Wouldn't want to get to Belgium after paying for the day and them tell you to do one because your membership has expired.

Not suitable as a FIRST track day.

acording to that yes thumbsup but you might want to do another to get some more practice in first.

Somebody who has driven it before could make a better call than me :)

Sure it was my 4th track day I did Spa but would say it's fine :) just start slow as with any track day and build up from there ;) maybe get some instruction if you fancy it. Been a large track I found it never feels to crowded like some tracks do which probably helps - BRILLIANT track!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Martin said he was going to look at crossing/hotel packages with speedchills, i'll drop him a PM.

The 17.20 return was based on a night in Brugge, so we had a full day to have a nose round there. But if we're no longer doing that it might be better to make the crossing a bit earlier so people can get on with their journeys?

in truth I would prefer an earlier crossing UK- France , as with the time difference , I think we might want to avoid peak evening traffic through Brussels. Then get settled in to hotel in plenty of time.

We are gonna need to make up minds fairly quickly as it is Easter weekend and crossings will get pretty full pretty quickly.
