Well I was there all day Sunday and couldn't find you! I looked everywhere, I found the Stratos Enthusiasts club, Alfa owners club, the Italian car club but no LMC!  Angry My son was working for one of the race teams and during a break rode round the whole place on the pit bike looking and said he found about three Lancia's with a LMC flag tucked out of the way so not worth going over, what's going on? this is a real classic car weekend and should be full of Aurelia's, Appia's, Flavia's, Fulvia's and so on, so why when club Lanciasport put on a show, they have more cars and better presence? is it that they show up at more popular events or they are more enthusiastic about their cars? to me this was by far the most popular event i've been to this year but with the least Lancia's, sad but very true  Embarrassed

I'd have preferred to be on the grass too but we were next to Aston Martin and right next to the old pits so (and I think others would agree) that there was actually a lot of footfall past the cars (if you visited the national pits then it was on the way out) so on balance it wasn't so bad a place as might be thought.
That said it was quite hard to find when we turned up in the morning!
But, I'd also say that the number of e-types must have caused everything to shift around - so it may be only this year that it'd be like this. The other consideration (I suppose) is that the new track layout means that there is much more grassy area near the bridge available ... but the steam engines also removed other space ....

If your son rode around at Sunday lunchtime then there would've been 4 Lancias out on track ! Smiley

PS. Anniversarys for 2012 ?

I don't understand either! The weather was simply fabulous on Sunday, surely the day most folks would choose to go.
It isn't just Motorsport. Car and Bike Clubs everywhere. Air displays. Live music. Fun fair. Automobilia. The list goes on.

Dave. All shots of the LC2s gratefully received. My compact just couldn't cope!

Ciao!

As it happens I couldn't make it this year, but I would have been there if I could have, although I've attended the previous two, with last years 15 minutes of track time on the sunday being very memorable, but I would have thought the cost was a turn off for some, and not everyone's 'cup of tea' for another.

A late contribution of Lancia photos from this event, along with a couple of "others" that caught my attention!
