[Oldschool]

After a ever so poorly prepared and Ferrari biased Auto Italia day at Stanford Hall that cost £10 per person too much I wonder whether we should in the future not do our own action days.

By far the best stand was the Fiat Forum one.

AI is not very much appreciated at Brooklands nor at any other places.

Any comments or ideas?

there this bloke who runs a strip like pod but a lot cheaper its near gaydon, and you can camp. he was at ace a while ago, said he would join here and give more details. but i not seen him yet, it sounds the ideal place to hold the first ff organised show and action fiat day

[bulldog5046]

i think its a great idea, FiatForum only event

[dave]

nar we already have them this be ff run but other clubs for fiats invited

I am sure performancestilo forum would support this as well as many other groups like bo and club cento and cento rebles etc I already knew about this though as we talked about it on the phone the other day ..definatly time to get Auto Italian the big order of the boot

It's Auto Italia.

Are you talking about shakespeare county raceway btw dave?

[Helz]

How long ago did I suggest this and got shot down in flames

[sharkytaylor]

Sounds good to me .

If AROC can have their own National Day , why can't Fiat .

£20 per day for the track isn't too bad, £35 for a whole weekend, i'm sure if we were running an event we could get it cheaper..

i defiantly like the sound of this, i'm sick of the lack of respect we get at auto italia shows, my only problem is, would anyone want to come to a fiat only event, minus ferrari's and things, i would, but i think it's the ferrari's that draw family's from the general public to these types of events.

i so wish things happend closer to where i live

[dave]

the man who runs the above track said as it not so popular, you get to do a lot more runs than you do at pod

No, never even got that far, just everyone decided it was a rubbish idea because they all thought AI and their shows were wonderful. At the end of the day, I'm glad people are coming to their senses, think we could be onto something exciting here

i think it would defiantly be good for the forum... plus i don't think we'd have to put alot of money in to it... once we've worked out what other clubs would want to be there, we could start contacting sellers who might want stalls. ice cream trucks... may even make some money out of it... charge stand drivers a £5 general public £6 will encourage more people to be on stands which would lead to more people wanting to come.

first things first though, we need to get a location and a price... from that everything else can be worked out,
