Jay762 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Hi all, only just found out about this missed it this year but included the link and some footage. http://www.subarutrackday.com/ This is something I would be interested in as I have always loved watching Spa races on the TV - if you also fancy it let me know and if enough interest is generated we could look at a S.O.C. presence get a pit garage etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 That look's £$&king! ace :D If I win the lotto tonight I'm getting me an f1 style lorry to go next year :D And I agree Spa is one of my fav tracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 Ill put you down as an equally long shot as myself then ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Haha Dam right. Even if it's just to update my Facebook status that I'm there :D And no I didn't win the lotto tonight. Its holding out on me, its wanting me to have more so I can have 6 Subaru's in the bigger garage I would have to build :D But on the safe side that I'm a non millionaire next year, I will be looking into travel cost's from Hull as it is closer for me to cross. Just in case anyone else is going :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Just looked on google maps. Its quicker for me to drive to Dover so it says. I feel a Top gear special coming on here :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 logistically - for a UK party that would be the best start then arrange to meet any mainland chums on the way or at the final hotel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I will have a look see if I can get from Hull to either Brugge or Antwerpen cheaper and less miles 1st Have to arrange places to meet up Brugge is on the way almost and Antwerpen I would have to go south and meet up North of Brussels. Failing that be in a bar feeling sorry for myself that I'm lost lol :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay762 Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 I have had a response from the organisers - they find out and confirm the date in Sept - Oct after the F1 I have asked to be added to a mailing list if they have one and have also said I will follow up closer to the time. They also said it would be great if we organised something and would like to see us there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Cool sounds good to me. Could they not give us free VIP tickets for the F1 And give us a roof food and drink so we don't have to come back until after the day :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Well I might have got my father in law to tag along with the Blobeye :) Where about would you being docking from Dover have you had a look ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted April 1, 2013 Author Share Posted April 1, 2013 Right so the latest from the team is they are going for Easter Bank holiday monday 2014 and will let us know if / when it is confirmed. Doing the Google maps thing and speaking to a chap who attended a VW bash at the same place I would be going via the channel tunnel to Calais then cutting into Belgium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 once its confirmed we need to get a proper thread set up with booking forms, I can then advertise this properly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I know that feeling. In 2010 I was all set for a winter weekend at the Nurburgring and one of my turbos (twin-turbo remember) failed 3 days before we were due to leave. I was forced to take my everyday drive which was a BMW 330ci at the time. It was more than up to the job, but it didn't quite fit in with a Subaru meet! Mind you, could be worse... A friend of mine did Spa a few years ago and had a massive fire on track which gutted his car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
