James displays on a uncommon probability to affix SCD members on a go to to Lanzante, specialists in essentially the most unique McLaren highway and racing automobiles on the earth.
Since becoming a member of the group at Supercar Driver, I’ve developed a small listing of venues to go to at some point. Lanzante has at all times had a agency spot on that listing, and due to Dean, Charlotte and their welcoming group, we had been lately in a position to organise an open morning solely for 50 SCD members.
Naturally, myself and Aimee put ourselves ahead for this one to avoid wasting our Sheffield-based colleagues the trek right down to Petersfield and it’s protected to say we had been in for a deal with. Vivid-eyed and bushy-tailed, we had been greeted by two McLaren F1 GTRs in reception and got a fast tour of the power by Charlotte. The number of automobiles and artefacts tucked away was actually mind-blowing — I counted six McLaren F1s in complete together with a few very particular P1 tasks together with the newly unveiled P1 Spider.
Joe from Highway Race Rally was in attendance as he handed over a bespoke P1 HDK piece for Lanzante, and we had a terrific turnout from members too. The open day was in assist of FitzRoy, who assist these with studying disabilities, autism and psychological well being issues, and 4 fortunate winners acquired entry tickets to this yr’s SCD Secret Meet! Enormous because of the group for an unimaginable morning, hopefully we’ll be again once more in 2024.
