Maybe you are going?

"Different choice"
in the meantime I give you some infos since I used to go every year for this trackday:
1) check the weather forecasts before leaving, early november usually very rainy in italy (north and centre-north), it's a fast track with fast curves...not easy, if wet you loose 90% of enjoyment
2) check the website in the days before the event, they usually organize stints between < and > 300 hp cars so you can skip turns with very slow cars
3) I recommend turns early in the morning (9.00 and 9.30 for instance)...almost nobody on track, perfect to gain confidence with track...or going flat out whether already confident , in the afternoon always too much traffic
4) don't miss a dinner (or lunch) at "il Palagio"...just beside the circuit

Great, I am not booking yet until probably middle October.

Let's see how me and the car are doing after the first few track days. My last booked track day is October 25 (Hockenheim) than I must decide to go to Italy in November or ship the car home.

We keep in touch, nicer to go with some local advice :-)
