Please note tickets are no longer available for this event.

The Alfa Romeo Owners Club MiTo Register will be returning for a MiTo Sprint day only for MiTos on Wednesday 19^th June 2024, precisely 16 years to the day that Alfa Romeo launched the MiTo at Castello Sforzesco in Milan on 19^th June 2008.

Curborough Sprint Course is a fast but safe environment for experienced or budding amateurs to try their Alfa Romeo on a track at their own speed and skill level - first-timers are hugely welcome! Curborough can be found at Netherstowe Lane, Lichfield WS13 8E, or you can visit the Curborough website at https://www.curborough.co.uk/

This event is for AROC Members only and is limited to the Alfa Romeo MiTo. Your membership details will be validated against an existing, active membership.

Places are limited to ensure all participants get lots of track time, so if you get a ticket you can sure to get on the track!

You may bring an adult partner or friend to spectate or have passenger rides but they cannot drive on the track. Only ticket holders may drive due to liability.

HOW DOES THE SPRINT DAY WORK?

Members arrive in good time before 9.30am to receive a safety briefing. Anyone not present for the safety briefing will not be allowed on the track.

All participants will then participate in a slow practice lap to ensure everyone knows the safe route around the track.

Track time will commence after the practice laps, and will be one car at a time. There will be plenty of time for being on the track, and you will get to meet and speak to other members in the paddock as everyone forms a queue to join the track, and spectating others throughout the day is half the fun.

Track time will be 3 full laps of the circuit before exiting the track and joining the queue again.

And don’t worry about the weather! Curborough is just as much fun in the wet as it is in the dry. The event will go ahead whatever the weather, and finding the limits in your Alfa Romeo on wet tarmac can be even more of a fun experience than in the dry! And it makes you a safer driver on the roads.

FINDING CURBOROUGH

If using a SatNav, the nearest Postcode is WS13 8EJ, but this is half way up Netherstowe Lane. The entrance to Curborough is at the top of Netherstowe Lane, near the junction with Wood End Lane which leads to the A38 in the East and the A515 in the West. Curborough is Brown Signed (small Chequered Flag symbol) once on Wood End Lane.

There will be an AROC flag at the entrance to Curborough on Netherstowe Lane. If you are following a SatNav heading north on Netherstowe Lane but haven’t seen the flag yet, keep going!

If you are coming from the A515 or the A38 onto Wood End Lane, turn onto Netherstowe Lane and the entrance to Curborough will be after approx. 100yds, identified by the AROC flag.

WHAT IF IT RAINS?

The beauty of Curborough is that it is as thrilling and fun in any weather. Be sure to bring an umbrella and a coat for when you’re spectating, but the track time will be fantastic!
