Would this be because the old customary June dates are now unobtainable for some reason?

I have just spoken to the MD of the organisers.

Discussions with the circuit are still ongoing, but it looks as though it will be in June next year. thumb

When I have the dates I will post them up, we should know fairly soon.

Me too, but not the 8/9th or 15/16th as I definitely won't be able to do the 8/9th and 15/16th will be a push.

Someone tell them it has to be 1/2nd, 22/23rd or 29th/30th laugh

Doing that Ferrari was the highlight of the weekend for me. But it also upset me as my car will never be as quick as yours.

Another mahoosive thumbs up for a June date.

If you have a coop, take it to Spa. The ultimate experience for both car and drivist! You'll never have the opportunity to have so much track time on one of the worlds best circuits for so little cost. Participation in this event has been my personal favourite thing about being involved with fccuk, its a once in a lifetime experience on an annual basis. You can drive the circuit at your own pace, my other half did 4 laps last year touring round. Would heartily recommend to all.

Of course, none of this would be possible without the efforts of the volunteers running the clubs efforts to make it so accessible and effortless for us members (who shall rename nameless for now but will doubtless be rewarded with gratuitous messages after the event!).

Can't wait!

The perfect weather to 'camp' in the campsite next to the circuit :Marco:

It is funny to remember how difficult it was trying to convince UK peeps to get themselves along to this event. It used to be just Peter, attending with the French Coupé club, then a small number of us joined him and kept trying to get more folks involved. Today it is one of the highlights of the FCCUK year.

As for June, great news but remember this is SPA. My first Coupé Spa attendance was in June. The Friday was a scorcher, Saturday it was raining and blooming FREEZING shocked and sunday was one of the hottest days of the year rolleyes Every year we went there was rain at Spa. I have friends just 40 miles or so up the road in South Holland. They regularly saw how they had sunshine all weekend whilst we have had the brollies out evil

June is looking good for us. The Coupé may arrive at Spa having just spent a few weeks and a few thousand miles going to Norway and back (That is the current plan! anyway)

The freezing cold and wet year was the reason for the "purple" stories that arose - i was told how everybody had been scorched in previous years so only took 1 item of warm clothing (purple jumper) ......the rest is history blush
