Same for me. If it’s not raining we’ll head over. Where will we be meeting to convoy in?

Thinking about it. It's an early start but the company and racing are fun. That's unless they park me off with the red trousers again.

I ran both my Ghibli (50k miles in 3 years) and Levante as daily cars. The tyre and fuel bills did bite a little but it made every journey a pleasure and put a smile on my face. There was nothing better than finishing in the office and knowing that I had an hour of Maserati fun on the way home...

I'm thinking of doing this if the weather improves at all. I've never been to Burghley House so it does seem like a good excuse for a visit.

On balance I'm leaning towards Sports Cars In The Park.

Likewise. Not sure which yet which is why I thought I'd post here. SCITP is closer, but I've not been to Carlton Towers.

Auto Italia have a new event at Carlton Towers on the 24th September. Ticket details are here. Not sure about this one myself, it's the same day as the Autumn SCITP at Newby Hall, costs more, and from the terms and conditions you can't take any food/drink on site. It's different venue so might...

You'd be hard pressed to get one without lots of carbon specced on it. As was discussed in an earlier thread, right or wrong, this is the way that Ferrari operate their order book. I'd love an 812 as well, a real weapon of a car, but I'm so far away from being able to buy one, never mind run...

I've just seen a nice manual 456 GT will be auctioned at Silverstone. Hopefully it won't be raining and I won't be trying to shelter from the rain in the auction...

This is true. I'm working my way toward it. Still not quite brave enough

Didn't manage to get there until later on. Someone had a nice combine harvester fire on the back of a lorry at Scotch Corner that messed things up a little. Some interesting cars there. Perhaps the parking staff need to be taught to recognise Lancia as an Italian brand though, as both Integrale...

This is on Sunday. Advance tickets are still available at £10 for car and driver and £5 for each passenger. It is possible to pay on the gate on the day but this is cash only. 1. MrMickS 2. Doohickey 3. AlpineAlex I'll be travelling from near Barnard Castle/Bishop Auckland if anyone wants to...

I fancy this one but will probably make it a last minute decision based on what the weather looks like.
