Now an established part of the season's calendar, the Brooklands Autumn MotorSport Festival takes place on Sunday 14th October. It is one of the last big outdoor events of the 2018 season, and there's going to be lots to make it a memorable finale.

For those who have not been to Brooklands for a while, you will be amazed at the transformation of the site, which is now restored back to how it was in its heyday in the 1930s, with the long start/finish straight that leads up to the banking, and a lot of work has been done on the buildings and many of the planes. There will be lots of cars to see, too. Static displays of a very varied selection of competition cars from all ages will encompass Formula 1, F5000, CanAm, GTs, Touring cars, Group B rally cars and historic cars like the record breaking 1933 Napier Railton – holder of the outright lap record at Brooklands - will all be on show and the site will be filled with a variety of interesting road cars, with a decided Italian bias. Some of the competition cars will be put through their paces on the Mercedes-Benz World test track, and selected cars will also run up the demanding Brooklands Test Hill.

There will be a dedicated Abarth parking area.

As before, those with competition, special or interesting cars are invited to apply for a space in the Mercedes-Benz World track demonstration and everyone is invited to apply for a run up the Test Hill.  To apply for the track parade, you need to contact Phil Ward directly on mail@philwardevents.com Test Hill registration will be possible on the day.

You can purchase tickets in advance from: www.brooklandsmuseum.com

Just turn and find it..... hopefully the marshalls will point you in the right direction.

This event is a lot less crowded than the one in early May....... but still a good day out.

Now had the site map through. We are located more or less where we were last year on the approach to the banking, between Ferrari and Alfa Owners Clubs.

There is a large contingent of classic Abarths attending, and which you will be able to see in the lunchtime track action around the MB World circuit.
