UP FOR MORE IN 2016


• 29-31 July dates announced for next summer’s three-day festival
• 2016 extravaganza will build on Silver Jubilee successes
• More unrivalled grids, track parades and car club displays


After the huge success of this year’s record-breaking Silver Jubilee extravaganza, the 2016 Silverstone Classic will continue to set the gold standard in global historic racing festivals. Staged at the home of British motor sport, next year’s Silverstone Classic will run from 29-31 July, with tickets going on sale on Thursday 12 November.

The glittering 25th anniversary blockbuster confirmed the Classic’s coveted status as the World’s Biggest Classic Motor Racing Festival with record grids, record track parades, record numbers of car club displays plus, for the first time, a record attendance of more than 100,000 visitors. Building on that spectacular success, even more ambitious plans are already well advanced to ensure that next summer’s three-day Classic is even bigger and even better.

The packed race programme will again comprise all of Europe’s premier retro racing series including ever-popular grids for the FIA Masters Historic Formula 1 Championship, Super Touring and Pre ’66 GTs. Added to these established fan-favourites will be a very special Can-Am showdown to mark 50 years since the birth of the legendary North American-based sportscar championship back in 1966.

More exciting grids are yet to be announced, along with the key motoring milestones that will be honoured in 2016 by the unprecedented number of car clubs attending with special displays and evocative track parades. The live music line-up will also be confirmed in the coming weeks.

“With Status Quo topping the bill and so much happening both on and off the famous Grand Prix circuit, our stunning Silver Jubilee will be a hard act to follow,” admitted Nick Wigley, Event Director. “Every year, however, the Silverstone Classic just gets bigger and better, and next July we will raise the bar again. This really should be the first date you put in your new 2016 diaries!”

Ticket details – including Early Bird savings for those booking immediately – will be available soon. In the meantime, a full report of the 2015 record-breaker can be found on the official website

The PussyCat Dolls played the same year as Santana. At 5pm on the Friday night when they played there were more people entering Silverstone than leaving. Santana on the other hand on the Saturday night was poorly attended, which is a shame as it was a fab night.

Could be the quietest Silverstone Classic of all time - still less than 15 cars registered - now less than a month to get your club tickets.

Would free biscuits, tea and coffee help boost the numbers ?

The Sunday seems to be the most popular day and would be a good opportunity to hold THNOC Annual Meeting, any thoughts?

Enter the Concours d'Elegance and represent your car club.
A big part of the success of the world’s biggest classic motor racing festival is down to the enormous support of the car clubs. An exciting new addition to this year’s programme at the Silverstone Classic is the Concours d'Elegance supported by Classic & Sports Car magazine, which provides a chance for car clubs to take centre stage.
Cars entered, along with their car club details, will be featured on the Silverstone Classic website and will be shortlisted by a leading panel of judges which already includes F1 car designer Tony Southgate, TV Personality and Wheeler Dealer, Mike Brewer, as well as representatives of Classic & Sports Car magazine.

Nominations are now invited from all classic car clubs registered to attend the 2016 Silverstone Classic. Each club may enter one car into each of the following three classes.
1. Concours d’Elegance
The car which most embodies the spirit of the classic era in the composition of the body work, paintwork and upholstery.
2. Original and/or Unrestored Classic Car
The car which most accurately represents the specification of the vehicle when new, in every detail. This may be an unrestored vehicle.
3. Historic Classic Car Award
The car with the most impressive provenance in either continuous ownership or historic connections.

All cars entered in to the above will also be judged for the following classes:
4. The Judges' Special Award
An award with no specific or technical criteria but awarded to the car selected as the Judges’ favourite of the day for whatever reason.
5. The Spectators' Special Award
As voted by the public at the event and via the Silverstone Classic website during the lead up to the event. Voting will continue until 12 noon on the Saturday of the Silverstone Classic, 30 July 2016.
6. Longest Distance Driven to the Event
Classic car travelling longest distance to the Silverstone Classic under its own power.


Enter Now


(Use password SC16CE to view the entry form.)


Please note:
• Nominations must be received by midnight on Friday 3rd June.
• Nominations must be made by the car club coordinator, following permission from car owner, using the entry form at silverstoneclassic.com/whats-on/clubs/concours-entry using the password SC16CE
• Owners of nominated cars must be in possession of a weekend admission ticket to the event and an infield car club display vehicle pass.
Organisers will contact owners and the relevant car club co-ordinator of those cars shortlisted by Friday 1 July 2016. These cars must be on display at the Silverstone Classic (29-31 July) for all three days for spectator voting - if not possible, the owner must contact the organisers and their club. On Sunday 31st July, they will be displayed in a prominent location near the Village Green of the event for the award announcements.
Winners of all 6 Concours classes will be announced during the lunchtime break in track racing (scheduled for 11.50 – 13.05) on Sunday 31 July.

For any queries, please contact carclubs@silverstoneclassic.com

Just a reminder....
If you want to get infield car pass to display your NSX at the Club stand, the deadline for the Club ticket is 31/May, about 10 days left....
You will need the 'Club Code' to purchase the Club ticket.

