Silverstone are delighted to be hosting the 2012 Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship on the 05,06,07 October*. This highly competitive championship promises fans no shortage of frantic, no holds barred action.

The BTCC will once again take place on the National Circuit and has one of the richest histories in British motor racing.
The Touring Car weekend features a busy schedule of racing, with many support races. Away from the track there is plenty to keep the whole family entertained.

tidy i'm really looking forward to this first btcc i'v been to

 

Oooh the mini crashed

Some proper 2 wheeled action there !! good pictures

 

you will love it as its a packed busy full petrol head day of motorsport

mini action for me was best race of the day

 

is this open, or are all tickets allocated?

 

deadline passed 2weeks back mate for club bookings, you can buy online or on the gate but its a lot more expensive

 

 

Really looking forward to this!!!

 

should have my carbon splitter ect ready by then

 

its going to be such a full weekends racing with entertainment too, it will be awesome

 

Brilliant! BUT... Mine and ginners name isn't on the list!!! :-( lol

Should be a fantastic weekend.

 

you were on my paid master list which is all that counts, but added them on here too

 

looking forward to this my mate is too

 

definately Tom as it will be way busier than ford fair and best of all is we will be one of the attractions with our cars

 

are we having the stand on sunday

 

yes sunday is the main racing day as you know and only a handfull are taking advantage of the whole weekend tickets/pass thing, so I will be driving up as early as I can on the sunday to get set up

 

Be good this!

 

I can only get tickets now at full price of Ł32 per day

 

Had news last night that all the car clubs attending this event were to be placed on the gravel in the dreaded B17 plots, no one wants that location when its ford fair / trax , so I have asked silverstone not to locate us there and they have accepted my request so we will be relocated to another hard standing position away from the other clubs TBA, strange thing is no other events organiser objected except me, so we shall see who is laughing come show day

 

Is B17 where they put the rsoc stands last year? The gravelly bit? Defo don't want to be there!

 

yes thats it Karl, I guess the other clubs event organisers dont have a clue, lucky for us I read the email of their plans

 

Cool

I would rather park on the public car park than park there again lol, that was shocking!!

Good job you're on the ball mate!

 

nice one steve, keep up the good work

 

Great news ! We have been located on Tarmac just behind the woodcote stand near the pits on a live raceday WOW! Could not have been gifted a better location and the only club near us is the FFOC

 

Well done Steve - Do you know if it's there for all 3 days? I am hoping to get there on Friday now as well as other days of course.
Cheers, John

 

behind the woodcote is that where they were doing a rolling road at fordfair?

 

thats spot is ours for saturday and sunday John and would imagine its just entry for the friday, 90% of folk from PF will only be there on the sunday


its not far, I have marked this satelite image with our exact location

 

That's a great spot to be in mate!

 

thats what I thought especially on a live race day

 

ALL tickets and special infield car club passes have now arrived, I will post out ALL tickets on Tuesday 25th Sept, do not lose the special windscreen security pass or your car will not be admitted to the stand as security on proper racing days is mega strict and nowhere near as slack as at normal car shows

 

You must be on the stand by 9AM at the latest.

Please read the following information from the organisers at Silverstone as security is very tight nothing like ford fair as they are strict

A plan of the Car Club areas are attached for your reference. Please take a look at the plans and cascade to your members as there are two different areas in use for Clubs at this event.

To gain access to Woodcote please proceed to the main entrance, Gate 19, displaying your internal vehicle pass, then turn immediately left before the metal bridge and follow the ring road round which bears right then take a right after the first toilet block and onto the Woodcote area. The areas will be loosely marked passionford and ffoc so please park up and keep cars stationary for the rest of the day as there will be a lot of public coming in and out of Grandstands in this area.

You are permitted to set up a small marquee/pop-up within your area. Please be aware that staking is not permitted in these areas so appropriate weights must be provided to secure your stands; we do not hold concrete blocks or weights on site.

The core trading times in the E-Zone are 9am until 6pm each day and vehicle movement should be avoided during these times. We ask that once parked, the cars remain stationary until you exit the site at the end of the day. Any vehicles found to be moving around the site during these times may have their vehicle passes removed.

 

Awesome work on this mate!!!!

I'm taking my little club to Rockingham this weekend for round 8 so will be all fired up for Silverstone!

 

its no problem lets hope it kicks off into a regular yearly thing as its going to be a mental day out in petrolhead heaven

 

I also have new passionford window stickers in stock so I will be bringing them to the event or if you buy them now I can include them with your tickets with no extra postage charge, they are Ł3 each or 2 for Ł4 and they are silver reverse cut for internal glass fitment 1" high 7" wide ideal for side windows as shown on Ade500s Cossie but without the watford part

 

ALL tickets and passes have now BEEN posted !

 

And I received mine today - Thanks for all your efforts Steve.
Cheers, John

 

Nice one John good to hear the royal mail is working correctly
