I may well be up for this one. Anyone travelling down from East Anglia?

Could be, Trev. An East Anglian convoy could be good (I'm Colchester-ish). Attendance will be weather dependent - schlepping round Brooklands in the rain won't be fun!

So looking forward to this now! :) Just need to find a meet point somewhere around Swindon, as one person is coming down from Gloucester that way, anyone got any ideas??

It'll be Membury Services Nick, between junctions 15 and 14.

I'm in Newbury so can meet at Reading services or Chievely and head down in convoy. Will there be a forum stand or are we just parking in the car parks?

Just be in the car parks, i presume the masser's will be separate from the Alfa's :) I will be taking the sportsalfa banner we have :)

Italian cars should enter the Museum site via the Campbell Gate off Brooklands Road (with a fast access lane for ticket holders). Parking for visitors in non-Italian cars will be in The Heights off Wellington Way - please follow event signage.


So how does it work? Take the Maser and get different access and show the car? Would be great to get a SM banner and a few of us park under that....

Well i went for the first time last year, all non Italian cars had half the main carpark, then all Alfa's/ fiats etc had the other half closest to the museum, Ferrari's etc all had there own parking area around the museum grounds, there were that many cars last year that the banked track was all parking aswell, awesome sight seeing all those Italian cars on the old banked curve :) I may be being presumptuous in saying the massers will have there own area mind, but the organisers seemed to have it pretty organised into areas, apart from the banked cicuit, one of the reasons i want to be there early ;)

Open to the public from 10, you can arrive any time but best before then if you have a car for the display as it gets crowded and you may not get a spot with others of the same marque, though some (eg Alfas) have a pretty big allocation. I think they man the gates from about 8.30 ish, so aiming for 9-9.30 would be good. Hope it's warmer than last year!
