Anyone going this weekend? If you are, get lots of photos of the suspension and engine bay!

Yes, I will hop over the border and will be there on Saturday!
So reserve some money for bailing me out, when I get caught and locked up for spying

Don't worry, from what I read, Germany has more spies than they know what to do with!

Spa is in the "French speaking part" of Belgium, the organising party of this race festival is German. So me being Dutch is enough to make the confusion complete

You guys being close to the tropics age faster on account of the Earth's higher surface velocity! So, we're gonna be around for a few more seconds to see ya all croak, heheheh! Mats and Micke will croak last!

Well, I take comfort in the fact that MD also lives very close to the tropics, and unfortunately on the wrong side of the equator. So he will age the fastest but from the down side up. So his hairy legs will go white first
Maurizio, hope you get some good vids but especially engine and setup pics.
I think this year, the 156 GTA will no longer compete, it's gone on sale. Top contenders IMHO will probably be:
-Alexis Walter GTV6, this 3.0 12V revs to 8K+ ! It has 45mm short runners like the Beninca runners that I have for my 3.2 24v. And he is a very experienced Spa driver.
-Team Competizione's 75 TS Turbo (coming all the way from Denmark!!!) . Mende's a really good driver, but he doesn't seem to be too experienced at Spa. Car is FAST and is about the most modified 75 out there.
-The Dutch tube frame 75 3.2, power, grip and experience right here.
I'd really like to see the Supercharged 75 from Norway race at Spa, but he would have to trailer for 2 days to get there.
I don't even like trailering my car from SF to LA (unless desert scenery is your cup of tea), 8 hour of pure boredom. But I think I will do it one more time and race with Jes in his 360 CH when my 3.2 is done.
Welp, all I con do is wait for drivers to upload some vids.

No vids, photo`s is all there is in the pipeline

This one is still in the same hands but prepared to compete in the 24h of zolder somewhere in August this year.
And about the large list, I'm not completely sure.
See the results of last year

In the first video did the windshield crack while on the track or am I just seeing things?

Yeah it did crack . Must have been the body flex on old chip in screen . Be interesting t know what gearbox is in Mendes car . Compare the time in shifts to Alex's GTV .

Theres a nice vid from Serge's 155 EVO R (H&S Corse) where is is able to follow the leading transaxle car pack. Need to find that. Very cool because his. Car has ITB and sequential box.
There are lots of UK cars too, the white 156 has some sort of forced induction, the bianco group cars, and the black 916 GTV too.
Hopefully we can see the supercharged 75v6 from norway there next year
