after balanchimont before entering the bus stop put it in first, it'll do 11500 easily even on a fast road cam. See you at our bar after that and I''ll get you a beer .

I'd assumed the 11,500 red line only applied to 2100cc and 1950cc engines...

Glad to be of assistance. Off to Hull soon, and will be celebrating my birthday on the overnight boat to Zeebrugge.

Interesting you go to Zeebrugge. We also use Hull but go to Rotterdam for Spa. I think the distance from the Rotterdam port is very slightly less and the timings for coming back are better - or were a couple of years ago.

OK, unsticking this now. Apart from going off topic, they are all there now! Also locking it, so that the drivers record their Spa racing experiences on the main Spa thread!
