I always try to spend a few extra days over there before and after, midweek ferries are normally cheaper and less busy too wink

This year some of the guys were talking about visiting the Ring too, either before or after Spa cool

Excellent Taffy - it's a great weekend. I guarantee you will be grinning from ear to ear driving round one of the best tracks on the F1 circuit.

The grande parade is good fun without the need to do all the hardcore preparation.

Pace car? What pace car.

We must all do our part for the planet.
I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.

Yes really looking forward to this, will be a truly excellent event if we get a good crowd together.

Big convoy down, 50+ coupes, loads of beer, laughs, bit of magic from our foreign friends, and of course, spanking the crap out of the car around the best circuit in the world!

(magooagain - no overtaking pace cars!)

i've been on a Ferrari day before at Thruxton which was pretty awesome, but not on my own, in my own car etc.

i think i would be pretty nervous in any car to be fair, racing drivers make it look sooo easy!

love to drive eau-rouge though that would be amazing!

is this going to be club members only?

i really should join dunno why i havent

It is for all Fiat coupe owners, but it would be nice if you did join the club anyway.

You don't have to hammer the car round the circuit, just join in one of the Grande Parade sessions with a mix of all types of Italian cars.

Some of the Coupé owners do participate in the more enthusiastic sessions and really do go for it. There are also people who just want the thrill of driving on one of the best racing circuits in the world and take a far more gentle approach.

There's no queue at least there wasn't this year. Just a case of looking for an empty victim seat before i go out out in the sessions. I was out by myself for a good bit this year. So anyone is welcome if they are up for a fun ride.

count me in then!

be fascinating to actually see what any coupe is like driven in anger on a track (even my 20v)

so much different to the road

sparco, what is 'the red car'? another coupe? sorry forgive my ignorance!!

but i'll fill the seat either way... maybe in more ways than one!
