Absolutely! We first created the list in 2019 and honestly haven't updated properly for 2021. Will add it now!

Great to see so many people signing up! Looking forward to chatting nonsense about cars all day long and watching some racing, it has been far too long.

Not sure of I'm late to the party, is a 2007 1.8SR Yaris which is loosely related to the current GR yaris eligible?
Sadly the closing date to book was 31st May so the only option is general entry tickets now for 2021.

Hi Ben/Jack, I was on the 2020 Saturday list, but don't seem to have transferred over to 2021. I actually bought 2020 tickets ahead of the special deal, but was ok'd to show my R26 Megane anyway. Can I squeeze on with you all again please?
Assuming you have a club package that has transferred over, then of course! Just pop your name on the list https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...thumbup

I don't think they've finished allocating the clubs just yet but I'm pretty sure all club ticket holders will be sent instructions once it's finalised so that you know where to head to. Once I know for certain I'll post here but we may be waiting another week or two I reckon.

Parking instructions

Our final numbers for the PistonHeads club parking area are as follows:
  • Friday – 45
  • Saturday – 52
  • Sunday – 55
Our area is blue zone 4. This is in front of the Pit Stop Cafe where we were in 2019, in front of the National Paddock.

We're not taking over the Pit Stop Cafe this year – but watch this space for 2022. As a result and due to family commitments, I'm unable to attend for the three days so we won't have any PH branding. The space should be clearly marked with flags and you can see the location on this map here.

Apologies to those that attended in 2019 as this is a bit of a come down, but due to covid and other commitments it'll be no frills this year. I'm really glad though that the number of you booked on has grown and that you've all been able to make use of our club packages.

Your tickets should have instructions for circuit entry but if there are any other questions, feel free to ask. And fingers crossed we'll be back with more of a bang next year!

Was I psychic guessing Blue 4? I'm sure you'll find a volunteer to put up one PH flag? There must be someone local to you you can hand a suspicious package over to in a Tescos car park :P
It would seem so! biggrin Unfortunately all of our event equipment is in storage in central London but none of us actually live in London anymore so it's not easily accessible until we return to the office later in the year.

I think entry requirements will depend on lockdown fully lifting on the 19th or not, or if the event will need to be run as another pilot event.

I only had the club allocation information through a few days ago, so expect tickets will follow very soon but I don't know dates just yet I'm afraid.

Hi - very late to this.

Any room for a delightful Lancia Fulvia 1.3S?

Can make Friday - any room at the Inn (pie and Piston)?
Club package booking closed back in May I'm afraid! You can still book general entry tickets though, but you won't be able to get infield this year.

Just got the email from Silverstone

We can’t wait to welcome you to Silverstone at the end of the month for The Classic (30 July – 1 August). Your tickets are now available to download from your account – woo hoo!

Anyone need a ticket though? Still haven't shifted my spare one frown I do you good price

ETA: Just had confirmation that we ARE allowed to transfer tickets to other people. But it says it's to be done by the club secretary, same as plate changes.

@Ben Lowden, can you confirm?
It's not something that I'm aware of, but if all you need is my word that I'm happy for you to transfer tickets, then crack on thumbup
