Are these any good - in terms of organisation, driving standards, number of cars on track etc?

Looking at Premium Day at Spa on May 27th

Thanks in advance...

I instruct for RSR and should be at Spa on the Premium day.
Unbiased view is that RSR offer very low number of cars on track so loads of clear lap time. However it only takes a few bad impacts to force closure time as per any trackday.
Allways some very well turned out cars on track.
Added bonus is the trackwalk at the start of the day. Walking thru Eau Rouge and several other corners really does set the scene for the day and helps you on your way.
If you have never driven Spa before, it is a cracker.

Thanks for that. I've driven Spa a lot, but not for a long time. Last outing was in one of the support races for 1998 Belgian GP, before it was a closed circuit, and when the road still opened at nights!

I've been in touch with RSR today and will get booked up. First day out in new car, and happy I shouldn't crash it...just wary of driving standards, but sounds like it will be good. Maybe see you there...

If you don't mind non open pitlane, perhaps consider curbstone as well. Very well run, bit more expensive with less cars and seperated non road legal race cars.

I used to instruct on many Curbstone days at Spa and they were open pitlane. Also an hour for lunch THEN track only open to full race cars for the following hour. Often had guys keen to get out but couldn't.

It was alternating when I was there late April and as far as I was told had been that way for a bit? road legal cars for 40 minutes then race cars for the next 40 and repeat until the last session of combined cars.
