my plans have changed and at doninghton all weekend won't be off japfest now
Can anyone help! I basically messed up and forgot to get a ticket for the Sunday at japfest. Don’t quite know how I did this but does anyone have a ticket? Are the transferable? I’m at donnington on Saturday and really don’t want to miss the Sunday as know it will be a good one. Any and all assistance greatly appreciated.

Assuming Christian has a ticket then there's you solution Mike, you may need Christian to contact Japfest and tell them he's 'had mechanical issues' and needs to come in another suitable car and change the reg number to yours. Everyone should win from that, particularly if you want to slide him some cash :thumbs:

Thanks Steve, that would be great

Hmmmmmm, I guess I may be feeling charitable... Think of all the fuel I'll burn transporting it though! What's it worth to you? :conf2::p

Looks like we'll all have to remember to get to the infield during the morning to get this done!

'LUNCHTIME PARADES
If you have booked a place on one of the lunchtime parades, please follow the instructions given on your parade ticket with regard to walking to the parade sign-on tent in the infield (see site plan) once you have parked your car on your stand, and then collecting your parade wristbands etc. Please note, if you are parked on the GP/Melbourne Loop and are booked into a parade you still need to check in at the parade registration tent in the infield (once your car is parked in the Loop) but your car will join the parade from the Loop. All parade participants who are parked in the infield will join from the infield assembly area.'

Exactly what happen to me and I’m a lot gutted but appreciate the communication and hope someone else comes through as speaking to the ticket line they can amend someone else’s booking but can’t add another.

So, brakes won't be fixed in time for Donny :(

On the plus side, if anyone wants to use my parade lap spot, i can collect the wristband with my entrance pass as per instructions, assuming they don't actually log/check individual Reg numbers on the day, then should be OK :)

I’ll definitely have your parade lap spot if it’s not already taken? If I can I take a passenger you can jump in my car?

Mike if you can take toopys parade lap ticket for now as a few things have changed ie I’ve put my old wheels on so just need to test drive it this morning I’ll give you a bell either way,I think you might have to change the reg on the ticket anyway but I’ll Bell you more towards dinner time to let you know

No problem, seeing as I'm not in the Z, I'm taking a slightly more leisurely approach to leaving time, so i plan to arrive for around 9.30am :cool:

I think I'm nearly ready for tomorrow. Still a very long list of jobs I'd like to get done but that's not going to happen. Some of these will have to be finished for Spa in 2 weeks time but I can get away with bringing the car to Donny as it is and looking forward to it.

I'm the same but have managed to get the day off work to do them but at least none of them are major. Hopefully the weather will hold to let me do it. Looking forward to tomorrow - especially the drive from Bristol.:driving:

Had a little job to do yesterday to get the car ready for Donnington, turned out much bigger than expected :(

Looking forward to giving the car a good run and catch up with everyone. See at Michaelwood Paul.

Hello Chaps,

Well, after much uncertainty due to some health issues, hence lack of posting, all being well I'll be heading up to Ceders tonight. Addison (my son) will be with me and really looking forward to it. Fortunately, I'd book a twin room at Ceder so all good there, but just rang to get a passenger ticket and told I need to pay full price at the door tomorrow. If anyone has a spare passenger ticket, that would be great.

See you all tomorrow..

Cheers

Tim
