in the 'fast' (what we call Inters) group. perhaps not the best value trackday ever but if you've ever seen the place close up, you'll know it just has to be done, this should give you an idea http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJIsLuKfqvI |

Spa nice.
Only driven down the hill of the old circuit in a van round the first 90 degree bend up the start straight all in a van as it used to be part of the main road. |

Best circuit ever!!
Done a very quick lap in a bmw batmobile in the 70s with tom walkinshaw at the wheel, a couple of laps in a works capri and a lap in my rs2000 towing the family caravan,(ok so I'm getting on abit), it's the best circuit that I've been to and theres just something magic about the place. |

You know I'd have joined you if I could have. You'll have a great time.
I'm very jealous.

You lucky so and so
Did two trackdays there year before last. Dont know if you've been with bikersdays before but they're very well organised. Stumpy and I particularily liked the fulltime properly trained marshalls, they even give you blue flags if some one is behind you. The circuit itself is absolutely superb, its like Donnington on steroids, had the GSXR1000 flat out in top going up the hill. knee down everywhere, the tarmac is unlike any UK track, super grippy and very smooth. So many highlights, even the mickey mouse chicane at the end of the lap is good for backing it in, its so smooth and predictable. You'll have an amazing time, git |

Did you see this article?
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/82285 Might be worth dropping them an email. Still deeply jealous, it is a fantastic track |
