AUTUMN MOTORSPORT DAY
BROOKLANDS MUSEUM
Sunday, October 9th
Competition cars from all ages will be put through their paces on the adjacent Mercedes-Benz World circuit and later in the day, Test Hill will be in action. Expect to see a wide variety of competition cars from Formula 1 and GTs to Touring cars and Group B rally cars. As ever, spectators will have the rare opportunity to see and hear competition cars at close quarters.
If you would like to experience some motorsport for yourself, then why not make your way over to the Finishing Straight, where local motor clubs will be running a demonstration Autotest.
Book your tickets at
https://www.brooklandsmuseum.com/whats-on/autumn-motorsport-day
We will meet and organise convoy, details closer to the date.
Hope to see you there!

Couple suggestions for club/ social events:
- Sunday, Oct 9th - Autumn Motorsport Day at Brooklands Museum
https://www.brooklandsmuseum.com/whats-on/autumn-motorsport-day
- Saturday, Oct 29th - Halloween Action Day at Castle Combe
https://castlecombecircuit.co.uk/shows/halloween-action-day
Please let me know if you're interested.
We are unlikely to get a club stand at Brooklands but we can convoy and park together.
For Castle Combe we can get a stand if there is enough interest.
And dont forget we have Go Japan! at Brands in September

Sorry, have not responded earlier.Quite interested in doing a day.
Couple of questions, Vadim:
Is the club display area outside on the grass?
What time do exhibitors need to be on site each day?
Cheers
Keith
Not sure if its grass (expect so), but you dont have to be every day. Lou and Kevin are there for all 4 days, I am only for Saturday and Sunday.
Pm me with your email address and I will send you club pass

Its sad to be reading review like this (from @itsuki), but considering many of us from the UK have used Tuning Developments multiple times I feel compelled to chip in too.
I have used them many times (first NA, then TD Turbo kit), and in fact all my major mods have been done or installed by Mike's team ( @Mike@TD.co.uk). Never had any issues and the service was always superb (had a manifold blow once, Mike fitted me basically next day and got it sorted pronto). Admittedly, I would go to Warrington myself and speak to Mike as to what I want/ what options are available, etc.
I am not surprised reading "horror stories" about shipping recently. We have covid, brexit and particularly over November-December I had parcels lost, delivered 3-4 weeks later, etc (for example my new wheels were delayed, and then DHL notification arrived a week after the wheels themselves - go figure).
Large number of satisfied customers hopefully will back me up with their 1st hand experience, although there would be an occasional story with unhappy ending (as I have heard with forged engine) - like with any business. Limited Google or FB reviews are not (probably) the representative sample, although anyone who feels they have to leave a 1* review should be listened to by the business aiming to improve their customer service.
I hope with the move to new premises and increase of business Mike will also get someone to help with the customer service/ tracking shipping/ other admin and client communication stuff.

Our "club events" calendar is filling up nicely😀, plenty to choose from and hopefully Covid will no longer be able to spoil the fun this year!
I have updated calendar entries for Tunerfest South (Sunday, June 19th 2022) and Go Japan! (Sunday, Sep 25th 2022) for details of how to book club stand tickets.
Let me know if there are any other events you would like to attend.
There are few more social events on FB and of course plenty of track days both up north and down south to choose from.

Goodwood Breakfast Cub is back. Its a Vee-Power Sunday, but why not!
What is Breakfast Club?
It’s a no-cost, all-welcome motoring show where the visitors and their machines are the stars. There’s no driving – apart from what we hope will be a delightful early-morning run to the circuit on some of Sussex’s finest roads.
