FORMAT OF THE EVENT

The MSA Euroclassic is a non-competitive, scenic tour for classic cars across Europe, incorporating visits to museums, race circuits and other motoring and tourist related locations en route.

The route contains a number of check points, which are open for a specified period, and are manned by experienced and dedicated event officials. There are no timings or penalties for not following the supplied route and participants are free to travel at their own pace.

Participants are supplied with a Route Book which contains tulip style directions as well as marked road maps covering the entire route. This should be all that is needed to travel from one check point to the next, however carrying a sat-nav may be useful, and co-ordinates of check points will be provided for added peace of mind.

As the route is designed with classic cars in mind, we take into account the condition of the roads that are used, and try to avoid big cities during rush hour of which we know classic cars and their owners are not fans. We endeavour to avoid motorways where possible, although we do use short sections of motorway if we need to travel more miles on a particular day.

We aim to supply a mix of scenic check points, such as town centres where cars can be displayed for the locals to view, motor sport and motoring related museums, and also circuits and tracks where the enthusiast has the chance to blow the cobwebs out of their hair. When visiting circuits we ensure that we have exclusive use of the track.

THE HISTORY

180 cars started the first ever RACMSA Euroclassic in 1993, at Brands Hatch on a foggy Saturday morning, and travelled through Kent to Dover. The event picked up in Calais and carried on through France and Belgium to Germany, where it finished at the Nurbürgring on Tuesday morning.

The Euroclassic has run every year since, taking in all of Western Europe as well as Eastern Europe in 2000 and 2010, and Scandinavia in 2005 and 2008.

The event can boast of visits to every current Formula One circuit in Europe, as well as many which are no longer on the calendar. You can view details of all previous Euroclassics by clicking here.
