That is easy, just say when.
I know the very old lay out, before the Malmedy chicane. First visit was 1970 I think. "Raced" only once on the old track: Marshalled a lot there and did many hundreds of laps on the old track. Maybe a mod can make a new thread of this all? |

Isn't the Masta Kink on the road from Les Combes to Malmedy? Only if it is you shouldn't be anywhere near it heading to Stavelot. I thought it was the place with the handrail and low level footpath on the right by the houses.

The Masta kink is between Malmedy and Stavelot, where the friterie is on the left if you are going towards Stavelot. The buildings are just around the corner. This is the entry of the old R-L-R chicane after it was changed. |

Another thread down the sink.
What puzzles me is the hairdryer up in the air and nobody holding it. @ Delta: no problem, maybe we can organise a bus tour. |

Well I've had similar thoughts.
And believe me, when I have to think it hurts a lot. But it is something to think about. |

Guys its a great idea , We are bringing some new Historic FF2000 drivers next year and they would love the chance to look at the old circuit. We have our AGM Saturday i will ask how many are up for it. Start looking for a bus Eddy V. We could make a fortune, Well have a load of fun anyway.
