What tickets have you got? We were given a "blue ticket" but to,d that we could not take part in the demonstration runs. Is there a different ticket needed, and if so, how can we get it?

You need to contact Beaulieu and speak to Andy. Demo run pass is a Yellow card and you have to provide insurance details. I have received wristbands saying "Driver"

Ah cheers, I've tried email, but there have been no replies, I guess they are very busy.

Yes, I'll be there on the Sunday fishtailing down the demo hill.

However, the website now states:

"Please note: Due to high demand we have paused driver bookings whilst we send out passes and wristbands."

I'm there in a 997 turbo on the Porsche stand on the Sunday. I can't wait for this and weather looks good!

Is it a big queue usually to get in? I went to silverstone classic last year and got there really early as I heard queues were real bad.

Large contingent of TVRS heading there, see you there

[pompeyreece]

I'll be there, showing my Audi R8.

First post here, was at the Silverstone Classics last weekend with guys off R8Talk.com so looking forward to Beaulieu tomorrow

[S100HP]

Just a heads up. I went to Beaulieu yesterday afternoon, around 2pm (I live local) and there was a speed camera set up heading from the Royal Oak Pub towards the Heath roundabout (Dibden Perlieu). It wouldn't surprise me to see it again today.

[pompeyreece]

Thought it was a pretty decent event actually. No queues to get in, great location, free entry, weather held up and free catering for drivers all day. Quiches were amazing ;-)

I was there both days & absolutely loved it!

Weather was great (bar about 25 mins on Saturday), lots of really nice people & finally the variety of cars there was fantastic!

Loved their rev off, reminded me of Wilton's infamous rev off's but more organised, the demo straight action didn't disappoint one bit, topped off by a friend of mine giving in to temptation (mainly from me...) to unleash line lock on his Mustang in the final run of the weekend!, & i was even impressed by their SUV secret garden for having an Arial Nomad in the same place as the Range Rover SVR, Bentley Bentayga & Tesla Model X's in what looked like a jungle clearing or something similar.

Anyway, enough talk, here's my pics from a weekend that i might not forget for a while!
