Are we being offered any track time?

Do we sign up before hand for the hill demo?

I am discussing it with Phil Ward, it looks like there may well be only 2 or 3 places on the track.

If that is the case they will go to people who have never been on the MB World track previously and priority will go to club members.

Hill demo does need to be signed up for in advance, I don't yet know how many places. There should be more places available than for the track.

When I have firm information I will put it up on this thread.

Thanks Pete, I did the track 2 years ago so happy to let others go ahead. Look forward to seeing the hill demo info, didn't get a chance to do that.

Will be there with m'boy (and possibly daughter) but maybe in his Alfa GT - we went in his last year so maybe this year we'll take the coop (and therefore do it in style

would have liked to come along but Im back to work on 18th April........hope the weather is kind and you all have a great time. Maybe next year I'll be off and maybe next year I'll be lucky enough to own a coupe.

I have now heard from Phil Ward.

There will be space for 3 Coupes on the track demo.

If you have never been on the MB World track before and would like to go please put your name on this thread along with the type of coupe you have and its colour.

Priority will go to paid up club members.

Please note that you will need to produce your driving licence as you register on the day.

I need to give AutoItalia names early next week, so please post your details by Tuesday morning.

Thanks.

Hi again if no problem then I would love to do it.
20vt plus Moongrey 👍
Steve Turner

Great news that Phil is offering us track time Pete? I've done it before so happy to let others take the stand.

Did Phil mention anything about the hill demo? I recall that needed to be signed up for in the past.

Yes there will be Test Hill time Chris, I forgot to ask him how many places but there will be more than for the track.

I think we will need to sign up for that, so I'll check with him on Tuesday.

If anyone wants the Test Hill then please post your details on this thread.

Not so much pressure for giving the Test Hill participant list, Hopefully I will be able to say how many places are available shortly.

I have heard back from Phil.

The track demo participants are confirmed. Don't forget you will need to sign in from around 9 am and attend a drivers briefing later in the morning.

There will be 4 or 5 places available for us on the Test Hill. We do need to pre register, so if you are interested please add your name to the list before Sunday evening 3rd April.

The day before, Friday 29th April, AutoItalia is running a separate trackday event at nearby Chobham.

This is where AutoItalia do a lot of their photoshoots and a number of us have been round it. He is keeping a number of places open for coupe drivers.

If you would like to take part please contact him directly.

AUTO ITALIA DRIVING EXPERIENCE
Friday April 29th

Auto Italia magazine’s 2016 Brooklands Italian Car Day will be held on Saturday April 30th. To complement the event this year a driving experience for owners of selected Italian cars has been established at a nearby private test facility (and Auto Italia’s photo location) on Friday April 29th. With the events being held over consecutive days the intention is to offer Italian car owners the opportunity to take in two neighbouring venues.

This is not a conventional track day that places stress on both cars and drivers but an opportunity for owners to demonstrate their skills. The 2-mile circuit includes fast straights, banked corners and a hill in the ‘forest’ section. The demanding nature of the course requires the use of pace cars to control the groups of cars. Numbers will be limited so drivers will have plenty of laps.

Because the venue is not open to the public attendance needs to be pre-booked. In the first instance Italian car owners should apply to the organisers with registration details of the car they wish to enter. Subject to entry acceptance the cost will be £100 per car and £25 for a nominated additional driver. Closing date for all applications is April 15th. Further details will be published in Auto Italia. For entries contact mail@philwardevents.com

Just the 2 of us for the Test Hill then.

I will let them know.

If there's time can I add John and Gina's 20v n/a for the test hill please Pete?

OK, Joe, I have just emailed Phil, but I'll try and get him to add them if you let me have the details.

I'll be in their vehicle as they're letting me borrow it for Brooklands, so my details.

OK, thanks Joe.

I've being trying to get to the brooklands meet for years, but due to various reasons (mainly work commitments) I could never quite make it, anyway this year.....tickets are bought, hotel room paid for and the coupe is back on the road.

Much looking forwards to this, and putting some of the southern faces to their names.

I would love a blast on the test hill (Porto 20vt) if there are any available spaces on the day?

Anyway, roll on end of the month

Good to see you making it down here Angelo.

The Test Hill may be difficult as I have already been back with one extra car after giving them a "final" list.

I will try though.

Thanks a lot Pete, I appreciate that, but don't worry if it's too late mate.

Just about to buy my ticket but I have a question ...is there club group parking and if so ?

Yes, there will be. We will have an area reserved for all Fiat Coupes.

....... and hot coffee, tea and milk?

great!!

If you bend it, you have to mend it, Joe...

Just booked tickets for me and Anita. I'll have the tea and coffee and hot water and the tent, and Joe has will bring the flag (borrowed for the Bristol event the week prior).

Will be there non italian car

I am a maybe for this. Maybe need to be in the UK to complete on my new house on the 29th ..... Just awaiting confirmation of a few things....
