Talk about last minute - GOLD CUP STAND APPROVED

[richiep]

Just had an approval for the club stand at the Oulton Park Gold Cup. Nothing like leaving it till the last minute!

Obviously, people may have made other plans at this point but it is now an option to get a free club stand place via the MSV website display car booking system. When it asks if you want to display with a club, you should be able to select The Z Club of GB from the drop-down.

I’ll post a full step by step to booking later on if people want/need it. I’ll probably go for a day if the weather is okay.

 

[Rob Gaskin]

Wow. Weather is ok I think. I need to get out of other plans.

 

[Mr Tenno]

Anybody who is going - please take loads of pictures of the Zeds - we need some 2020 pictures for the front of the site!

 

[Tony Mc]

It will be my first journey over 200 yards in the car I have had for 13 months.

[Rob Gaskin]

is it this weekend?

Yes, Sunday and Monday are the race days, Saturday qualifying.

 

[Rob Gaskin]

I've booked for the 3 days but will only attend on one. Not sure which yet.

 

[MaximG]

That’s good news

 

[jonbills]

How does it work? Do I buy a ticket and THEN I can book onto the club stand? do I need a code our anything like that?

You need to have an MSV account created, which is necessary for all ticket purchases or show pass requests at MSV venues.

You don’t need to buy a ticket - you just need to apply for a free display pass as a club member. Once you are logged in to your MSV account, go here:

https://shop.msv.com/DisplayCar/Register/OP-20-Gold-Cup
Accept the terms and conditions and then on the next page select displaying “with a club” then choose The Z Club of GB from the drop-down menu. On the next screen choose your day (only Sunday or Monday left). Then select your vehicle (which you should have saved on your MSV account). Your request will be submitted for approval. They are processing them quickly, given I requested my pass earlier on and it is already approved. After approval you will be able to finish the process and print your pass. Passes are reg-specific and passengers will need paid tickets - only the driver gets in free.

hmm no luck. I'm signed in and go to that page and I get "unfortunately this event has not been setup for display vehicle registration yet".

 

[Rob Gaskin]

Jon, as far as I remember when you are in your account go to 'Show Car' and it will give you a list of events to chose from. Then you select the club you are showing with. It worked for me.

 

[richiep]

That link was part way through the process - maybe it doesn't always work right as a result. I thought it might save a few clicks...

Anyway, once logged in to your account, select from the Menu "Events & Tickets", and then "Show Car Applications". That should show you events you are registered for already but also shows you events you can apply for. Click on the Gold Cup there and proceed as per what I noted above.

I have just spoken to MSV and they said entries are closed and only Rob & Richie will be able to get their Zeds on site.

Really? FFS. I only just received the email from MSV yesterday! What a shitshow. Chris Exley got an individual display pass so I guess that makes three, but dear me...

 

[Tony Mc]

The guy said it would have been an automated email to the club. They had to close all applications to give them time to plan the display area layout.
What day(s) are you going?

 

[Rob Gaskin]

Wow very poor situation.

 

[Rob Gaskin]

I went along today and it was great to be back attending a race meeting. I was the only Datsun, apparently Mr Ex Jnr went yesterday. I met up with an old Z friend Mark Warburton (not in his 240).

I don't understand that business about sorting the display area.

 

[Mr Ex Jnr]
