The weather has cooled off and the daylight hours are dwindling, but that didn't stop us making the most of October with a packed calendar of events.
Croatia Tour — Monday 30th September - Friday 4th October
Concluding each driving day in 5-star hotels by the Adriatic coast makes the Croatia tour feel more like a holiday than a driving tour, but the winding roads and stunning scenery are not to be missed, and Croatia has quickly become a favourite in our calendar.
Graypaul Nottingham Breakfast Meet — Saturday 5th October
Ferrari Colchester Breakfast Meet — Saturday 5th October
Meanwhile in the south, the Ferrari theme continued with a breakfast meet and test drives in the Roma Spider and 296 GTB at Ferrari Colchester's state-of-the-art showroom.
South to North Downs Drive — Saturday 12th October
Led by regional organiser Paul, this drive wound through some of our favourite roads in the area before ending for a breakfast social at Podium Place, described as Berkshire's ultimate petrolhead cafe.
Yorkshire Moors Chase — Sunday 13th October
As we come towards the end of driving season, a great turnout of members met at the crack of dawn to chase the sunrise with Luke on the fantastic roads of the Yorkshire Moors, ending at Fletchers Farm Shop for breakfast.
Peaks Blitz — Sunday 13th October
Meanwhile in the Peak District, Paul led the way on the roads we know and love as the sun rose, passing the Hope Valley for our last few miles before ending for breakfast at The Barrel Inn.
Surface Transforms Factory Tour — Wednesday 17th October
A rare glimpse behind the scenes at carbon ceramic brake manufacturer Surface Transforms. CEO Kevin led a group of members around the factory, sharing his passion and unrivalled knowledge of the painstaking processes involved.
Cambs Drive to C&M The Bowl — Sunday 20th October
A fabulous turnout for an early morning drive led by regional organisers Tim and Chris, ending at Caffeine & Machine's The Bowl for breakfast and a social.
Romans International Breakfast Meet — Saturday 26th October
The weather wasn't on our side but spirits are always high visiting Romans International and their amazing new showroom. Tom and the team kindly organised breakfast for us to have a lovely catch up whilst browsing their top-tier stock.
Simon Gillard Memorial Drive — Sunday 27th October
You may have heard this month of the sad passing of Supercar Driver member Simon Gillard after a long battle with cancer. To commemorate this kind, passionate man we organised a drive over to Ferrari Leeds in honour of him. The sun came out especially for a great drive, and fond memories shared with Simon's wife and family joining us for breakfast at Ferrari.
