Looking at doing this on the Monday... Not sure whether to take the gamble on the weather though as its meant to rain now - I'm guessing a few people have pulled out because of this which is why it's no longer fully booked... Wish I was more decisive!
This is a much better forecast than the BBC: http://www.windfinder.com/forecast/liege

27 degrees and sunshine is OK with me...

Anyway, even in the rain Spa is great.

Well just back at the hotel after a superb first day - weather in the high 20's - dry all day - only one red stoppage as far as I recall for a Porsche in the scenery after Eaux Rouge - really great fun - got through 5 tanks of super unleaded (Atom has a small tank and with the charger on song drinks it very quickly) - nice mix of cars and all flowing pretty well - forecast great for tomorrow but round here forecasts are not very reliable - I would take another day like today !!

Awesome day yesterday!

I was in the big group of white Exige's and the black 430Scud and the grey Mclaren. We all had awesome weekend.

Thought driving standards were brilliant apart from the red radical who just held up everyone and refused to pull over. Was very strange.... Saw people getting the hump and going past him on the right in the end...

Fabulous day. Thanks to Melindi, Andy and the RSR boys.

Ring was great on sunday until the closure... if you haven't rented a Stage 2 Swift from Rent4Ring before then JUST DO IT! had more fun driving the amazing little Suzuki than I did the Exige and Scuderia at Spa.... thats how good they are!

Get some mates... go Swifting! its AMAZING value for money and so much fun. Equal cars that don't have alot of power teaches you soooooooo much about driving and maintaining momentum etc. You have to earn every metre gained on your buddies! VERY rewarding and fun!

The Macca was going well - we had some fun with it this PM when we had the 3 Atoms out together - saw the green Noble running - really great if extremely hot 2 days on track - good track etiquette barring a few FunCup road blocks - who can argue with 2 dry days at Spa with circa 32 degrees (according to one of the porker guys)

What. A. Day biggrinbiggrinbiggrinbiggrinbiggrin

Track, weather, conditions, people, cars... couldn't have had a more perfect mix IMO.

At times it was like having the entire circuit to yourself. Unbelievable.

Anyway, im going back to my drinks at the Radisson bar.
