Updating this thread as of 05.11.2017:
Don't forget to request your stand passes when ordering. These will be sent out separately when pod send them to us.
Pricing as follows:-
Club members £5 Sunday only and £10 for the full weekend.
Non members £12.20 Sunday and £18.60 for the full weekend. These prices are discounted until the end of January.
Santa Pod also charge an extra £4 on their direct ticket (booking fee and p&p) so you get a better discount still with the club for the non members tickets.
From 1st February 2018 to 1st June 2018 tickets will be as follows:-
Members £10 Sunday and £16 weekend. Non members £15 for the Sunday and £23 for the Weekend.
From 2nd June till 12th June tickets will be approx £4 more than the above as Santa Pod increase prices again.
So get tickets before end of January to get the best discount!! Would be a great Xmas gift!!
Rules : Last year was extremely popular and some members unfortunately missed out so:-
1 ticket per member (Sunday)
1 ticket per member (Weekend)
Up to 3 non member tickets with any order.
Also 1 spouse ticket per member by request only. Please ask on the website so permissions can be set when your ordering.

It was packed this year! 40 + 5 gt's and a well organised stand. The club shop was also out for your essential head gaskets to get back home!:D
Hope next year is just as successful. :agree:

If anyone has any others, get them put into the above folder!:)

Re: ND 2018 Frog Pod Retro Weekend Sat/Sun 16/17 June 2018
Regarding Friday night camping, there are the Triumphs in the very next stand. In the first photo in that folder:
https://www.rtoc.org/files/Events/RTO...618_094905.jpg
Maybe somehow joining in with their camping might work?
Paying them for a few RTOC people and so camping as part of the Triumph group.

Re: ND 2018 Frog Pod Retro Weekend Sat/Sun 16/17 June 2018
Might be worth a shot that Ian! That is, they are there again next year on the Friday.:agree:

Re: ND 2018 Frog Pod Retro Weekend Sat/Sun 16/17 June 2018
I phoned Pod just now and they told me Triumphfest are NOT camping on the Friday.
I found the Triumph SSC FB page and left a message asking if they are or not. https://www.facebook.com/pg/The-Triu...=page_internal
They have a website but nothing on there about 2018. http://www.tssc.org.uk/tssc/events.asp
Perhaps one of you chaps can find out more with TSSC as to if they did camp this year, 2017, and plan to be doing, or not doing, in 2018.
-
Re: ND 2018 Frog Pod Retro Weekend Sat/Sun 16/17 June 2018
Actually, I just found the TSCC email address and sent them this:
Hi,
Regarding the Triumphfest at the Retro show 2018, are you having camping at Santa Pod on the Friday night as well as the Saturday night?
Did your club camp at Santa Pod on the Friday night as well as the Saturday night at Retro show this year, 2017?
I ask on behalf of the Renault Turbo Owners Club, who were the next stand to your at this years 2017 Retro Show. I've bought our 2018 Retro show weekend tickets from Santa Pod and some of the RTOC members want to camp on Friday as well as Saturday. Pod tell me they there is no Friday camping these days but some RTOC people on Facebook think the TSSC did camp this year and will be camping next year.
If that is the case and TSCC have a special arrangement with pod for Friday camping, maybe RTOC could buy some tickets from TSSC, those members joining TSSC as members if required, so as to camp on the Friday.
Regards,
Ian
RTOC

Re: ND 2018 Frog Pod Retro Weekend Sat/Sun 16/17 June 2018
Received this response to my Facebook message.
It doesn't seem to specifically address my retro show question. Just that they normally have a meeting somewhere and normally camp there.
Hi Ian, we normally do but we haven't announced exactly where we are going this year as we are waiting for all of the venues to announce the confirmed dates. We have to ensure it doesn't clash with Le Mans Classic from our resources perspective ... thanks for your enquiry we will let you know.

Re: ND 2018 Frog Pod Retro Weekend Sat/Sun 16/17 June 2018
This is positive news. Many thanks Ian for making the enquiries.:)
I doubt they will get back to us, but it was good of them to reply. :agree:

I've the Spouse tickets showing in stock.
There's the ticket to get into Santa Pod all weekend and the parking pass to get into the club parking are on the Sunday. On Saturday you would park in the camping area with RTOC which was brightly signed.
-
Re: ND 2018 Frog Pod Retro Weekend Sat/Sun 16/17 June 2018
All the purchased tickets are now in the post.
I have 7 weekends left, for members, non-members, spouses.
Response so far has been excellent with 23 sales.
About 16 car passes so far.
-
Re: ND 2018 Frog Pod Retro Weekend Sat/Sun 16/17 June 2018
Doh. I've forgot to add my stand pass😢
-
Re: ND 2018 Frog Pod Retro Weekend Sat/Sun 16/17 June 2018
Already assigned one to you :)
The difference is due to souses, non-members, etc., not bring a car. Ie, two people sharing a car.
-
Re: ND 2018 Frog Pod Retro Weekend Sat/Sun 16/17 June 2018
Tickets arrived today. :agree:
Thanks Ian

Re: ND 2018 Frog Pod Retro Weekend Sat/Sun 16/17 June 2018
That's all 30 weekend tickets sold. :agree:
19 passes, or so, = cars on stand so far.
I've added a few more tickets into the shop but I don't have any to post out. What I'll do is see if any further tickets sell before Pod put up their price, then buy those at the discount rate and post them out then. After that, we'll have to price them higher.
