Anyone out there planning on going to the Auto Italia event at Brooklands? It's on Sat the 5th of May. Went a couple of years ago and it was a good do with a big showing of coops. Best thing about the Auto Italia events is they park you all together. Would look bad if it was coopless! If anyone's interested I'll get in touch with Auto Italia and make sure they're save a place for us (Apologies if someone has already raised this?)

All the details for sign up are on http://www.auto-italia.co.uk/I only signed up last week so there's probably some places left. Maybe I'll just cruise round at 30mph!

I've recieved my track confirmation from Auto Italia. Looks like a few leisurely laps similar to tose we did at Rockingham a couple of years back Thank you for your interest in the Auto Italia Spring Italian Car Day. This letter is to confirm your track drive booking for Saturday May 5th at Brooklands. Please bring this letter with you as your proof of payment. Please read the following instructions carefully and contact us if you have any enquiries. Timetable: Safety Briefing 11.30 Track cars ready 12.00 Track open 12.30 Track Closed 13.30 All drivers and passengers must report to the Auto Italia HQ in the Brooklands Museum Paddock for signing-on at any time before 11.30. A mandatory safety briefing will be held at 11.30. Drivers and passengers will then be required to sign an indemnity form and be issued with security wristbands. Helmets are not essential. Seat belts must be worn. One passenger per car may be carried. Children may be carried provided they are securely seated and wear approved seat belts. Sportscars must have their roofs raised. All cars are to assemble at the gate to Mercedes-Benz World by 12.00. Late arrivals will not be permitted to enter the circuit. This is not a competitive event. Each track session will be run in groups of ten cars behind a pace car driven by Mercedes-Benz World track staff for three laps. Any cars seen to be ‘holding back’ to create space for a high speed burst will immediately bring the session to a close. Any drivers considered to be driving inappropriately will be removed from the circuit.
