GT MONTE CARLO 2018
This year’s Supercar Club’s greatest outing will start in September. Its programme is about to include everything a petrolhead needs to thrive – and more, with excess typical to the French Riviera. We have already carried out a prep tour, selecting, as we always do, posh places to get a taste of quality life and a good proportion of rather deserted areas for our engines and ourselves to breath freely. Treasures of the region will abound but roads to drive are really the point so you can expect no less excitement than during our previous tours in Italy and Croatia. Where exactly shall we stop? You’re in for surprise, slightly unveiled by the video below. See you!

WHAT’S YOUR CHOICE?
An opportunity to test the world’s best cars in their classes, on the road and all in one day, is rather uncommon or plainly unique. In our Club we call it Supercar Day. The choice? It’s quite obvious. For a mighty GT coupé we take Ferrari F12. A quick and irrational one – that must be Lamborghini Aventador. Porsche 911 Turbo S for a dose of something reasonable to balance things off. A roadster? Of course, the best we’ve ever driven: Audi R8 V10. And then some more supercars, each having its own niche in terms of various aspects of driving pleasure. The recent weekend is going to be fondly remembered by our Club members. That kind of experience makes it clear which car is money well spent and which is not. The fastest isn’t always the best. The most impressive rarely occurs practical. All in all, the best is the one you find most satisfying on the road.

Monster Truck & Wrack Race
Tough guys don’t just drive cars – instead, they use them to grapple and wrestle. A horde of raging men in fierce rivalry for the finish line in the total demolition race. With blood, sweat and tears matching the jangling sound of main bearings seized up, gearboxes ground to scrap metal and dampers popping up through bonnets – this is our perfectly normal annual Wreck Race. And then, once the smoke settles down, what’s the use of what remained of cars? You can imagine that considering we also had a monster truck this time. To be perfectly earnest, it’s the kind of machinery we’d gladly see in our club’s fleet as weapon to handle Warsaw’s traffic jams.

PRACTICE MAKES... CLUB MEMBERS
Back in 1970s safe speed was a slogan postulated by a legendary rally champion Mr. Sobiesław Zasada. We couldn’t agree more. In our approach, safety in a car stems from awareness, focus and skills which hardly come from pure theory or slow-motion drills around a couple of cones. Instead, regular and well-planned practice is the answer. It’s much in the same way as in the gym – can you get fit by running or lifting weights only now and then? Since the beginning of the club season we are regular guests at racetracks and then we practice healthy road driving, honing our survival skills in the jungle of Polish trunk roads. It’s an immense satisfaction to us seeing our club members start from a rough and basic level and some years later come to rank in the upper echelon of our country’s rallying and racing events.

OUR WEEKEND VISIT AT KUBA’s
Polish hospitality is nothing short of legendary. Now we know that for sure, having had a real proof recently. After a weekend spent at Kuba’s in Beskid highlands we are first to attest what we experienced is yet to be surpassed. Of course we never lose an opportunity if there are some mountain road passes around – and so we did this time not at all restricting ourselves to stationary viewpoints. Great thanks Kuba for everything you gave us! Next time you are welcome in lowlands which doesn’t mean lower levels – absolutely not.
