2021 oct 10th ENGLISH CARS “Passion of Marble”

After a long period of uncertainty … it is again possible to resume organizing moments of leisure dedicated to our passion and in particular to the timeless English engines.
For 10 October ’21, our Club is asked to select 25 cars to be exhibited in Botticino in the province of Brescia.
In the country of the quarries and processing of one of the most prestigious marbles in the world, “the Botticino marble”, we will place our old Glories on display to be admired by the Brescia public. The participating collectors will find themselves from 9 to 9.30 at the Monastery of Sant’Eufemia della Fonte, now home to the prestigious 1000 Miglia Museum.
A coffee together and then immediately behind the wheel, escorted by our relay motorcycles and by the Local Police, for a festive parade between Botticino Sera and Botticino Mattina.
The Mayor will also be waiting for us near Villa Cazzago for a brief greeting to the crews. We will continue towards Villa Labus where, once the cars have been positioned, we will be able to enjoy a first welcome in the Villa; the crews will be offered breakfast under the characteristic portico. At the end of the appetizing break, the participants will be divided into groups for a guided tour of the adjacent Marble Museum. After a leap into the timeless world of stonemasons and sculpture, up to the most modern marble workers, we will be able to taste the dishes prepared by the chef, served for us in the enchanting garden set up for the occasion.
At 4 pm, after spending some time together and thanking the Pro Loco of Botticino for the exquisite hospitality, we can start heading home.
During the day we will take advantage of the parish priest’s kindness to bless all the cars.

2019 CIRCUITO DI AVEZZANO

The Avezzano Circuit in the Jaguar XK120 roadster

For years I have been listening to very positive comments on the Avezzano Circuit, so that when I received the invitation to participate by the organizer Felice Graziani, I confirmed immediately my presence with Jaguar XK120 roadster.

In fact, since it is a regularity race reserved for open-top cars, I took the opportunity to put one of my favorite car from my personal collection on the road, a 1952 English lady with a racing look with a swift 3.4 engine with 6 cylinders in line.

At the racce, held in the province of L’Aquila from Friday 28 to Sunday 30 June, about 100 vintage cars from all over Europe took part – indeed World, given the presence of American and Japanese crews. The level of the cars present was very high, and the atmosphere of familiarity immediately created by the participants was very pleasant.

In addition to regularity tests, we experienced moments of culture together, such as a visit to the birthplace of the writer Ignazio Silone in Pescina and a stop at the Antinum Archaeological Museum in Civita d’Antino. We also shared meetings with the local gastronomic tradition, such as the itinerary among cellars open for Vicoli di gusto (“tasty alleys”) in Roccavivi.

We then enjoyed the rough and majestic landscape of Abruzzo, with its mountain roads where driving becomes pure pleasure.

The highlight of the three-day event, however, was the circuit, which was tackled late Saturday evening: the streets of the center were cordoned off, we left Piazza Risorgimento in blocks to parade several times in front of a large and festive public.

Thanks to Felice Graziani and his staff for the perfect organization and to Lucia Di Lorenzo for the cordial hospitality in her house-museum, where she holds her father’s precious collection of vintage cars.
