British GT Championship – Silverstone 500 Ft. Supercar Sunday

The race itself is on Sat. and Sun. but the Supercar Sunday display is only on the latter as it sates.

Based on the info from Mike last year, found similar package for this year as well.

It was nice atmosphere especially when you can relax at one of the lounge/hospitality while watching the racing action as well as the pit crew activities with the timing screen.

Extract of the info;
Supercar Sunday Display

On Sunday of the British GT Championship, we are planning a huge display of supercars. If you own a supercar, we will give you a pair of FREE tickets for the event to come down and take part in our display!
All you need to do email socialmedia@silverstone.co.uk with:


Your full name
Your address
Details of the supercar you wish to display
A picture of your supercar

We’ll then email you an e-ticket before the event which will give you access to the circuit, parking in the display area inside the circuit and entry to the private lounge.
Please follow this list (http://www.supercar-driver.com/qualifying-car-list/) for guidance on which supercars are eligible. If your car isn’t in this list you can still email us with details and we will get back to you with a decision.


Our NSX is listed as the eligible supercar for this offer.

The organisers emailed me back entry confirmation from their socialmedia Silverstone system within a couple of hours applying, that was on the 16th May.


And spookily at 4.30 today I received this email:

Hi, Gary.

According to some of the owners, they received the email today so please check your Inbox or wait for a few days.
There is a pdf file attached to the email body and this may trigger your spam filter or sorting conditions so please check your spam or appropriate folders as well.
Not sure I can make it this year but will see....
So many things to be done and my boss is flying back as we speak after 5 months so have to move all the parts now.....

Thank you.

Hi Guys

I also chased them today and received my voucher soon after.

Thanks for your posts and Kaz a special thanks for your original post. If the sun comes out it should be a great day :-)

I'm hoping to run into one of my old endurance karting rivals, Rick Parfitt Jr. who is now racing a GT3 Bentley!!

[Updates Saturday, 9th, PM: One lane is now open on the Northbound so not full closure but may change for tomorrow so please check.]

You may be already aware of this but in case you are heading Silverstone tomorrow using the back route…

A5 Northbound is closed until Monday for roadworks in/around Milton Keynes.
There are several roadworks around Whiltlebury but not a huge event like F1 GP so either go through the village or A413 can be used addition to the A43 bypass.

After an overcast and relatively cold early start to the morning it soon warmed up in time for the parade lap at about midday. I have to say it was without doubt the slowest 3 laps any car could have done st Silverstone, averaging about 20-30mph, health and safety gone mad I reckon and totally the reverse of our great 25 year annervsary parade lap tussle just 3 years ago.
Unbeknown to me I drove up with a completely knackered battery after starting it after unplugging the digital pulse charger, quiet an experience having to jump pack start it in the middle of a grid locked Blackwall tunnel I can tell you.😱
I thought I'd let you know Kaz that I managed to get back without cooking the alternator, good to see by the way.
I was pleased to see lots of smiley happy faces yet again looking around my Senna tribute display NSX.
I don't think I will ever get used to the lovely comments people give me about it.

Pride, it's your turntable that's killing your battery….
Also, despite using LED, too many of them will add up for current consumption.

Joking aside, glad to hearing that you managed getting back to your place.

Hope your ACG is fine and just dead battery.
If it's a Honda one, should be covered under their warranty as I think you said it was only like 18months old.


Hope everyone had good time.
