I have placed posts on the Dutch and German forum to try and generate a bit more interest.

It looks like John Snijders won't be going this year, he is saying that it is too expensive for traders frown

Fellas I've been to Spa many times for the GP and am damn envious......The main ticket entrance for the race brings you in behind the run down to Eau Rouge.....If anyones not been before I defy you not to be staggered by how steep Eau Rouge actually is in the flesh. You just don't appreciate it on the Tele.... Watch that left/right/left flick and then foot to the floor for an age thumb thumb ...do us proud!

My car is that low that a trolley jack doesn't fit underneath until i've jacked it up a few inches with the standard jack, so no, i'm not taking one. However, i have thrown my axle stands in just in case. I've taken the spare out (as i'll have 4 track wheels). I also have a brake bleeding kit, full spanner set, socket sets, screw drivers etc etc. I've bunged in some nuts and bolts and jubilee clips too just in case.

Lid is packed too, i also have the fire extinguisher screwed in position, first aid kit, spare bulb kit, warning triangle.I'll need full boost to get the car moving there is so much stuff in it!

Anyone got any breakdown cover sorted? Where's cheap?

I'm impressed with all your preparation - i'm going to extend my RAC cover for Europe for the 3 days, will cost £26

I have some home-made ramps so might take these and a trolley jack I think

No problem Mike that's the joy of bringing the car on the trailer i suppose, you can bring all the crap you like without any worries. I'd still prefer to drive the car but when you get a run in it you'll realise that it wouldn't be nice on the public roads.
