    Photos - Word Endurance Championship, Spa May 2013

    Trying to be a bit more original with birthday presents this year for my boy, we asked what he fancied doing....he said to go watch some Le Mans cars (...thats my boy ) so we decided to dust the S2 off and have a blat to Belgium, stay overnight in Aachen, mooch down to the Ring on the Sunday then hoon back to Calais.

    Fantastic weather, amazing circuit with such huge evelation changes and really showcase the speed of these LMP1 cars, the Audi through Eau Rouge, along the Kemmel straight and also through Pouhon and Blancimont were incredible...

    The car was flawless, even being sat on the Motorway towards Liege in stationary traffic for 90 mins it burbled away happily and was crackling along on a drink of 102 before leaving the Ring

    Definately be repeating the trip next year all being well.

    A few pics....
