The 2 for 1 offer ends 31.3.15 and will also give ONE infield car display pass. The BMWCCGB only has one Code for this year which is (Club members only - see http://www.bmwccgbforum.co.uk/topic11786_post65402.html#65402) , see www.silverstoneclassic.com

Warning:- Please be careful when booking On line that you click the section which say's Bike & Car display, this will then bring you to a location in which you need to put the model and registration. This registered number plate will be printed on the display pass.

Unfortunately, if you make a mistake this cannot be rectified by the Club and there will be NO spare car display passes. This is not a decision made by the Club but has been made by Goose who are the organisers. This also has nothing to do with Silverstone who just rent the space to Goose or with Silverstone Racing Club. Both of those organisations have notified members that NO display pass means No car entry. Therefore, you will be directed to the public car park.

If you have an Alpina Car there is a display lap on Saturday 25th July 15 in the early evening. However, it is imperative that you inform myself or Simon Alcorn of your intention to attend. This will also require the Alpina model, Car number plate and Alpina Build Number (if known or from the manufacture's plate inside the cabin). Non pre registered cars will not be able to join the lap.Further instruction on how lap registration and wrist bands is being dealt with and will follow in a later communication. It is not as any previous years parade laps, so please do not assume you will turn up and be dealt with. In respect of all of this, these details are as a direct result of discussion for Alpina with Goose.

Mike, I am sorry I do not know who in the Club is specifically dealing with the Silverstone Classic, I am only involved with Simon in trying to organise 50 plus Alpina cars.

The Club has a meeting rearranged on 14th April 15 with Goose and I guess details such as where the club has been allocated and who is marshalling people will be announced after that. Hope to see you there in your lovely car.

Paul I suspect Simon will want some help from fellow Alpina owners as we are expecting 3 times as many this year than 2014, if not a few more.

The rest of the Silverstone event as far as the BMWCCGB is concerned I suspect is being dealt with either by the Club office or someone from the Board, as for who will marshal those cars I do not know, but guess we will be busy enough with the Alpina 50th year display.

Thank you, there is a lot of work being done behind the scenes to ensure that this is organised properly and to minimise the issues for many Alpina owners who will be attending for the first time as part of the BMW CCGB. There is a compilation of names, model type, email addresses and contact numbers which is not currently available. This then will be used to contact those people and confirm they have purchased tickets and indeed to have a valid Club display pass. They will also be given information regarding the parade lap and the procedure which will be employed to make participation as smooth as possible. I am sure it will be an interesting display and collection of Alpina cars as this number is rarely seen in the UK.

Our thanks goes to Clare Ironside and her colleagues at 'A' Plan, Thatcham. Clare will be contacting those Alpina owners who have submitted their details to us and she will be helping co-ordinate the documentation for the parade lap. Individuals involved will have now received an email from the Alpina register Chairman on how to proceed.

To the best of my knowledge they are not involved in any other aspect of the BMWCCGB presence at this event.

However, if anyone has not purchased a ticket or tickets with the display pass, they cannot be entered for the parade lap.

Mp888, are you a club member? 

If so please send an email to the forum administrators with your membership number and we'll change you to a club member.

Think about what you can do for the club, not what it can do for you...

No, it's not automatic, you manually register and the forum has no way of knowing that you are a member unless you answer the questions when you register, one of which is "are you a member?"....

Think about what you can do for the club, not what it can do for you...

Same here, it would have been nice to get the program in advance, all I got was a 'Digital Race Card'  and the program voucher.

I'll be there Friday around 10am, all day Saturday and Sunday.  Tho I'm not going in my car this year due to reasons of the car not being "up to scratch/dent" for a show like SC lol. Some people know about it. Can't wait and every year I enjoy silverstone for the different varieties of events and cars it has to offer. See you all there!

It does on an overall that it says it's raining. But it's going to be on and off all day looking at it hourly. So it's 50-50 clothing. Saturdays not bad after lunch time. Yet it can change and so I'll check Thursday night for Friday. But I still can't wait.
