live belgium gp

[Lee Martin]

live from belgium yay teddy bear here! weather sucks bin rainning all morning but stopped now and drying up quick! lee is a cry baby! lol will let you all know who is fast 2moz! over and out!

[MattADH]

yes the weather sucked in the morning but was the track finally dried out late on in the afternoon as people practiced up until 10pm!

Hopefully today will be dry and we will get a better idea of the conditions for the rest of the weekend. The track is frustrating to drive when the grip is low as the Astro has different levels of bite depending upon whether you are on the very inside of the corner or just a cars width off. In the dry, the flowing nature of the track gets you into a rhythm and when you have the right tyres, it is good fun.

C'mon TT. Who's Quick?
Is it a Brit or some Euro-Geezer?
2WD?

[Lee Martin]

The link is in Euro-Jabber but i think the result is "Leotard" from "Big E". Well done boys! Great result for the UK.

[tyreman]

so where is the link I can't seem to find any results

[CharlieF]

What is the 2WD result after leg three? The link has gone to hyper-choke at the possibility of a Brit 1/2/3.

8 brits in the top 20, more than the Belgian locals. Looks like it ends.....



Good results for Chris Long & Chris Evison also.
Imagine how prevalent the brits would be if all the top lads went, oh, will that'll be the euro's then....?

[CharlieF]

Result confirmed, 5 Brits in top ten Lee Martin (1), Ellis Stafford (2), Grant Williams (5 Great result for a Southend boy), Simon Reeves (7), Tony Truman (9 not bad for a teddy bear)!

[Chrislong]

Cheers guys.
Wow, what a track. Been very lucky with the weather, seeing as the rain stopped on Thursday and came back during presentations on Sunday.

Can only recommend it to anyone interested, its great, a really competitive event without it being 'busy', full of rules and pressure. Its also quite a cheap one to intend, even including tyres (its only as expensive as you make it for yourself).

Well done to all the brits, Lee did awesome, Matt White did great too with a leg win from 7th on the grid.

Thank you guys for a great week. See you next year.. if not before.
