As last year, the Silverstone Classic media / test day is free to competitors- http://us12.campaign-archive1.com/?u...8&e=5499594c53
But from memory (and logically) you have to prove that the car in question is entered for the meeting......

I believe the test is open to spectators. Does anyone know otherwise?

Last year, the weather was beautiful and I got about 30 laps in......a load better result than I managed at the actual event!

Well I just phoned the Silverstone Classic general support line and they said that the general public are not allowed in the track for the test day.

Then you need to find a chum who is testing, there's bound to be someone on here. Before you ask, I'm undecided
 but I'll shout if I'm going.

 Actually any help I can get would be great. I am doing a project on the historic supertourers however there is practically zero chance of me being an accredited media so if anyone is willing to assist me, I would be most grateful. Thanks, Ben. |

2. Drive to circuit 3. tell Entry stewards you have parts/tools for car #whatever 4. Spend rest of day doing what you like doing most At least that's how I've done it before...... |

That's worked for getting a road car into the actual classic as well! But don't tell the organisers......

Expected this day to pass me by, but wasn't particularly bothered. Lot of standing around and little running on previous visits..... Now appears I may be dragging some cars up there and generally helping out with one or two of them, so any tenthers about, come and say Hi. I'll post which garage we're in after find out on arrival!

Certainly looks a packed event, but personally it is probably too big for me nowadays, I prefer the smaller scale events. A sign of age I know...

One of my favourite events - great cars , if ho hum circuit these days.What Can Am presence was there? The Can Am race should be a highlight and am hoping that the entry is healthy . Got to be healthier than the sports/GT race at Donington tomorrow anyway...

A link to the list of cars that were entered for the media day can be found in post #12. Can't actually remember seeing any CanAm cars moving though, but was preoccupied much of the time!
