European car events

[Ian Comerford]

I’m always on the look out for new events (or ones I hadn’t heard of) and saw this which might be of interest.  Not sure I will get to this one as the St Gueno hillclimb might have my attention instead.

It’s closer than Angouleme……

[anglophone1]

Could  be cool Ian- about the same distance as Angouleme though.
I have my eye on St. Gueno next year - early June

I'm interested in St Gueno - and think I could probably sell at least one article from it.

Especially as it’s a round of the British Masters hillclimb champs…….in France

Me too

It may also be worth linking with European Porsche fora with a view to attending their events.  Chris T and I went to an Onassis 800 event in Germany in 2019

This is a new one to me http://www.speedhunters.com/2023/07/dusty-rides-heizr-club-takes-over-a-quarry/

Maybe we should create our own version of this in Belgium.

Rally Legend - San Marino

Rally legend always looks great, real passionate crowds and great rally cars in the San Marino hills, whats not to like?!

Agreed- and for some reason only just come onto my radar - it’s going on the list!

[Ian Comerford]

Or maybe The States http://www.speedhunters.com/2023/11/what-is-the-overcrest-rally/

or organise something similar over here?

[anglophone1]

I do a Bandit Run annually with 6-10 cars like that.

Wild Atlantic Way Ireland

NC500 Scotland

Pyrenees and  Mallorca

Grandes Alpes- Monte Carlo

A long way to go but if you’re in the area it sounds like it could be a great event

If you haven't already been  the Museum at Loheac is close and we'll worth a visit

I noticed a new map from Michelin which may be of interest to other Francophiles
