it was great thanks to meeting you all, thanks to your even nicer cars (mine was the worse - i'll try to do better next year), thanks to diversity of cars, thanks to Spa Clasisc that is top (races, full access nearly anywhere in paddocks, THE track and club sessions... very "open")

thanks to some stories, laughts at the restaurant, and some other laught while catching some hidden sleepers

Lol I don't think we were out on track at the same time, I'm sure I would've been lapped at least a few times though :p

I know, sorry about that. We only managed to get to the track for the Sunday so stuck around the Z's for a little bit in the morning before checking out all the other cars there. What a selection though!

Nathan, you were driving as the organisers intended I think. The others are madheads ;-)

Good clear view however if you ever do a 'proper' trackday you wont be allowed to have a hand-held camera and certainly not hanging out of the window. You have to have windows shut (in case you roll and put your arm out) and cameras mounted solidly (not even suction mounts).

I bet you enjoyed the experience of driving on one of the best cars on one of the best tracks.

Not actually Spa but here's a clip of our squirt down the autobahn. A bit jerky as the camera was attached to my hand. My speedo is only .5mph out at 70 but quite a lot when you get near the top end.

There were people in big audi's and BM's passing us which made it seam a little slow at times.

This clip is the end of my first lap. Still nervous after the 911 spun in front of me I was taking it easy.
The Cobra comes past as if I'm in reverse, he was going to fast for La Source as he locks up and ends up off track.
I saw my mate closing up in his Carrera RS so took a wide line to let him pass. Well impressed with how the 240 went past him, didn't look like he had room
