What's a good lap time at Spa?
Discussion
I don't get any where near the sort of times quoted here but I can assure anyone that it is still a fantastic place to drive at a more moderate place. Spa is truly magical
Here's a video one of our guys (Porsche964FP) made of our pilgramage to Spa last week. I think it sums up the place perfectly.

Second lap of 2 better at 3.04ish, guessing at video clock . . . Haven't looked at rest of video footage, may have gone quicker, but was first time at Spa and first time in the car, only put this up to shows Vicki's feet waving about in the footwell and read the thread so thought I'd check the times.
1.6k SV Superlight, with my svelte 17 stone and my wife (who weighs half that amount), either way Kemmel was very long and very slow with only 135bhp, running on CR500's.
Now busily completely re-building the car having bought it and will be back this year aiming for at least sub 3mins ....

Managed a 2:56 in my Cayman R a couple of weeks back. 2 up, standard tyres in the dry. Can anyone tell me whether that's respectable?
Thats good going mate,i was doing similar times in a Cayman S 1up with a mild mods, heres a little vid from a few years ago http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VUzi_3vADY
Was there yesterday, best lap at 2.42.92 with a 997GT3RS MKI on (used) slicks. Several race cars there, the 997 cups where not really much faster. Some video:

Some nice laps there in the Porsche it makes it look so effortless!
Was there in April in my 4L T350 and managed a best of 2:56 on 888's.
Will be back in October for DN6 & Spa with the LS Griff and Tuscan Challenge car so will finally get to run Spa in a race car on slicks!
Is easily my fav circuit and thats after only 2 visits!

Was there yesterday for my first visit to spa and managed a 2.49 in my e92 m3 on dunlop tyres.The track is absolutely amazing which was a nice surprise as so many people kept saying its nowhere near as good as the ring.Will definately go back next year.
Really ?? I have not been to the ring yet,but the Spa track in my opinion is fantastic to say the least.Gassing Station | Track Days | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
