Hello

we are trying to organize the first N.I.M. ( Noble Italian Miting ).
We want spend 2 days in circuits and 3 day driving around Italy ( tuscany, umbria, ecc...) watching wonderfull landscapes, eating good food, drinking good wine and driving a lot!!!

For the 2 circuit what is your best one?

MONZA ( near Milan )
MUGELLO ( near Florence )
IMOLA ( near Bologna )
VALLELUNGA ( near ROME )
ADRIA ( near Padova )
VARANO ( near PARMA )
MAGIONE ( near Perugia )

We need to chose 2 so we are curios about what english drivers love in italy as circuit.

THANKS!!

Excuse my British ignorance, but I've only heard of Monza and Imola - so those two will do nicely, thanks!

GG

I'm trying to organise a European tour at the minute and have Milan and Modena on the route. How about incorporating it into this?

I'm looking at end of July, August time.

Well
we have spoke to NOBLE and he is happy to supply us.

Our idea is to move some British NOBLE across Italy.
We want do 2-3 track days at italian circuit + days of street driving across the landscape stopping to see nice places, test Wines, good food and whatch italian beauties!

By the way we are open to accept any ideas as we need to start to organize it in this period.

Our idea was driving fron North ( Milan ) to Tuscany, then LAZIO ( Rome), Umbria ( Perugia ) and drive back again acroos Bologna and finally Milan-MONZA.

what do you think?

Having done the MotoGiro a few years running now, I can safely say that when it comes to riding/driving on the roads in a more than brisk manner in/on beautiful machinery, there is no more accommodating country than Italy.

How about a parade through Modena to upset the red crowd….!?

Hope to join you.

A parade through Modena with a string of Noble's would be bloody brilliant! I would love to see that.

There is a great restaurant outside the Ferrari factory/museum... highly recommended. Would be great to see a car park full of Nobles....

If I get my car in time and was able to blast it around Monza and Imola in Ayrton Senna's wheeltracks I honestly think I'd leave the tracks crying with pure joy.

Monza & Imola are the only two that cut the mustard. I know them like the back of my hand from Grand Tourismo!! Martin.

Hi Elisek, We met last year tearing through Milan streets, sounds great fun, put me down to go, My suggestion would be down through France,Monte carlo(pose) coffee at casino, should attract some attention, down to the Tuscany area (good wine etc), Across to San Marino(Imola),Up to Monza, Then back through Switzland,Germany,Quick blast round Nurnburgring,Back through Luxemburg to old blighty,with a splattering of good food and hotels in between.

I did this type of thing 2 years ago in a TVR
and ended up at Imola.

Great fun

I would be up for it depending on the dates

Turin, but I don't think a white M12 exists! And I don't fancy my chances on the weir!
