SUMMARY:Auto Italia - Italian Car Day
DESCRIPTION:One of the biggest events of the year at Brooklands Museum celebrating the UK’s obsession with all things Italian. \nThis will be Auto Italia’s 29th Spring gathering – the UK’s first and finest all-Italian car event. Expect the site to be bursting with all types of Italian cars (and motorbikes). Test Hill demonstration will be taking place\, in addition to action on the Mercedes-Benz World circuit. In previous years there have been over 200 Ferraris alone! This year there will be just as much to see and do\, including many trade and club stands so come early\, bring your camera and plan the whole day at Brooklands! \nAmong the line-up of special cars being demonstrated at Brooklands for the first time is an Isotta Fraschini-engined monster known as ‘il drago ruggente’ (roaring dragon). Built on a 1924 Delage chassis\, ‘il drago’ is powered by a 27-litre Isotta Fraschini V12 engine from a WW2 Caproni bomber. It is owned by Glenn Billqvist\, who is bringing ‘il drago’ from Sweden especially for this event. Take a look at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLmqpTs4afg. Returning will be the Ferrari 212 F1 car from 1951 that made an appearance at Autumn Motorsport Day last year. \nThe timetable for the day is as follows:\n08.00 Gates open for ticket-holders\n08.30 Gates open to the public\n09.30 Museum displays open\n12.00-13.00 Mercedes-Benz World Track demo\n13.00 Silver Arrows demo at Mercedes-Benz World\n14.45-15.30 Test Hill\n17.00 Event ends \nAdvance tickets are available online here until Monday April 28th and from the Museum Shop in person until Friday May 2nd. \nPlease see the organiser website for details of ticket prices and parking

SUMMARY:Stratford Festival of Motoring
DESCRIPTION:Following the success of the first Stratford Festival of Motoring over the May Bank Holiday weekend in 2013 we have decided to make this an annual event. The 2014 Festival again takes place over the May Bank Holiday weekend on Sunday 4th and Monday 5th May. \nOrganised jointly by StratForward (the town’s Business Improvement District) and Shakespeare Country\, the event will see around 300 classic and special interest vehicles on display on the streets of Stratford-upon-Avon. \nThe two day Festival features two “runs” through stunning Warwickshire and Gloucestershire countryside. The difference for 2014 is that both runs operate on both days. This will mean half the cars leave town in one direction\, and half in another direction returning to town by different routes. \nAlscot Park Garage is the main Stratford Festival of Motoring event sponsor and TV Presenter and Journalist Quentin Willson is Patron. \nEntry Fee for the 2 day Festival is £25 per car and £10 per motorcycle\, which will include a route book covering both runs\, rally plate and parking on the streets in town for both days. \nPlease visit the organiser website for further details

SUMMARY:Speed Into Spring - Shelsley Walsh hill climb
DESCRIPTION:Speed Into Spring (formerly known as May Midlander) is the first hill climb racing meeting at Shelsley Walsh has attracted a full entry of some of the very best hill climb cars and drivers from across the country.\nHill climb cars and drivers at Shelsley Walsh\nSeveral new machines and first time hill climb drivers will be making an appearance at this Speed into Spring event in a wide variety of sports\, classic\, saloon and racing cars\, alongside entrants in the highly competitive Midland Hill Climb Championship. \nReigning Midland champion Rob Stevens will be defending his title in his Force SR4 Sports Libre car\, together with championship runner-up Mike Turpin in his supercharged Vauxhall VX220. \nThe 1100cc hill climb racing car class sees no fewer than 21 entries with MAC member Simon Fidoe campaigning the very latest F1-inspired and fully aerodynamic Empire Wraith single-seater which will be seen at Shelsley Walsh in competition for the first time. \nFifteen Porsche cars will be competing in their own invited class as part of the Porsche Club of Great Britain Championship and 25 cars of all Lotus variants will be taking part in the Paul Matty Sports Cars Lotus Championship. \nOther invited classes include the Cheltenham Porsche Specialists\, ‘B’ Licence Road Going Championship and a special class for AC Cars. \nJohn Harrison and his 1958 Dodge Coronet\nOne driver set to entertain the crowds at Shelsley Walsh is John Harrison from Wareham\, Dorset\, with his 1958 Dodge Coronet sedan\, which has a 5.3litre V8 engine\, only two forward automatic gears and manages 14 miles per gallon on a good run! \nJohn Harrison in his 1958 Dodge Coronet \nJohn commented: “The challenge of hill climbing such a totally unsuitable but exciting car is what appeals to me and I am really looking forward to driving for five hours up to Shelsley Walsh and then competing at this iconic venue. \n“The car is completely unrestored and retains its original paint\, interior and drive train\, with no power steering or assisted brakes and is running on authentic crossply whitewall tyres to provide a true 1950s driving experience. \n“It will reach 60 mph in first so I just keep it in that gear and hang on for dear life as it wallows along and smokes its tyres around the corners.”\nSaturday is Practice Day giving all competitors the chance to refresh their memories of the hill with the Sunday being the Event Day.\n \nHill climb racing points and rules\nThere are nine points for winning each class down to one point dependent on the number of entries in the class. For the most competitive drivers there is a bonus point for reducing their class record which always heightens their commitment. \nThe run-offs take place at the end of morning class runs on Sunday and at the end of the day’s competition. Saturday\, practice day\, is when all competitors are offered two practice runs. \nEvent details and tickets\nEach day starts at about 9.15 am with the event finishing around 5.30pm dependent on the conduct of the event. \nTickets for this Shelsley Walsh hill climb racing event can be bought here.  Please visit the organisers website for more information.
