Yup, should be at least two of us. With luck and a following wind I will be in GTSCC- in a car have never driven the type before, so should be fun!
Are you racing, Ed, or enjoying the social side (or both)!

Mike - I did the English language commentary and podium's for the first four Algarve Classics, til the circuit and promoter got into financial difficulty. I've tried to connect with Diogo Ferrao for this year, but no reply - so most likely it's a glass or two of Sargres, pool-side in the paddock for me Mike.
What's your new GTSCC ride? - not the Tachyon Motorsport Corvette

In answer to both, I should be out in a Grantura, privileged to be sharing with the owner.  Having said that, I would be up for a go in a Grand Sport!
Ed, please introduce yourself at some point. If you have previously, then my apologies! If all goes to plan, we will be a GTSCC box with 2 SLRs & TVR, plus several others, no doubt.....

Last time I did, you had handful of gear ratio's..
It looks as though it will be a really good end to the European season, a lot easier to get to than Paul Ricard and oodles cheaper than Daytona!!

Really? Probably the year I raced my Delta FF2000, then!
Any racers still hesitating on whether to go, pretty sure slots on most grids available and some spaces with the pro transport chappies. If you need any names pm me.....

Will you cant go wrong
You are down to drive both of the 356's
I understand from the worlds susposed no1 UK'ish piolet that the disc brakes cars are at least 10 secs a lap quicker round Spa so let's see.
Of course that's rubbish!

Enjoy yourselves. We were unable to sort out logistics so it's a week on a Spanish beach for us. It's a great circuit and I really hope we can go back next year.
