    Re: Brooklands - Italian Car Day Sat 29th April

    Robin and anyone interested - it was a great day - the weather was good and wall-to-wall beautiful Italian cars (although probably too many Ferraris) and not many Strats. I counted 5 of us and we were scattered throughout the site. I arrived before 10.00 and was shown to the overflow parking on the old Brooklands embankment . I caught up with Ian Gear (our oversease contingent from I of Wight), Richard and partner (Revs) and Paul (GTM Paul), and John Rutter (Rut the Nut). There was one other who I didnt get a chance to speak to - not sure who it was , sorry.

    It was the first time I'd been to this event and I enjoyed it - a pleasant change from the classy crowd you get at Goodwood who - to quote a petrol-head neighbour - are a bit "up themselves" - it was more fun and casual !

ID:	21064 I particularly liked the use of the term "general " Ferrari parking - this was just for the bog standard Ferraris.

    The missing name is Vince Abbott. Alitalia no 10 - probably the nicest car out there!

    Looks like a superb day out, shame it's a bit too far for a day trip for the North West....

    Yep, it's a fair old trek. But then, we've got the Yorkshire Run and the Northern Drive-Out weekends up here.....might we see you on one of those, if only to say Hello?

    Not ruling anything out Norman! I've got the Beta rebuild on the go at the moment, the Malvern and Newark shows and a new motor to drop into the Stratos this season..... Good job I'm retired now!

    I didn't take this pic it was on another Facebook site, first time to Italian day and was impressed, the level of interest was better than most kitcar shows

    That's odd, I just pasted in the images directly. Guess the forum s/w would rather have links
