We haven't got the budget to buy extra tickets (it costs us to attend, and we make no money from going there), and we can't expect owners to pay for their own ticket to go on our stand.
I totally understand that the organisers need it to be profitable, and can't give too many tickets away, but considering the amount of promotion we do for the show before and after the event, plus having the mag there as an 'attraction' far outweighs the value of a few extra tickets!
We are sending a snapper so will be running a full show report on it as usual. And will continue to support the show editorially, and with pre-show coverage next year...
Shame that Dan but I totally understand where your coming from as very fews events thesedays actually wave attraction fees and all clubs have to pay to exhibit their cars at these shows even though they are the attraction in the first place
