Hi Toni
If you want to join in, call Melindi on ++44 1327 361361. She is organising the day. She will be very happy to try and help you along. Mention my name so she knows where your interest came from! I hear the garages are massive at Spa so she would most likley put you in with us as a group no problem.
We were thinking of being a bit crazy and going on to the Ring afterwards. Would you be able to find out what public days are happening there? Or could you point me in the right direction to find out myself?

Hi Craig
It is quite easy to get on track at Spa and often club members go. Furure years should be fine so long as the vegetarians don't get the circuit banned in the meantime. Already it now has a noise limit (105 dB) which is a shame as I got a set of megaphones for my car! :-(

Already got the headers so once we confirm chassis and body fit offsets I can look at the pipes.
I would love to go, either with Radical or GT40, but am not sure whether I can justify the expense at the moment. Have been for the last 2 years, last year with the Radical. The new garages are very spacious and well equipped with loos and power points - I would guess they could accommodate some 6 cars with room to work on them. Also they can be locked overnight, so you can leave the cars there. Last year we even left our covered trailer in the garage overnight.
When we planned to combine a visit to Spa with one to the Ring as well the year before last (just another 65 miles or so) they rather inconveniently had a 24 hour race at the Ring, which with practice and the race meant that it was not available for several days. As you probably know, it is road legal cars only (or cars that look as though they are road legal!) on public days at the Ring.
Anyway, I will let you know. I must say I am very tempted to have another go on the best race track in the world. Also the Goldtrack days are well run and informal (you don't need the drivers briefing again on the second day) and there never seem to be a large number of cars on track.
Where are you staying, by the way?
