I volunteered, but no tickets yet. I assume that they will turn up soon, in which case I'm in

I've not volunteered for anything in May/June/July as I'll be working in Melbourne (that's the one in Australia, not any of the ones in the UK). I was hoping to see some V8 Touring Cars while I was there, but they're in Tasmania, Darwin and Townsville the months I'll likely be there.

I hope you don't enjoy the V8 Supercars too much(I'm sooo jealous) Would love to get to see Bathurst one year with the V8 Supercars!

I applied via paper, but my details are now all in the online system, and I assume that would be the same for everyone. As above, I have nothing yet.

Well, there's good news and there's bad news...
Good News:
I'll be able to do this event now (and a couple of others)
Bad News:
The start to my job in Melbourne has been delayed, which means no money for another 4 weeks

Not got mine yet, but then I only sent the vol form off to Dave Cleavland last week.
This event (if not the actual date) will be my 1st anniversary at Oulton, as the sunday of the BTCC w/end was my first ever visit (marshalling or otherwise) to the track
Wandering around the pits in the early 7AM mist amongst the teams setting up was a fantastic experience - made even better later on when things were in full swing.
I remember getting baked in nigh on 30 deg sun all day, and grabbing the odd few mins in the shade from the armco between races towards the end of the afternoon..! (and my cars clutch cable snapping on the friday evening before it - DON'T want a repeat of that as it took a week to get a replacement..)

Don't think you'll get a repeat of this either!
