If your name is not on the list and you have ordered a ticket, please PM me as soon as possible. My computer was on during a lightning storm and a lot of my data was lost as a result.
Sorry about that. Currently I have 7 tickets without a name on them, including the 2 from Philip Stainton. Will be on line Sunday through Monday.

I have not got mine yet, but as the cut off date is June 1st, the club office
will probably be waiting and posting them all at once.

Tickets are ordered at the club office. I extended the cut off date up until Thursday afternoon this week, so you still have chance. We order the tickets only when we have committal from members. That way we do not spend unneeded cash. I have ordered a few extras, in case someone misses the deadline.
Please contact me by PM if you have not placed an on line order by Thursday evening 2nd June.
The ticket tokens will be emailed to you and you can then exchange them on the day (or before if we meet up anywhere) for real tickets. No tickets will be sent by mail!
It costs on average £3 to send anything by mail from the club office, due to staff time and postage + envelopes etc, so we do it by email.
Should be a good event.

Some people have been unsuccessful in accessing their account on the web site. If you are one of these let me know by email and I will save you one of the few that I have ordered extra just in case.
Must have your inquiry by Wednesday next week on a first come first served basis. Only 8 available.Cry
I will need name, membership number and email address. Your ticket will be reserved after you pay at the office.

Hi Howard

I would like to come to this event if you still have some spare tickets. I'll probably bring my dad for a day out as well. Is it 1 ticket per person or per car? Thanks.

The car places referred to are the location of the club spaces. "They" refers to the organizers.
Just roll up and you will be directed to the correct space.
Its difficult to organise a place to assemble as the Castle is located bwteen two access poiunts north and south. The preferred entry is from the A64 south oif the Castle. Watch it as you arrive and keep left and slow! The road has lots of hidden dips that make visibility difficult, especially near the gates.
Paul - the office put you on it and so did I. Typo on my part. Now an extra ticket to spare, plus Nick has one also.

For the lazy ones, you can arrive up to 10:00 am. However, there will be long queues, and someone will have to stand at the entrance to hand you your tickets. If its raining that will be a problem, so please come early.
I hope to be able to sort out the ticket pick up, but their office is closed today. Will be writing to all ticket holders tomorrow to give you all the latest update, and will post it on here.

Anyone who intends to arrive after 9:00 am should ask for their tickets to be mailed to them. Otherwise it means that someone else will have to stand in line for an hour waiting for them.
Send me your membership number and or or your address if you wish for your tickets to be posted. Deadline Wednesday Noon to give me chance to send them. Cost will be £1.50 extra.

Absolutely, and thanks as well to you Steve, the other concourse judges and other members of the team.

Without the time and effort spent by all the organisers of these events, the rest of us would not be able to enjoy them.

Could have done without the best part of a mile down the very dusty track to get out and the rain on the way back though!

Thanks for everyone who came. Without people like you, there would not have been an event.
I am not sure that the site is totally suitable in view of the bad access down a narrow road, and as I waited to give out passes, I did hear lots of unsuitable language coming from many of the people who owned the really old cars, (not BMW Owners)  as they boiled away their water. However, despite this, we will support the event next year. One thing though - its the last time that I get up at 5:00am and sit by the roadside from 7:00 am until 10:15 handing out passes. Next time the cost of posting will be added to the cost of the pass and it will be posted to you.

For those who won a trophy in the master classes, I now have them and they look great! I will be contacting you with a view to presenting them as soon as possible.

I don't think anyone would complain about adding the cost of postage/handling to the tickets. They are  significantly discounted from the on line price anyway and would still be cheaper.
