Right, I need a wee bit of advise.
The sports 2000 boys are intending to run again at 'Spa Summer Classic' 10-12 June 2011. What other races are going to be run that weekend? Wil the CSCC calender tell me? or are there other races from other clubs held as well. |

Can't help with the specifics as to what is running but have to say that this is the most fun event that I have raced at in the last couple of years

I've been checking the Roadbook website weekly and they have yet to announce the programme.
As I posted elsewhere last year I did the 2 x 30 min S2000 races and the 1 hr race. This year I'll see what the programme is before finally deciding but hopefully will do either a 1 hr race or longer in the T492 and try and rattle the piggy bank to rent a Duratec for the 30 min S2000 races. Rumour is the Saker's will be there as well. Regards Kevin |

I think there will be a long distance GT race there as a friend if mine is planning to use it as a shake down for his Cobra ahead of the 6 Hour later in the year.

The Spa Summer Classic is run by an organisation called "Roadbook", I think.
Have a look at their web site & it may help. Google for "Roadbook & Spa Summer Classic" or something similar. |

Spa Summer Classic 2011
The S2000 mob are out in force have a look at this entry list for the 2 30min races. I'm cheating a bit by listing this as Historics as all the cars are running together but we are hopefull of a full 52 car grid.
Anyone got a contact address for John Webb as I'm sure this would make him smile. http://www.roadbook.be/spasummerclas...ummerRace7.pdf Regards to all Kevin Cooke Last edited by Kevin Cooke; 10 May 2011 at 20:00. |

Note to anyone participating in his event - the Belgian organising club are running it to FIA safety regulations so make sure your car and your kit is up to current Appendix J spec. One specific that nearly caught us out was that fire extinguishers now have to be secured with bolted clamps rather than overcentre catches. All FIA spec kits are now supplied with these (according to Lifeline) but this will catch out a lot of club racers.

One other point on extinguishers is the rules state 2.4litre bottles, in the UK we seem to have 2.25 or 4lt so if you have the smaller bottle you may need to change it as I think last year an exception was made as they changed the rule a bit too late. It's worth checking up on anyhow.

Do all these regs apply to a 1959 (ie period G ) car?

Fortunately the timing of the race allows one to watch Le Mans |

Presumably you are not commuting between Spa and Le Mans to watch the race! So how will you be accessing the coverage and can we come and watch too?!!!

Re fire extinguisher brackets and the requirement this year for bolts – if like me you have a SPA Design fire extinguisher, you can buy the necessary upgraded brackets with their mountings direct from SPA on 01543 434 580 – roughly £50 with carriage and VAT.

I was just planning to watch Le Mans at the bar on top of the F1 pits as they tend to show any motorsport that is on TV

I don't think there are any flights into Liege from the UK. It is a big freight hub and handles a few charter flights.
Brussels is the nearest large airport with plenty of flights. Frankfurt Hahn is the best part of 2 hours away. So Brussels is probably simpler. |
