And there we go again, thanks to Pia and Tony – yes, them, and under the good offices (if somewhat complicated this time) of the HSCC at Brands Hatch, no less. Authenticity fanatics and afficionado alike gathered under the drumbrakes’ series banner to compete fair and square among Suixtil gentlemen racers. And yes, the scheduled …

28th edition of the Vernasca Silver Flag
And there it was, again, time for that blessed race in the Italian hills of Piacenza, under the good auspices of Claudio Casale and his team of volunteers and assorted magicians and geniuses. But that’s not really how it begins, at least not in a Suixtil dimensions where things have to go mad before they …

Heaven on earth – in Argentina, no less…
Oh, and one more thing we forgot to mention we had been lucky to experience during our last trip to Argentina in March. We got kindly invited to meet up at a friend’s out of town haven to visit his collection. It is quite the way out of town and one must be prepared to …

Members’ Meeting at Goodwood
We are so very fortunate that we have many friends – some, like Robbert, who also happens to be our Dutch Ambassador, with such a talent at capturing the moments that matter most that one wonders why they need another job. Might it be just so that they would not put us to complete shame …

Dave and Nazdar are back – at Sonoma!
In the incredible series, please take note that we do not define ourselves as “for the brave” by chance – it’s a Suixtil trait of character. Exhibit 1: take Dave, our US Ambassador for many moons now (and also, shall we mention it again, a BARC Boy of the first hour): 82 years young and …

Meanwhile, still in Argentina…
And while we were slogging it through bad weather in unknown provinces, Mariano, our colleague from the USA but really from Argentinean descend, was rallying in grand style with friends – a true case of horses for courses right there. Going from winery to winery around Mendoza, in landscapes that were just impossible to describe …

Argentinean road trip – part 2 (Mar del Plata & Buenos Aires)
As you, the faithful, might remember, we took a slight detour (just another 10,000 km and a leap into a completely different time-zone) last months to go back to the sources of the Suixtil brand and, at the same time, some of the most glorious hours of motor racing. We’ve already discussed at some lengths …

Meanwhile, in Australia….
And yes, the season is truly back – though this might be the winding down for our Australian friends – then again, what a ways to go: a 4 days rally through the back roads of Victoria culminating (after all sorts of gastronomic, track times and assorted libations as only our cousins Down Under – …

A road trip to Argentina – with a purpose (of course)… – Part I
Visiting Argentina is an experience and more – let us tell you about our latest trip, just this past month. As a preamble, it should be noted that we’d been there before – some 20-odd years ago – and that we have also been around a few other places, often taking the proverbial (and literal) …

The Amelia Concours – back for more!
It has been a while, unfortunately, we had not attended the Amelia (as it is now called since Hagerty took over) and seen for ourselves the changes – and the things that stayed the same. We were very lucky that we took part in the Concours alongside with Christopher John, our latest resell partner based …
