History:
The Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps motor-racing circuit is the venue of the Formula One Belgian Grand Prix, and of the Spa 24 Hours and 1000 km SPA endurance races.
Designed in 1920 by Jules de Their and Henri Langlois Van Ophem, the original triangle-shaped course used public roads between the Belgian towns of Francorchamps, Malmedy, and Stavelot. The track was intended to have hosted its inaugural race in August 1921, however this event had to be cancelled as there was only one entrant. The first car race was held at the circuit in 1922, and two years later saw the first running of the now famous 24 Hours of Francorchamps race. [Wikipedia]

Oh yeah baby! I am in!

 

[m4nu]

Count me in. There is another open bill from last year, maximum attack!

 

[Tom]

I'm in! I already own the track & all cars (except Audi), so I can use my own account for this one.

 

[Corbs]

I'm in

 

[Gxbbs]

Can’t make any promises but I will try to attend.

[Bassetts]

We have most of the usual reproabtes from car #66 confirmed now

 

[2scoops]

I've said it another thread, but just to confirm that I will be on holiday that weekend will be booking my own holidays next year.

 

[m4nu]

I am sure that @Cluck or @FlyingKman would be keen to race for you

 

[Tom]

No torpedo actions please

It's probably Audi / Mercedes that we'll be running. The McLaren and Ford cannot keep up. The BMW I've not tested yet.

Send the missus on vacation alone on these weekends

Or @Pamellaaa ?

Potentially interested in this, I imagine I should be able to get my own licence high enough in time for this and I could buy content if required so if someone else could use the account then that's fine by me.

@Dutchtastic I know you know the McLaren is the fastest car right now. I would expect to see that.

 

[Cluck]

I can't take part, sorry. Busy with a double-birthday celebration that weekend and no way I'm missing out on a weekend of boozing with my real-world friends

 

[Dutchtastic]

@Dutchtastic I know you know the McLaren is the fastest car right now. I would expect to see that.

Guess I have to do a bit more setup learning / tweaking to do. Eau Rouge was sketchy and Blanchimont was uncontrollable

 

[Yorkie_065]

I am probably going to be in for this!

 

[GioVtec]

I'm in for this one.

Hope I can make my debut this time.. xD

Hey guys just to give an update. They have now changed from Morning to Afternoon for the race. They also changed from 30min to 1 hour for the warmup. I will keep revising the post with any new changes that comes out.

Doing some quick initial testing with the merc and the R8....currently preferring the R8. It feels better to drive around the circuit, pace is very similar at the moment but possibly in the mercs favour. The Audi though I can feel like I can throw around a little more, and feels more planted through eau rouge.
