Have to say it was an amazing day, weather was perfect, a range of cars out there from a Balboni Lambo, Corvette and a few GT3 RS's. I now understand why people go on about Spa, it's proper track that flows amazingly... just need some sticky tyres for next time :) Big up to the Back on Track boys, as per usual it was down to the last minute with my car, sorted out gear selector and MOT quirks to get me there in time. They were also flat out helping people at the track and off it :) Defiantly going to try go back again this year

TV pictures showing the f1 cars out braking each other into the right hander after the long straight from climbing the eau-rouge hill. You suddenly realise just how tight that right/left is , plus the chicane at the end of the lap. The best bit is the second half , I love the the downhill sweepers, you pick up so much speed, then have to stay flat out back up to the top again.

Alain those are awesome videos, looks like a lovely bit of driving. You need to get yourself a video data logger! Will you be at the Goldtrack event on 4,5 June st Spa?

Normally not. Maybe if I am free I come take a look its only 1u30 driving from where I'm living.

Monday 26th I go to Silverstone with LoT
First time to England with my Speedster!

I want to learn the track before my first race in the Lotus Trophy (14april)
