With the good weather recently (hopefully an insight to our summer) its time to put some dates in your diary
Silverstone Classic - 25th-27th July 2014
Don't let the name fool you, while the cars on the track have been around before the 1 series was even in the minds of BMW's designers. The cars off the track are both old and new.
The car club is planning to have its biggest stand yet, and the club discount makes the event even sweeter . Im hoping we can get a good turnout at this event, with the car club planning to make a big impact on the event.
