No, we are not thinking about Ludwig von, but yes, we got back to Le Mans Classic after a (too) long, COVID induced, interruption. And yes, it was everything we hoped for – and more. In broad strokes: A masterful organization of the whole event, supported by a glorious weather – Check! A wonderful Suixtil …

A(nother) great day at the Museum
Count us – and, by extension, you as well, lucky – we have just been able to take another trip to the great museum of the Automobile Club de L’Ouest – the custodian of the 24 hours of Le Mans. It was, as could be expected, a treat, with so many cars and moments encapsulated …

The Vernasca Silver Flag keeps getting better (if that’s even possible)….
Back to its regular programming in June, audiences have once again gathered to celebrate everything motorized in Piacenza (between Milan and Parma, for reference), for that for the Vernasca Silver Flag. This was in keeping with a long-established tradition, while, at the same time, staying nicely under the radar so that the gathering still has …

Our friends from Hagerty do it again – in Greenwich this time!
In another classic case of “success breeds success”, our friends at Hagerty have demonstrated once again their knack for putting together events that people love. Not only that, but these turn out to be true magnets not just for afficionados but also for new comers to the (dare we call it that) hobby – if …

A brand new (ah!) racing series and your brand is associated with it – glorious we say!
Count us lucky – or have we asked you for that favor before? We are so fortunate – having preached the Suixtil gospel for a while now, our friends Pia and Tony, yes them from the Historic Racing Repertoire, approached us with an offer we couldn’t refuse (no animal was armed in the process though): …

Hard racing and great fun at VIR
It could be wondered why we would make space for photos of Dave, our friend and US Ambassador, having a good time racing Nazdar (his trusted, but at times capricious, 2002) at VIR, all of 80 years young, hooking up with an old friend and jumping in his ride for a stint at an Enduro …

Another, the 5th now, glorious edition of the leaky tap 😉
Because things are different in the Netherlands, Alex (our Dutch distributor) is able to enlist aficionados in the middle of the winter. Whether it’s because they have known him for so long, thanks to the participation and support from Octane NL or because they all enjoy some masochistic traits somehow (to brave such a biting …

The Amelia dazzles – and Mariano’s there to see it all!
Yes, talk about turning a corner – the Amelia (as it is now known) has always occupied a special place in the calendar – of course, the Arizona auctions earlier in the year mark a great kick-off to the season, but it is with the Amelia that things really get started in earnest. It’s a …

BAM! Our Dave does Sebring (again)….
We bet you know the infectious song, the one that goes “Oh yes, it’s good to be the king” – well, figure that our Dave, 6-time SVRA champ and BARC Boys founding member (and Suixtil Ambassador for more years than we care to remember) knows a thing or two about the feeling. This must be …

Peter, our Danish Ambassador (and so much more) also visits Balcarce
So much more because, of course, Peter is – for those of you who follow our efforts – a famed F1 photographer with more than 600 GP behind his lense(s – of couse it is, by now, a plural, even for such a singular record!). Let it be said that Peter has had a chance …
