Spa Summer Classic

Post by jochem kentgens1 »

Anyone going to Spa next weekend (14-17 June)?

Various race groups for App K historic +4's (FIA NKHTGT); all kinds of 4/4 sport, early +8 etc (Pieter's Legendary Circuit Series) and quick +8's in Belgian Historic Cup.

I will be there with the +4. Would be nice to meet more Morgan racers.

Always a fantastic race weekend at Spa.

Best, Jochem

Hi Jochem,

Sadly I won't be at Spa with the red car next weekend - I will be racing at MG Live with Ecurie GTS on the GP circuit at Silverstone.

Spa is a wonderful circuit and hope to be racing on it in September at the 6 Hour meeting.

Hope to see you at Silverstone in August for the Bentley Drivers Club meeting.

The regs have just come out. Would you like me to email them to you?

Kind regards

Mark

Will have to bring enough of those beers.... :lol:

New engine did not do what it was expected to.... blew three (!) head gaskets during the weekend.... will have to rework that head to get rid of an imperfection near the 4th chamber....or maybe we are just trying to run with to much compression...

Will test before coming over to the UK.

Dont know if the below link works.

Yes it does work - if you go back into the full gallery.

Good picture of you Jochem and lots of nice cars competing in the race.

Sorry to hear of your problems but sounds as if you know why.

Get it fixed before August 10th!

See you then.

Cheers

Mark
