Silverstone trackday - Page 7 - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

I was chasing up details for Silverstone (as I'm going on the first day) and the view yesterday was that this is with the agency that Nissan use and "the mailing is about to go out"

Something strange just happened.. well two things actually...

Firstly, I tried logging on to the Events page with my profile logon just out of interest (i haven't received any pack/invite/tape measure yet, ordered late June) and to my surprise it said my status was 'Invited'!!

Secondly, I went on to attempt to book a Silverstone date (after the front page said they all were booked up) and lo and behold I have booked 20th Aug afternoon! This date was the only showing as available.

I didn't even know what helmet size to select as I have not received tape measure, etc. so I just selected medium and will change later if I need to.

Has anyone else booked the Academy without receiving the pack through the post? Are you supposed to wait to receive this?

I received my envelope this morning, contained a Nissan GTR Silverstone card and confirmed that it was silverstone and had to be there for 08:15am, so early morning for me

Mine is in 10 days time and I'm getting worried about my neck now - I'm older than Jezza!

p.s. Apparently the Z drifting is at 85mph......

Just logged on to the race academy site & I think this has just been added? Don't remember seeing it before.

Might be because I am going alone that I did not notice it?

At least there is now an option to take a partner, however why did they not email all who had booked a day offering it as a cost option
