If anyone is already there or can pick a spot can they post time and place for a meet preferably around 1 o'clock

Well an absolutely brilliant time in Spa, meet up with Adrian (frogleet) soon after arriving and Vince a couple of times, plus the usual Dutch contingent and then Eric (batmobile) on the walk around. A great dayout although after getting up at 4 on saturday morning and hitting the bed back home at 3 on sunday morning i suspect it will catch up with me later today. Weather was the best i have ever experienced at Spa, not a drop of rain and lovely warm sunshine

Got back from the track. I loved it..great venue, some great viewing locations....especially at eau rouge, down the kemmel straight, and before Pouhon where you can see from high above. Enjoyed every minute of it...except for not bringing any sun cream :P

I do however was a bit disappointing in the autograph session. People were pushing each other left and right just to grab an autograph. I was waiting by the Audi number 7 and it was mayhem. A woman even pushed a couple of kids out of her way just for a scribble on a piece of paper. I know not the organisators fault, but that was a bit disappointing.

We are 2hrs + from home what a grand 4 days we've had, glad I packed shorts, though we're all red raw!

Chance of weather like that for the whole duration? 1000/1 ha! Great race though plenty of shunts, dramas and reliability issues.. Now for LM

Sad to have missed it, but watched a decent whack of it on the app and revisiting some more of it this evening.

One word of warning though - if the weather is magnificent at Spa it does raise a degree of menace for Le Mans in June. As I've said previously, there simply isn't enough good weather in existence to ensure we have a warm and dry Spa and Le Mans in the same year...

With global warming, greenhouse effects and el niño, I believe there's enough good weather to go around!

[batmobile]

All was perfect for a first timer

[GT6]

Well just watched the race on motors TV and it was almost as exciting as i was on saturday, seeing all the incidents and the last few laps, you miss some things when you are there but glad i went and the count down to le mans now really begins
