Re: BMWCCGB Zedfest, 20 – 22 July 2012, Silverstone Circuit
myredzed, got 2 questions... I want to bring my son, who will be 12, so if I buy the discounted Saturday tickets I get 2 adult early bird entries including the vpass for £50, bargain as Wee Bing can use an adult ticket I assume. However if I buy the normal single adult ticket plus a child ticket it's £45. So -
- do I need the vpass to get infield, and so won't be part of the 500 if I don't have one ?
- is there a car club deal for 1 adult and 1 child, or am I stuffed with the full-price discounted ticket ?
Sorry if I sound like a tight git, but it's more on principle than anything else - I just dislike the niggling feeling that I am paying for something, but getting less benefit out of the transaction than the seller. Of course, if I have no choice then c'est la vie, but there's no harm in asking

We are planning to go. Add us to the list.
We should have a number plate for our Z just in time to buy a pair of tickets and a vpass.

I pondered the same thing but then went for the ticket to be sure of being part of the whole event.

Mine are vetrans of a few forum meets, so they know what they're in for, and thay've been made very welcome by all the forumites we've come across. Otherwise 2 * 15 year old girls tagging along could have been tricky Everyone's welcomed at our meetsBing wrote:

Just to confirm what others have indicated, you'll need to get the deal with a vpass (i.e. with the adult tickets) to get into the BMWCCGB infield display area and to be part of the parade lap.Bing wrote:myredzed, got 2 questions...

Re: BMWCCGB Zedfest, 20 – 22 July 2012, Silverstone Circuit
I've been keeping the first post of this thread updated with who is attending from z4-forum (there are also links to other z related forums so you can see participation from those too). I haven't put where people are travelling from however if you fancy meeting up and arriving in a group then perhaps you could start a separate thread that's convenient for where you are departing from. One example of this sort of thing is here on zroadster.orgJembo wrote: Are you able to provide an updated list of who's attending & where they're travelling from the forum?

Just been on the Silverstone Classic web-site. I'm looking at Satruday only for two adults in one Zed - is the discount code price (£54) - per person (so £108) or per car (so £54)...?
