My favorite Porsche event of every year

Turbo Cab













I think RS's of every vintage were the cars to have today






And yes a CGT race car


All for now...more to come tomorrow

I don't know what looks like more fun, driving that track or just seeing all those amazing cars. I'm jealous!

Lee, yeah it's probable that my cam is slightly better. By the way I need to burn the pics for you yet.

OllieW, which RS is yours the left or right one? Did you give any passenger laps?

Spa is definitely one of my favorite tracks because it hasn't lost that special touch that the Nueburgring is loosing with all the crazy people that flock to it in recent years. Spa is still that quiet track tucked away in the Ardennes with smooth rolling terrain and a beautiful back drop.

Mine is the one on the right, reg no OW156... It's the only RHD RS I saw at Spa all weekend and one of only a handful in the world. Was fantastic to sit inches from the pit wall blasting down into Eau Rouge at over 130mph, sound was glorious.

I gave a load of passenger laps on the Saturday that we were there, mainly to the contingency that came out with us from the UK.

Next year look out for me and you are more than welcome to join me in for a few laps of fun.

Cheers
