I will be booking tickets etc via Hubert so I assume he will ensure we are together.

I am arriving Thursday so that I can go on track Friday too in between qualifying. The 3 days will be expensive but so will the overall trip and by having the 3 sessions I'm hoping that my son and I get at least a dry run each.

The racing should be good, I remember the Group C cars.
 
OK Rob

After a call to Peter organisation, that looks easier to group and dispatch to you.

Hubert has all info.
You'll get a mail shortly from him.

Tickets will be sent to me 2 weeks before event and then I dispatch.

There is a 3 days mail service for UK.

So that matches! :thumbs:

That will be GREAT!

SPA is the nicest track I've ever been!

I was at a 'show' on Saturday called Race Retro, there were 3 Group C cars there including the Nissan. They were advertising their 2011 race series and it was nice to be able to say that I would see them at Spa!

I'll confirm my booking ( payment and form ) with you today.

I liked your video, it was very inspiring. Did anything pass you at all and what tyres were you using, they seemed a little unsuitable?

Your car sounds just like mine, if I closed my eyes I could be in mine.

Any good Rob? I wanted to attend this myself but work commitments got in the way.

Yes I like Race Retro it's not commercialised like the Autosport Show it's just mature (older!) people with no axe to grind or great ambitions just discussing their involvemnet in Historic/Classic Motorsport and what events are available for 2011. Ok there is a bit of the 'good old days' but also lots to look forward to - Historic Motorsport is on the up.

The show covers motorbikes too (big following for those) and I brushed shoulders with G Agostini and P Read whilst browsing.

Autojumble too so got some braided fuel pipe, metal filter and some sheet aluminium whilst there.

Also there is a live Rally Stage outside and a Classic Auction.


Sylvain - sorry for the hijack, blame Ken!

Same here! My lad has seriously injured his knee in a MotoX race and requires major surgery (Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction) but he'll be there with me (but not driving though).

Sylvain - you are very keen I got 3 messages off you today, I have replied but you already had my address on the booking form ;)

Got my 240Z MoT'd today (no problems again) just need to save for the fuel now! A trip to Belgium and 3 days on track is going to be expensive, currently about £1.50 ltr :eek:

Good job it's economical Sean! :thumbs:
 
Sent my address.

Glad I have a modern standard engine that should give me near 35 to the gallon if I keep below 90. :)

yes, I used the 3 medias I knew... kind of insurance due to lack of time.

Sorry I missed that I had in initial inscription form

Now I have twice :D

I'll call organizer to try to get prior... because I am upset with international shipping

Looking foreward

My Z loves petrol also! 16 mpg on motorway :unsure:
