Stu Faulkner Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I'm going to Silverstone on the friday morning. i believe that your car has to be infield by 10:00 but I'm also camping, Ideas please. Is it worth going in a bit of a convoy nice and early to the campsite to set up and then infield or straight infield and set up later? I prefer the first option but I'm short of a convoy. (I will travel south on th A5 from A444) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingster Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 Stu, awaiting confirmation but Gary reckoned it's 10am Saturday that the car has to be infield. EDIT - oh yeah it was Dave not Gary that I mentioned it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Faulkner Posted July 10, 2016 Author Share Posted July 10, 2016 So does that mean that there are no cars infield on Friday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I would suspect that the 10 am rule holds true for all days, the difference on the Saturday is that if you're not on the infield area, you're not in the parade lap. I confess, I hadn't really thought of the Friday infield issue. I am going down on the Friday, but hadn't really planned on setting off before mid morning.

Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I'll be heading down on Friday also, not sure what time yet, and I was going to leave the car in the campsite and take it in on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Faulkner Posted July 11, 2016 Author Share Posted July 11, 2016 To be honest the event starts at 9:00 on Friday so I might go down on Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
