It's looking more promising this year as coupe is on the road :D

Some small updates

We possibly have tracktime at Spa Francorchamps (30 mins) on the Friday morning, so will be taking a trip to Belgium. We need a minimum of 25 people for this.

Also on that Friday, the ring is open to cyclists... so some of us are planning on doing that 8-) I'm taking my mtb but there are cycle hire places around the ring.

Olli seems to be the most enthusiastic about it tbf :lol:

Haha I'm well up for it!

Not gonna be expensive because of the run pack thing which is good!

Max are you coming is more the point!;)

OK, what are our targets to blag a passanger lap in?

Mine is a GT3RS again, preferably a newer shape one.

GT2RS wouldn't go a miss either really.

How many people went with you in 2009 Toby?

This sounds really interesting and is bang in the middle of the holidays. Very tempted as Germany was amazing last time I went and I really want to take the 'loon across. Maybe I'll drop that 1W lump in and get some good economy!

Do it simon!

Really tempted, need more miles on the clock. But it's an exciting prospect. Can I not take the 9n and play support? :lol:

What happens when things go tits though? So many retro motors, some poor bastards going to break down (probably me!).

And Toby, how does your car qualify, wasn't the 2F released in 1991? :lol:

I'm sure someone will tow you home if it aint fixable!

Are you volunteering?

Just a quick on for you guys. As I live in Germany and do the autobahn often. You can only go into the track on a Sunday unless you have track insurance. They can't give you FULL track insurance there either.
