Just being nosy, I have supported cars at the Six hours a couple of times now and have always really enjoyed it. two questions. How much is an entry? and how hard is it to get an entry?

Best regards

Once again entered for the Top Hat support and when Barry gets his act together I'll enter his race too (if he's got a slot this year).

I've entered the U2TC race, I believe Roger has also, for me its the best weekend of the year.

Are you going to run 10" slicks and a 7L V8 for Barries Race Peter ? Keep up with the Rods, and away from the Elises!

Nope. I'll just not try to pass the Elises this year.

Off topic comment alert
I have to type this or my brain will explode!

It seems that the Group 2 cars in the 70's series may be running slicks next year. If so I hope we can too seeing as its in period.

Thanks for reading, you've been a wonderful audience. Don't forget to try the veal and tip your waitress. We now return you to the topic

there is an invitation class for 66-71. As Zef says - it is the ultimate petrolhead boy's weekend. I am looking forward to it already.
After the disappointment of last years race I think we have a good chance this year (so long as Spa has restocked its fuel pumps, I dread to think how much the Corvette is going to use over 6 hours!!!). Large tracts of the forest will be replanted to recoup the carbon footprint!!!
