AutoItalia Brooklands 4th May 2019

AutoItalia Brooklands 4th May 2019 - 09/03/2019 12:54

As you probably know, events at Brooklands have not been without their problems the past couple of years.

Phil Ward (AutoItalia owner) is well aware of them and has been keeping the club up to date with progress.

Yesterday I had an email from him saying what will happen to resolve the issue of us not being placed together as a group.

This year we have 30 spaces allocated to us halfway up the finishing straight between the Lamborghinis and classic Fiat 500s.

To ensure that Brooklands Marshals park us in the correct place there will be a downloadable A4 PDF parking pass to display on the dashboard or windscreen.

He will be sending me a link which I will make available to forum members when I have it.

It does mean however that once the 30 spaces are filled any other coupes will have to park in the overflow parking on the embankment, so get there early.
It's a good idea to do so anyway as the local roads can clog up badly even before reaching the Campbell gate entrance to Brooklands.

Here's the link to the event.

Please add your names to the list if you are going.

I now have an email from Phil Ward with a pdf of the Fiat Coupe Display label.

You need to print this out and put it on your dash. The marshals will then make sure we are all located in the right area.

A jpeg version is attached.

Mark_D sounds good to me, I'm in Southsea and will be travelling in my wife's Abarth.

Was thinking of leaving at 7:45am. We could meet at the Shell in Farlington, opposite the Fiat dealership at 8am? Then we could pick up Chris on the way up the A3?

Yes, good luck from me too. Would be great if you could add to the list, but sounds like you’ve got a bit of a task ahead thumb

P.s, I’ve noticed a black Coop on the Havant Road. I’ve had a few goes at trying to spot his car, but haven’t seen it recently. I was going to try and locate him and point him in the direction of the club & tell him about Saturday.

Also a sprint blue coop seen near my girlfriends son’s place in Cowplain, which I’ll try to do the same.

Re: AutoItalia Brooklands 4th May 2019 - 30/04/2019 20:43

To all those who are attending the show on the club stand you will need to print this off so you are directed to the correct place!

Much better organisation the stand filled out, we must have had at least 25 Coupe today, plus some others scattered around the site.

I tried to meet as many as possible and had a great time!

Will upload photos soon!

Hi Gunzi. Just about made it to my first Coupe meet but owing to morning commitments only arrived at around 3pm. It had just started raining and most of the other Coupes were leaving as I came in! 2 or 3 left. Thanks for the chat Dave G.
