Emailed the ACO over the weekend about various issues, and amongst other things, this was their response: ".......You will be able to reserve for the 24 hours 2008, starting on the Test day on the 3rd of June 2007. ....." Del

Well, as I'm planning an 08 assault, then I may just try ringing them on the test day.

As previously stated, I am happy to deliver a mass CA booking on the morning of June 3rd for the 2008 race. I suggest you download the '07 form, change the year, and post it to me. Anybody who is interested should PM me and I'll give you my address to send the forms to. This offer is limited to those with 100 posts or more (this is just for security as I don't want my address to be public knowledge). Does that sound fair?

Termie. You're a star. I'll try to program our dvd recorder so that it gets the cheltenham festival for you too. I won't be around to supervise it, so I'll leave instructions with Mrs Liv not to let my daughter watch sooty, pingu etc. while the prog is on the TV.

In my experience they may be slightly wrong - I have usually requested next year's tickets when I collect this year's, on the Friday of test weekend. As it looks like I won't be able to do Test w/e this year I may well join the Termieclub.

Wow, I didn't expect quite such a scramble when I made the post!!
I was also told this last year - that they wouldn't accept bookings until after test w/e. But I know for a fact that some people booked long before this. For the past few years, I have emailed them my order, whereas some people fax theirs. I have a feeling that if you email them, they have an easy way of responding (refusing) the order if it is too early - if the order is faxed, they can't easily respond.
Also bear in mind that Termie has offered to go and have a chat with the ACO people after the current activity has eased off a bit - to try to get some answers before we start ordering.

I'm going to try for Friday morning (1st) and see what happens. Then will keep trying each morning until they relieve me of them!!! Meanwhile, I have one more general entrance ticket to book and will do that after Sebring. Then I'll get a face-to-face answer. Faxing before June 1st may work as suggested above, dunno.

Just out of interest guys, what is the best way of securing tickets nice and early for 2008? - do you all go through the ACO? It looks as if i'll probably go about organising next years trip and getting a few guys involved who haven't been before, and would obviously want it sorted ASAP! (after this years of course )
