Red Bull Air Race anyone? Longleat, UK

[Marcos]

I was thinking of going but the ticket admission hand out is strange

Was also thinking since theres only me and my brother interested we could take another 3 in our car if we were to get hold of tickets, or if anyone else already has tickets and 2 spare seats

Their website: http://www.redbullairrace.com/ says you are allowed to bring as many people as your car can carry, basically the ticket is per car, not person

[TiG]

you register how many people you are bringing, as there is an attendance limit too, so be careful if you don't say 5 on your car that you could end up being turned away.

Be warned tho its very popular, over 4 times the number of applications to number of tickets available already!.

And i really want to go and didn't get a ticket in last weeks draw...

I got all my family to apply aswell

I assume a lot of people are doing this so that is the reason there is a 4:1 ratio on tickets/applicants

I don't actually know much about the event though, i just know I like planes

[da_ging]

have applied aswell but no joy in the first draw , still 2 left tho i think so could be lucky yet

[Tumble]

that will be a FANTASTIC event... I will turn bright green now if that's ok cos I know I can't go

Got myself and a couple of mates all signed up. It's going to be an awesome FREE event and I can't wait!

I'm going to the to it at the Rock of Cashel this weekend, should be fun .

They were doing a draw for them here too although I think the majority of people who wanted tickets got them. Apparently they gave out around 60,000 tickets which seems like quite a lot

[shiato storm]

its easier to place 60000 people along a course than it is in one stadium i think...more spread out over an area. i guess they just end up milling about and bumping into eachother cause they're looking up all the time

[turkster]

Yeah I guess that must be it because looking at the tv coverage of the other Red bull air races there never looks like a huge density of crowds.

[5lab]

has anyone heard back?

i've had a response saying i've not won, but my mate got nothing - does that mean he's thru

[shiato storm]

doooooh! not successful. arg!

[Dougal]

Sameas.

To get in the top 100 for the game you need at least 22111

[Skii]

Nope

waste of ruddy time tbh.