Please remember, you won’t be able to enter the infield section where the Club stand is located without the Club ticket.

You will be asked to park outside even if you show up with your NSX….

Hi Mark
The deadline for the Club ticket which gets into the infield was 31st May.
Im not sure if someone can't attend if their ticket can be transferred. From memory the ticket which hangs on the rear mirror has the car reg but the stewards don't seem to check that to the actual car so if you can get a spare ticket and it can't be transferred you could run the risk

It's not unknown to have been able to get an infield pass after the deadline. Especially in this case as it's not all that long since it passed. Maybe Mike (sorepaws) can assist. I got one quite a few years ago contacting them directly if I remember correctly!?

Kaz-kzukNA1

Hi, marknsx.
First, please refer to the followings;

Infield vehicle display passes, issued with all admission tickets booked in association with Car or Bike Clubs, are for display vehicles only.
The infield vehicle pass will display the make, model, name of associated car or bike club and vehicle registration. It will only be valid for the vehicle that has been registered.
The cut-off for any changes will be 31st May 2016, thereafter at 'Ticket Collection' located in the Car Park where you will need to exchange the invalid vehicle display pass for a new one, if eligible to do so.


The ticket is sold through a company called 'See Tickets' and while it is prohibited from re-selling or transferring, based on the past event experiences, when someone could no longer attend the event, another owner managed to obtain the car pass on the day at the 'Ticket Collection' booth by exchanging the one from the owner who couldn’t attend.

Just contact the organiser or See Tickets for advice.
As Hagasan mentioned, you may be able to get something.

Thanks for the welcome Pride & Mike. Is there a deadline for arrival/ getting our cars into the club paddock each day?
(I looked on the Silverstone Classic site but couldn't find this info)

Kaz-kzukNA1
17-06-2016, 10:16 AM
Most of the information would be inside the Club ticket package that you will receive next month.
If it is going to be the same as the previous years, then;


The gate opens from 7:30am.
For infield Club car pass holders, you must arrive before 9:30 but most of the Club members will be there at much earlier time.
For Friday and Saturday, the infield vehicle movement are kept to an absolute minimum between 10:00 – 17:00 (another reason why you should arrive by 9:30 as it takes quite some time from the circuit entrance to the infield Club display area and there are so many spectators everywhere…)
The same rule applies to Sunday although it's kind of more relaxed for leaving the circuit bit earlier than 17:00. When it was raining, other Club owners left the circuit even before lunch time......

On Sat mornings (& Sunday sometimes) the traffic in has been atrocious, so they've tended to be relaxed about the arrival times, within reason.

Only ever had one "muddy" year that was 2012 - previously we had 3 years on the grass - as ever we will see, but just in case I have the "off-road" wheels ready.
We will have our "tent" complete with deck chairs and topiary :-)

Looks like all of the non-Club general admission tickets were already dispatched.
The Club ticket package is being dispatched at the moment.

As in britlude’s post #55, looks like one should receive dispatch notice from SeeTickets through email.
Not sure this is only for the people who paid the extra to have it delivered using Royal Mail Special Delivery service or includes the ones with standard delivery.
Hope everyone will receive the tickets in time....

Jeroen and I want to join you guys at Silverstone on Saturday.

Is there a group driving from London with who we can hitchhike?

And is here anyone with spare tickets which we could buy?

Whats the betting that the Alfa Romeo Owners Club spill over onto our patch :(

I think we should form an aliance with the S800 Club and keep the Alfa's away (ponders I wonder how many Alfa's will need to be trailered in?)

Water?.....if it's anything like last year you'll have plenty of that!

Actually the forecast looks much better than last year so have fun guys!

Hi Dimer,

I have a spare ticket for the weekend if you still need one?
I will be heading up on Friday morning so can't help with a lift i'm afraid.

No track this year, we were allowed on last year as it was the NSX's 25th production anniversary. The next chance is likely to be 2020

Good news - we are on tarmac again this year.

To find the Club stand go over the First bridge inside Silverstone and take a left at the "mini" roundabout - keep straight and you should see the club stand about 200m infront of you. With luck there will be a Red car there waiting to greet you. (there are a line of portaloos to the right of the stand area).

The stand will be just behind where you can see the truck.

Glad we're on the tarmac...weather's been pretty good recently so even with a handful of showers it shouldn't turn into the quagmire of a few years ago, but still rather not have to clean the underside of the car...

New battery went in last night so my car lives again (my fault for forgetting to connect trickle charger and realising 17/18 days later...shame I missed the glorious weather because of it though! :( ). Just sorting camera kit and a little detailing kit ahead of Saturday morning...look forward to seeing everyone again.

Neil - which car are you bringing?

It was also good to meet you Phil.

Another big thank you to Mike who had to deal with Honda and Silverstone on our behalf. Your hard work is very much appreciated by us all, plus a thank you to Emma for taking the AGM minutes.

As always good to chat and catch up with both old and new NSX friends. For those who don't check the blog posts, a post from KAZ.
