Very nice Mike - I had hoped the Jaguar Mk2 would be ready in time but had to admit defeat about a week ago and switch it for the Sabre Six, good news is taht it did it last year so presumably knows its way round!!

A few of us were going to enter this year,but the guy who own's the car has decided that the offer to buy the car from elsewhere was better than letting three instructors loose in it for 6hrs. Cant blame him as the telephone number offer was a little too good to refuse!
We'll have to be content with two full days there starting on the 11th instead. |

SHADES REQUIRED?
Looking at GP practice yesterday, there seems to have been a lot of red and yellow paint applied at Spa this year!
Perhaps it will have toned down a bit by mid September..... |

Just doing the "Barry" race in Jon's TVR this year; the full 6Hr still an aspiration but it seems that I've been volunteered as pit crew in the main event so I'm getting closer to competing in it!

Well looks like we will be attending our first 6 hour's of spa in 4 weeks, tried the usual places we stay at spa but either booked or to expensive so camping and hoping for good weather, unfortunately that means an estae car rather than the Stag but at least we will be there

Final instructions including timetable are out. On Roadbook.be website, right hand side under title "Log Book".
As usual no entry for competitors until 1900hrs Wednesday. Unless you are doing F1 etc noisy testing that day, in which case no problem....... |

I was afraid I was going to be missing it as well. We sent an entry in for Barry Sidery's race and we aint on the list
It seems he mislaid the forms so all sorted now. |

Fingers crossed no snow there like in May..... Glad you've made it Tim. Envy you being in the civilised paddock! I'll wander over and see who else is about at some point. |

No, he said he'd been through all the entries and missed mine out. I think you need to ring home tomorrow and check as he's off to Goodwood shortly. I've had to resend and entry to him and email Vincent my details.

Blimey has he got a phone at home now, we used to have to send a telegram or use a pigeon ! I'll probably see him at Goodwood before I fly off and sorry Tim and others no free Larkins at the 6HR this year.
