    There's probably another thread somewhere, but I can't be bothered looking - anyone going?

    Featured marque is Fiat, featured model is the Lampredi pushrod engined cars - 1300/1500/ 1800/2100/2300 - I'll take pictures of any 2300S for Moretti....

    I think this is Moretti's old car in the middle of these three today. It certainly looked 3 seconds slower. :)

    Compensation: everyone knows that italian flag stickers subtract 3 seconds from lap times...

    Great day, about a dozen 2300S and lots of other cared for Fiats, nice to see. I enjoyed the perfect 1100D Riveria, exactly the same as my Mum had in the 60's.

    Good turnout of cars and bikes - I've never seen a Benelli 6 before, lots of oddball stuff.

    I believe that the Benelli engine was based on a Honda 500 - not a bad thing, but probably an answer to a question nobody asked..

    Thanks for posting a few pics guys. I wasn't able to attend, so if you could post a few more of the interesting stuff (OHOS especially) it'd be appreciated.
