The car show wasn't today, but this screenshot is. My work had a car show recently and took photos of entrants as they arrived and shared them in a great way to get some perspective on the sizes of different vehicles:

Not my car since it is still on the ferry from Dover - but welcome to Spa!

Like so many I’ve only ever seen the track via TV or racing photos. I had no idea that it was built up as high as it is along the “new” start/finish, pit lane area.

Thank you for letting us mere mortals live vicariously thru your adventures.

It’s even more stunning setting when I am near the top of the circuit and can look across the valley to see the pits a very very long distance away.

The new pedestrian bridge built to replace the former now destroyed tunnel under Eau Rouge provides for a new vantage point.

But at least at the pits you can rehydrate with essential liquids.

The proud NJ owner of a new Caterham 420 Cup is popping his Spa cherry tomorrow in a rental Caterham with his son.  I am proud to yet again facilitate the destruction of someone else’s 401(k)!   
 

By the way, did people find the French and Dutch track day reports in the articles section put there a month back?

Errands are more fun in a Seven. I had to run up to New Preston to make sure the Airbnb was all set for this weekends guests, and since the Seven gets nearly 3 times the gas milage of my F-250, it was a no brainer. The fact that it's an absolutely gorgeous fall day is just icing on the cake!

In hindsight this was ambitiously early - still quite wet on track.  Lots of opposite lock action and front end pushing.

Is that to make sure the track photographer has good lighting on your face? Vanity run amok
