is it too late to add my name to the list for the lap around the track???
Re: BMWCCGB Zedfest, 20 – 22 July 2012, Silverstone Circuit
It's not too late, you just need to ensure that you've bought the tickets and v-pass using the club code (see first post for details). Let me know that you've done that and I'll add you to the listLittleC wrote:is it too late to add my name to the list for the lap around the track???

Wow that's better and there will probably be more spectators at that time.
Re: BMWCCGB Zedfest, 20 – 22 July 2012, Silverstone Circuit
I find to my alarm that my ticket order is not acknowledged by SeeTickets on their customer services centre. Both I and my son are going in separate cars, but I did the bookings. Because my son's Z4M Coupé has a different reg no. from that originally registered I had to go to the Silverstone Classic website to register this change. Out of curiosity I visited the See Tickets site to ensure that the details I had used were EXACTLY what I'd used to book (computers are really pedantic), and found that even using all the details confirmed in their email to me when I booked, they deny all knowledge of my order.
Anybody else tried this? Please reassure me that my money hasn't been sent to somewhere in west Africa...
Later: After scrabbling around on their website I found a 'phone number and, amazingly, they were on duty. It seems that they got my postcode wrong (missed a digit) and also my 'phone number. Now that has been corrected I am able to gain access to the site. Phew!

Hi Guys
I seemed to be missing the notifications of updates on this thread
Am I supposed to have registered my interest in doing the parade lap?
I might be odd but I would have thought all participants would want to do it, why else attend?...Ok other than to have a good old chinwag and oggling everyone elses zeds of course
Also does anyone know when we are likely to receive the tickets/passes?

Re: BMWCCGB Zedfest, 20 – 22 July 2012, Silverstone Circuit
From what I understand everyone who has bought the tickets/passes will be involved in the parade. The only curious thing I have read about it is an average speed of 95mph must be maintained.
See you there!

Re: BMWCCGB Zedfest, 20 – 22 July 2012, Silverstone Circuit
I've only just found out about this event this morning. I'm not a regular contributor to the forum and generally only read the model specific Z3M section. I really want to go in the Z3M but I've already promised to go with friends to BugJam in the VW camper, which is on the same weekend. Just my luck.
The Silverstone Classic website says car club discounts expired on the 14th June, although if you type in the code is still brings up the new car club discount options. Would it also be too late to get in on the parade lap? Although my car could do with a little tarting up before attending such an event. Maybe I'll just come along on the day anyway.
Really wish I'd known about this sooner.
Gutted,
Damon

Re: BMWCCGB Zedfest, 20 – 22 July 2012, Silverstone Circuit
Got my tickets through the post this morning so I would anticipate that everyone should be receiving theirs over the next day or so.
Just to answer a couple of the recent queries on here:
1. If you've bought a V-pass with your ticket (you would do this if you used the BMWCCGB code) then you'll be parked in the infield with the BMWCCGB and participate in the parade lap so long as...
2. ...you arrive between 7.30 and 9.30 (I *think* - I've yet to see confirmation from Silverstone but this is what is being indicated) and...
3. ...you've got your driving licence (bring both parts to avoid any confusion)
4. The discount period was extended to today so if you want to come along then I would urge you to book your tickets before the end of the day.

How late can I risk leaving this before booking? I may have to work away over this weekend, so I don't want to buy tickets until I know for sure (and it could be very last minute as in the Wednesday before).
