Crickey.... I didnt realise anyone was chatting about this here! Delighted to know you are though! Thank you Rache for starting the thread. My membership lapsed a couple of months back, so couldnt see events etc.. shamefull! :tongueout:
I'm one of the organisers, so I'll try and keep up with answering your questions. All the info you should need 'ought to be on the event site, with most of the circuit info like helmets, car requirements etc to be found by clicking on the 'Terms' tab at the top of the page. But if there's something we've missed please just ask.
Also, another good way of keeping up to speed with all event news is on our dedicated Face Book page. Origine RS Show
TICKETS:
The ticket options to Origine RS are many, so to get the most out of your day at Goodwood Race Circuit, please take a minute or two to read though the following purchasing aid we've got together for you.
There are two sections -
• General Admission
&
• Track Time
Everyone coming to the show needs a General Admission Ticket. Drivers (for the show) + Passengers (for the show).
Everyone that wants to go on track also needs a Track Time Pass. Drivers (on track), Additional Drivers (on track) + Passengers (on track).
To meet Goodwoods insurance requirements everyone going on track must have attended a briefing (Drivers & Additional Drivers) and/or signed a disclaimer (Track Passenger). You will then receive an appropriate wristband.
This means you cannot just turn up as a passenger to the show and jump in any car going round the circuit unless you have purchased a Track Pass to do this.
If you buy a Full Day or Half Day of Track Time you get a free general admission ticket for the driver. These are the most expensive options so you get the general admission thrown in to make it better value. In addition, no one paying for a track day would normally expect to pay entry as well. Those who only want a track taster (one or two sessions) will still need to pay general admission as well. This is normal for most events of this type.
Show cars are any cars eligible for infield parking. That's pretty much anything interesting from Alpine/Renaultsport/Renault apart from your standard laguna estate, 1.2 Clio, megane scenic etc. I'm guessing most of you guys will be bringing a show car.
Non-show cars are for general parking in the car park and then you walk over to the show.
All the options are there to give you the flexibility to do exactly what you want to. Every option is possible. For example:
EXAMPLE 1
Mark brings his Clio V6 to show. John is his passenger.
They need to purchase (from General Admission):
1 x Show car + Driver @ £20
1 x Passenger @ £10
They do not need to purchase any Track Time passes.
EXAMPLE 2
Simon brings his Alpine GTA to go on track all day. Mike is his passenger.
They need to purchase:
1 x Full Day @ £185 (from Track Time) which includes the Drivers Entry and Track Pass for Simon
1 x Passenger Entry @ £10 (from General Admission) @ for Mike
If Mike just wants to look around the show he needs nothing else.
If Mike wants to drive Simons car on track he must buy an Additional Driver Pass @ £25 (from Track Time) and attend a briefing.
If Mike wants to go round the track as a passenger in Simons car he must buy a Passenger Track Entry Pass @ £10 (from Track Time) and sign a disclaimer.
NOTES
Once you have paid for an Additional Driver Pass you can drive any car or be a passenger in any car on track all day assuming someone will let you. You don't need a Passenger Track Pass as well.
Once you have paid for a Passenger Track Pass you can be a passenger in any car on track all day assuming someone will let you.
EXAMPLE 3
Going back to Example 1.
Mark is happy to stay polishing his car all day and chatting to friends but John fancies going round the track with Simon as a passenger.
John buys a Track Passenger Pass @ £10 (from Track Time) completes the paperwork and is then allowed on track.
Every permutation is possible. Just purchase what you need. If people decide they might want to be a 'Track Passenger' or an 'Additional Driver' at the last minute on the day we should have the flexibility to cope with that but please plan ahead if at all possible.
Thanks, from the Origine RS team.
