Default A video I made...

Here is a video i made after heading to Spa earlier this year for a two day RMA track event. The car now has black wheels, carbon mirrors and a Sharkwerks bypass as well as a new reg number.

I hope you enjoy it:

Kudos, magnificent video.
As the track scenes are limited, I honestly must admit that the private road and your top speed test is probably your best moment (lol)

Thanks for posting the video. As much as I want to drive the 'Ring, I think that I want to drive at Spa even more. Kyle

I would love to drive a F1 track! They look so manicured and nice!

What was the deal with the head light out of the car in the beginning of the video to change the beams???

Cool vid.
The track and other cars looks impressive.
Did you have to dismantle your car to use the Euro Tunnel? Damn, that's tough.
Nice finish by the way.
Thanks for the show.

The headlight change is required because we drive on the left in the UK so when we go to Europe, where they drive on the right, the angle of our headlights dazzles oncoming traffic. You can buy stick on patches to stop this but some cars have the ability to change the beam direction. On a 993 you just pop the headlight out and flick a switch, on the 997 you have to get the headlight out using special tool formt eh toolkit, unscrew the 3 screws on the back of it and get inside to find the switch.

Great video. Spa to me is like the Mecca of Race Tracks!! It is definately on my list of tracks to visit.

Loved the Rain footage. Sitting on that corner reminds me of Hamilton spinng their in F1 and coming back to take the victory. Loved seeing all the cars at the track, quite a diverse selection.

Thanks for sharing the video.
Cheers!
Rhonda

Very cool vid. I like how you use R888s in the rainy and cold weather. Eau Rouge must be scary to drive thru.
