Yes you're allowed to. There's power sockets but you need a 16A blue connector.
There's a pizza restaurant in francorchamps that does takeaways.
Cheers Neil. This camping malarkey is going one of two ways probably steered by the weather. It's going to be sunny right??There's a pizza restaurant in francorchamps that does takeaways.
Spa is epic

Check out Malmedy as well, about 6km from the circuit, small little Belgium town, but very nice restaurants in the town square, I was there a week ago for the 24h race and then a car trackday.
Spa is epic
Cheers for the tip. Looks a bit rainy this week so might book a hotel in Malmedy rather than the van, beers & BBQ thing in the paddock which is only fun if it's sunny. Spa is epic
Caught a bit of the car 24 hours on TV in vain effort to learn where it goes after Eau Rouge.
Spa at the moment seems epically expensive so I'm hoping the track is good!!

Bought the ally weld but decided to put it in the garage for a rainy day and get it welded properly. My uncle owns a fabrications firm in Maldon, Essex and is excellent with ally which is a bit of an art to master
Engine is out, trying to find my flywheel puller from the rebuild back at xmas then get the engine over to be repaired and welded and strengthened. I couldnt find a guard as such like I had on my mx bikes so I'll just get it triple thick ally welded in place
Until then I'll just sulk as a silly drop means I wont have it working for atleast 2 weeks. On a plus some of the pictures came out pretty good and although it was a fast track (I prefer tight technical) I will be back to try improve my flow round there
Class photos there Birky, youre only gonna get faster and ruffle some feathers.

Will check it out when I'm waiting for the tunnel. 5th gear sweepers in the rain through the trees - yummy!Dakkon said:
It is simply the best track I have ever driven, it has something of everything and it is not as long as the 'Ring with more runoff.
Decent straights, fast sweepers, a tight hairpin, serious elevation change and of course Eau Rouge / Raidillon.
You won't be disappointed.
Looking forward to it. Hotel in Malmedy now booked - balls to the continuing expense. Decent straights, fast sweepers, a tight hairpin, serious elevation change and of course Eau Rouge / Raidillon.
You won't be disappointed.

Did you get the watch and water bottles and shirt?
Yes on all counts, although they did cost £20,000, the good news was I got a free bike with them. Have fun Simon. Have you sold the HP4 then?

Gate crashed it last year to watch Biker's Nemesis take on Alex Lowes. It was mentally hot and I helped myself to all the refreshments and freebies. Their visor wipes are the trickest ever, still got a few left over.
Have fun Simon. Have you sold the HP4 then?
It's soaking wet here,not allowed on track yet as too wet! Have fun Simon. Have you sold the HP4 then?
Still got the HP4, just adding to the stable
Enjoy Spa. The best track I've ever ridden.
