A few of us from Scotland (usual Knockhill Porsche group) are doing SPA for a couple of days through Circuit Days and pop over to the Ring for 1 day at the start of October... It's a great price for SPA and we can get also get a good deal on the Ferry if we get 10 cars (we have 7 at the moment).

If anyone interested drop me a pm or contact Gordon Campbell on 07720 447901

Where you catching the ferry from? I've been looking at the prices for Rosyth and it seems to have dropped in price and now lines up with the Newcastle crossing. I'm sure it was almost double the price when it re-opened?!

Already off the the 'ring the first weekend in October, see you there. Keep an eye out for a really slow Blue Fiat 500.

I had something similar pencilled in for around this time. If there's a mailing list, then count me in for now until I'm in a position to say yae or nae.

We were leaving from Newcastle... we already tried Rosyth and it still works out expensive, can get Gordon to give them a call again I suppose... if interested, just give Gordon a call... BTW, it's not just limited to Porsche, think there is an M3 and a Ferrari going also.

We are also meeting a few guys over there that have M3's and also BO Nielson who does Time Attack in his Astra, here he is leading us through at Oulton


Bo was a good laugh, such a great guy to meet!

That's the one... but we are looking at heading off the Friday... here is the plan

We will be leaving UK on Friday 1st October on the Newcastle ferry to Zeebruge.

On Saturday we will be staying near the Nurburgring for some track time on Sat evening and Sunday daytime (although GT racing is also on at SPA on the Sunday)

Sunday evening we will be travelling up to Spa and staying at Spa, Sun, Mon and Tue evening with a final drive back to the ferry on Wed evening.

We have a special rate on track at spa of £215/day - these spaces are limited and I understand that they are more than 50% subscribed already.

Gordon Campbell and Steve Cumming are organising hotels and we are making a group ferry booking the end of this week.

We have about 8 cars already confirmed with most travelling on the newcastle route.

If you are wishing to come along, please drop me an email asap and I will have Gordon contact you to discuss the details. (Please include your mobiles number !)

For anyone that does not wish to drive but may be interested in attending there will be a few passenger seats available which helps share that fuel/ferry cost.

Anyone interested just give Gordon a call on 07720 447901... I have spoken with him this morning, so feel free to call him.

Please note you will have to book SPA through Circuit Days on 01302 743827, ask for Nadine and tell her you are with the Scottish Group, will be £215.00 per day which is a great price considering it's now roughly £300.00+ a day now with anyone else.
