Safety there is none. Fuel cells on wheels.

Ford GT40 action:

Quick and comfy; the obvious choice for a top placing and a good time.


Busy at the Spa Six Hours 2015 F1 paddock area: driver change!


This is how it looks like from up close: I could smell the adrenaline.

Chevron B8 racing through La Source.


They are small!


When you're up for close racing and cracking sounds the 2 litre sports racers are hard to beat.


Unlucky shot by not holding my camera straight. It's difficult because the action happends in a split second.

The last bit of my Spa6 albums always ends up with bucket loads of La Source snaps. Hope ya'll don't mind:

Big Galaxie 500 negotiating the hair pin.


Lotus Elan is a quick bugger but not much can catch a Ford GT40 at proper speed.


A racing version Big Healey is a whole different ball game compared to a tame 120 brake road spec Austin. Screaming, spitting flames and coughing like a chain smoker this is one hot car to experience in action.
