Group C Jaguars are always popular attractions. |
To encourage whole families to turn up
and enjoy the cream of world-class historic motorsport, advance
tickets to the Donington Historic Festival, 5th and 6th
May 2012, are being held at the same affordable prices as last year,
while family members under 16 are admitted free. And to make it even
easier for car club members to turn out in force – without breaking
the bank – there’s a two-for-one advance ticket deal for
registered clubs.
Over 20 car clubs have already signed
up for this special offer, from the Bentley Drivers Club, Club Lotus,
Ferrari Owners’ Club and Jaguar Drivers’ Club, to the Morgan
Sports Car Club, Porsche Club GB, Rolls-Royce Enthusiasts’ Club and
the TR Register. This gives their members the two-for-one ticket deal
– plus a free car pass to Donington’s spectacular infield
parking, where they’ll form a great display to be enjoyed by all
spectators. The full list of registered clubs can be found at
www.doningtonhistoric.com
and, if yours isn’t among them, get in touch with your club
officials!
“Our aim is two-fold,” said Duncan
Wiltshire of Historic Promotions Ltd, organiser of the Donington
Historic Festival. “First and foremost, we want to provide the very
best racing, with truly thrilling on-track action featuring historic
cars from the most evocative eras of the sport. Secondly, we want to
do this at a price which club members and motorsport fans can readily
afford – and all this at arguably the UK’s best spectator
circuit.”
Judging by the
inaugural Donington Historic Festival in 2011, which confirmed that
one of Britain’s greatest racing circuits was back in business, the
on-track action is sure to be fast, competitive and exciting –
from the ‘Mad Jack’ for pre-War sportscars,
through the glorious sportscars and sports-racers of the 1950s and
1960s, to the E-type Challenge, Historic F2, Touring Cars (both
pre-66, and 1966-85), not to mention the always dramatic Group C
sportscars. To whet your appetite for the 2012 Festival, take a peek
at the 2011 video gallery at www.doningtonhistoric.com/2011-videos/
– where you’ll find a mix of racing action, plus club gatherings
and on-track parades.
Add to this the
special packages for car clubs, a superb location – and the fact
that each entry ticket gives two-for-one entry to the stunning
on-site Donington Grand Prix Collection during the Festival
weekend and for the following two months – and
the Donington Historic Festival promises to be a highlight of 2012.
