PCF Spa ...

- Start date
Yep! No 5 bearing went. Journals 1 4 and 5 failed crack test. New crank and bearings and off we go!! (Plus new nead studs and clutch.....)
Huge thanx to GT-One, Chertsey. Crank arrived Mon for them to finish Thurs night for run up Fri for me to collect Fri lunchtime..........
great days, fantastic time with the friends, and a good time to test the car against the best 964, 993 and others moderns machines...
Finish without problems in a my new project, our best time was 2:52,04 during sunday morning, but a friend with my car made 2:49,9 a little bit before... I need to be faster... (he is proffesional driver and winner of the GTS Spanish championship)
lots of GT3's, CUP, RSR and a lot of racing cars, very fast in straight, not in corners. In the negative report of the season are the education of some people that don't reduce the speed, overtake you and other things with yellow flags and sometime with red flags... a little bit of more education will be perfect. Normally these are owners of a new GT3 RS or similar cars... and probably these people were the crashed cars every race season that permit to the organisation stop our time on the track... bad thing...
Except that little thing, Spa were perfect.
Regards to Joseph, sure he is going to put a photo with his flag in my car and me... hundreds of good moments.
I need to re-gear my gearbox... too large... Propositions about the gears to put???
Thanks and we will be at 2012 season, hope so, if Zapatero prime minister let us some money to do our hobby...

Saw a GT2 in the race section driving like a lunatic. He almost killed a 97 Cup at bus stop by going straight on in a crazy overtake down the inside. I think he was then blacked flagged as he went off next time around into the pits.
I think with Sport being full(Sat & Sun) some of the idiots transferred to Race and they either can't drive or thought they were in Supercup!
I had no problems at all on Friday sessions. Very good driving in Race.
Good to see our Spanish friends at Spa

Trailored or driven from Normandy? Sister Cup to my one.
This Norman, I remembered their ancestors. [
]The mirrors do not look, besides being a slow driver.
It made me have to go to the shoulder, not to hit him in the Bus-Stop, because he went to the exgterior not see that I was coming .... [

the visit at Spa on saturday was nice (extremely nice weather and a bunch of cars from a German brand)
I met Phil RS. sorry, but I seem to have missed all the other from this forum.
thank you very much for the ride Phil.
it was a big surprise to me and I enjoyed it very much.
incredible machine you have. i'm still very much impressed on the level of grip your car has.
and now at least i know that i'm not the only Belgian guy on this forum
see you all next time (or at Clastres)

To reiterate Charles' post: great days at Spa. Fewer cars than in former years. Literally 2 hours of rain over the entire weekend, otherwise sunshine and boiling in the car. Have plenty of live footage, but from gigs of mp4 to Youtube will take a while...
As usual, a few people with more money than sense paid a high price: (a) someone from our Olav's crew stuffed his loaned car in the armco at the second lap of the first day... in the FUN category... (b) someone in RACING, again on the first session of the first day, but this time after about 30 min, destroyed a good section of the left armco at the exit of Pouhon, again not a pretty sight (and armco repairs took a while).
On shiny Michelin slicks, the 993 Cup was lapping consistently in 2:50 to 2:53.
A few quick highlights in pics:
