Would love to see you but I think 14/10 on a Monday is favourite but weather dependant.

Traffic might be heavy on the 9/10 :)

You will love the track hope the weather holds out, but still good to drive in the wet :-D

Spa imho isn't too slippy in the wet BUT the big fast corners are bum ticklers when you have standing water!

I will be at Spa on the 9th, after picking up my stricken E36 from Jaco at the Ring on the 8th. If the weather holds up, should be an awesome day.

I'm doing Bedford GT on 21 October, but not 15th.

I getting tempted for the 14th at Spa. I've got a drift day in Papenburg, North Germany on the 13th so I might hammer it down to Spa after for the Monday.

What hotel and return chunnel times are you chaps doing?

Well, no records broken but 3 SG CSLs hooning was good fun. I think we tried harder than anybody else there to make an impact :)

We shall be called from now one: Mr Neutral, Mr Understeeer and Mr Oversteer.

Got some vids later but after a few sessions showing Leaded the way round Spa he promptly went out and scared both ONeill and me by showing us what he was practising at Papenburg and drifting corner after corner. I was passenger and showing him the lines to Pouhon and I said floor it as you see the final apex and and he did so, pushed the back end out and did a 90mph power drift :)


Marshalls didn't give a shit ;)

[billyboysm3]

Wicked!!! post those videos.

[leaded]

Great to meet you guys. Shimmy thanks for showing us around, the veteran of CSL ownership and track setup, very very impressive driving and car setup.

Barry, brilliant driving and amazing last minute braking, just clarify for me one more time, you prefer the 18s or the 19s?? :hahaha:

Hope the drive home wasn't too treacherous on the cups, I did think about you guys as I was trying to make my windscreen wipers go faster than their max.

Mr Oversteer will be at Snetterton 100 in December if anyone is keen (£99 for the day):

[O'Neill]

Mr flying, Mr crying and Mr 90degree sliding.

Dry all day which was nice after driving 80% there in torrential rain.

Highlight of my day was the last session as a passenger with leaded, full on drifting the first three corners after kemmel linked up like a pro:smokin:
then drifting the rest. Skills:thumbs:
