Have to agree with Kev.

This time last year we booked the national circuit which was about £75 I think, making the price hike to £125 seem reasonable for the full GP track.

I must say I'm disappointed that no information has come through and I too may well have booked a different date with a more interesting track....

£125 for a 1.6 mile circuit in March is taking the p**s.:mad:.....but at least I might be able to remember it :lol:

Also I bet the the groups will be huge as they will have been for a 3 mile circuit!!!!

I've just spoken with Gemma in bookings at FE. She has confirmed that the circuit this weekend will be the BRIDGE GP track. Not the ARENA GP, as it's not ready.

The PDF I received from FE on Jan 21st is just called "Silverstone Itinerary International & GP.pdf" I can't see within it any mention of the ARENA GP.

Anyway, it doesn't look like I will have a bike available for this weekend, so I won't be riding. Anyone interested in a place in the fast group? Available for the original price of £125, which means I'll even pay the 15% admin fee for the name change. If you're interested, let me know, send the money and I'll have the name changed over the phone with FE before Saturday.

Yep the same as the one I got, they should have at least had the decency to inform those attending that it had changed even if it wasn't their fault!

At least it looks like a gp track anyway not national

i got the same PDF as Skids, with the Arena cicuit diagram. Annoying they havent fessed up at this late stage and offered refunds/credits.

Actually, it wouldnt be so bad if were just the National layout as that way I would have a chance to ride it before DD round having never done it before, but doing the Bridge GP on the DD bike is just going to be pointless... might see if I can get my £125 back.

weird, I'm sure we booked at around the same time Kev and they sent me a PDF titled ITINERARY FOR SILVERSTONE INTERNATIONAL / GP Circuit with a circuit diagram showing a different circuit pic.

But still ****ed were not doing the new one.

May contact them about cancelling if it's not what I booked and spend ghe money on the session before race day

I too spoke to Gemma yesterday. Mainly because I still dont have an itinary. Now thats two emails and a call and no itinary. Only done one FE event before and that was well organised in adverse conitions.

I am very disapointed as I wanted the new track, if not then the DD track would have been good. Now down to third choice. Still a day out with the biike .
