Im doing Donington Historic Sat/Sun and got a deal through alpharooms for the Thistle Hotel East Midlands Airport (4star) on the Saturday night
At £71 for a twin incl breakfast. Didn't seem like a bad deal. Although it doesn't sound as much fun
As Jason's pad. :-)

I think cosy hotel and my good lady's first taste of Ddk may be in order.

However on second thoughts I fancy holding onto this one so maybe I'll stay at home with her

Going Monday in the 911, racing Sat Sun at Shelsley. :)

Great meeting and very local, hoping for infield parking at the top of Craners.

Tickets ordered inc infield pass for the Saturday. Used the Figaro code to get the 2 for 1, I'll probably be flying solo to the event so will potentially have a ticket spare if anyone needs.

See you all on the Figaro stand then :)

Unfortunately I'm no longer able to make this as my wife has organised a 'surprise' weekend to Barcelona......compulsory celebration apparently!

Guess I'll be catching up with you guys in Belgium :)

Cheers,

Well I've been rumbled by the organisers as I've obviously registered by tickets with a Figaro owners club for the 2 for 1 but entered Porsche as vehicle details. I've just feigned ignorance (easily achieved) and got the infield pass moved to the TIPEC guys. Apparently I am not alone! 3 others have done the same. :)

I was rumbled too and asked if I was a member of PCGB, TIPEC etc so that they could park me there. Said I was happy to park outside......

Yep, be there on Sunday - think there's a cut off date for infield parking so best get it booked.
Probably with something like pcgbdhf15 - or similar.
