Anyone one had any recent contact with the organisers? I've sent them a couple of emails in recent weeks but no reply - just wondered if their contact email is still:
spa@roadbook.be Thanks, Gary |

Actually Iain,he tends to think a very low 3:00 is in order,and I tend to agree.He is a really good attentive driver who does everything exactly as told.Unlike some who already know the efing lot.
Some people just a little behind the times it would seem.

I often see small camp sites dotted around near the circuit . Guess good old fashion Google search . You can camp inside if you want but grass is very limited at spa these days .

As Iain says, you see small tents erected around the paddock edges, but likely very noisy! The fields beside the road from Stavelot to Blanchimont entrance sometimes have tents in them. Also cattle......
With the GP coming up, sure there will be some info on the web appearing. Meanwhile, Wednesday 14th has been declared a noisy track day. Expect to see HF1s dodging the odd 6hr entry.... Wonder what Thursday is being used for?http://www.roadbook.be/trackday/# |

I've now had confirmation from Vincent that Thursday will be the normal 103db sessioned test day, with booking on arrival. So noisy testing Wednesday, quiet testing day before Q. Guess that means HF1s will be there Tuesday eve...

This tank capacity rule is un necessary meddling IMO. It actually goes against my cars homologation with a 1500 engine and 120L. It was specifically homologated for long races.

I agree with you, Joe, yet at the same time they are freeing up other areas that are not of the period.

The regs quoted above are specific to the 6hr race, as far as I know, so may not apply to other races at the meeting. The standard RACB regs (on Spa6 website) should apply to any others.....

Its App K . . . . Having just had my car inspected I was told 100 L . . . . got a stony look when I said its homologated with 120. apparently I can also run DCOE 45's instead of 40's. Although that's rather pointless unless I'm running 1760 instead of 1500!

I was referring to the OP's question regarding foam filling, not capacity!
