Yes, there's a bunch of us there for the weekend. 25 x Porsche 964s of various types. Can't see the weather being any where near as good as last year but still looking forward to getting back there. smile

Too right about the weather. Just looked and it didn't shout 'flat out all the way' to me!
Mind you, what do they know about weather forecasting!

Yes - will be there in a BaT R300.

Fingers crossed about the weather - has been stunning the past few years so long may it continue!

I will be there too in another BaT R300. First time at Spa so I will be taking it easy while I learn the lines.

For a special treat Du Grand Maur is truly excellent. A more affordable option would be Sol Di Capri which does nice pizzas. Slightly out of town Le Chalet Suisse is good for cheese fondues.

I'm intending to try Au Grain de Sel this Easter, although it never seems to be open when I'm in Spa.

True but the fact that it is open and we can still go is a bonus. smile Last weekend's trackday there was cancelled because of snow still on the track.

The circuit has been in use all day today and it's been bone dry and bright all day. circuit staff are optimistic and seem to think the worst of the weather will be to the west.

anyone's guess at the moment. All we can do is wait and hope.
