Oh dear Seejay, keep your fingers crossed then but with the numbers listed to go it seems unlikely there will be a spare, but never say never.

Should've gone to Specsavers anology cones to mind!

I'd think they only care about the numbers rather than who uses the tickets when it comes to people on club stands (for any outings in track sessions they would care a lot more), but I'm sure Nigel or someone will correct that if I'm wrong.

Just phoned Kelsie. ‘Club’ tickets will be mailed either tonight or tomorrow. They’ve had an issue with their ticket distributor apparently. If they don’t arrive you can call them or on the day go to their ticket enquiries point at Donington.

I just noticed that the Public ticket have option to buy "3x Sprint runs" at £10 and "unlimited Sprint Runs" at £20...

Was this an option for the clubs - and do we have any info on the Sprint being run? Would love to have a go! :)

Also - I could not make it onto the same track session as others... IF there's any tickets going spare on the day - I'd be more than happy to take another slot of anybody's hands! :)

My track time details and passes just arrived but no entry ticket so I have emailed them.

Hundreds of people going to the ticket enquiries point is going to be mayhem.

As soon as the events team have any updates we will post on here. Meanwhile if you do receive an entry ticket then please post up.

I suggest that you print off your confirmation email just in case the entry tickets do not arrive in time, hopefully they will or else it is going to be Armageddon up there!
All the passes etc: appear to be coded and therefore once scanned that suggests the code will be voided so anyone using a copy will not get in.

Chris and I have been discussing behind the scenes regarding the Event on Saturday and suggest you all print off your Confirmation Email regarding Order Payment just in case your Tickets don't arrive in time :thumleft:

Am afraid as Kelsey haven't improved the way they run their Company that this could well have a knock on effect for our Club attending their Events again :!: :!: :!: :!:

Many thanks for all your support Boys and Girls =D>
