Gutted for you John

Noooooo john.Gutted to here,guessing the crank issue also?

You got two good engines at your place a good standard mapped one will go well?

yep.The crank was always suspect from day 1,but we both agreed that its not worth pushing it in case it causes other issues.
The workshops booked solid for nearly 13 weeks now,and this will take 3 days to do.
Time which i don't have and i have worked up to 15 hour days for nearly 4 months now.
So I'm not prepared to sacrifice anymore home time for this car.
Sorry chaps.

So be it mate,sorry to here it ended this way.

Always next year...

Good luck with,all the time in the world to make her perfect

Oh my god... 25 days until we're on the track! Where has the time gone?! Really starting to look forward to this.

Ferry = booked

I'll get the camp site booked (Eau Rouge) in the next couple of days!

Are there any track tickets going spare?

Cheers,

Nick

Have you spoken to Petep? He is the fellow who has booked ALL the FCCUK track time. I know that there have been a couple of folks who have had to back out recently so he may have some spares

I should be there now,
so if any track time over the weekend going spare i will be up for it.

You will be able to buy it from the secretariat on site over the weekend.

The Scuderia sessions are the unlimited ones.

I am pleased to note that Darlo_Nick will be joining us in the Coupe only sessions at Spa.

There is still 1 spare ticket for the weekend and coupe track time available.

How much extra for a sunday tracktime?

PER, why not take the ticket Pete has left?

Bob

I'm only there sunday..

Per, you already have half an hour coupe only track time on Sunday with the ticket you got from the club.

If you want to join in the 1 hour Scuderia sesions on Sunday, it is too late to do it through the club, so you will have to sort it out directly with the SpaItalia secretariat on track. It will cost you 140€ per session.

Hi petep, i'm interested in the ticket, with that 100 euro's, can i take a passenger with me?

How can i get the ticket, do you send it to me or can we meet on friday / saturday morning somewhere around francorchamps?

Yes, you can take a passenger, it covers the car,driver and passenger for the weekend including track time.

I can send you the ticket or pass it to you at the hotel in Spa on Friday evening, the choice is yours.
Fill in the form http://www.fiatcoupeclub.org/documents/SpaiItalia_2010_Booking_Form.doc send the club bank 100€ and the ticket is yours.

How come it costs everyone in europe 100euro but it costs us pounds-that works out about £15 difference? Is it just exchange rates and stuff?

Well it all depends on when the tickets were purchased. The £ - Euro rate has been all over the place this year, at times almost down to a 1:1 ratio

When we initially planned SPA 2010 exchange rates were good but were falling fast, so a safety net was built in. Rest assured Matt, the club is not looking to make money off the UK participants

Thanks bob. I was not trying to insinuate any wrong doing, just curious.

not long to go now - looking forward to this big time. Am booked in at Motormech to get my brakes up to spec.

Booking form send Petep.

Really looking forward on my first tracktime with the coupé

I.can.not.wait!

Me and my friend are planning on driving to the nurburgring on the Monday if anyone fancies it!?

22 days from today i expect to be recovering from one hangover and looking forwards to the next one

Thanks Sem, form received.

That is the last club ticket taken unless anyone else has to drop out.

lucky me

Hopefull i have the same amount of luck during the track sessions, allthough i won't go all the way

absolutely, well put Steve

Agreed

Too right can't wait first pints on Steve isn't it? :-)

It'll have to be a major pub crawl then, so that every pint is a first pint (in each pub)
