As I type this, the boys are all at the circuit getting signed in on the 2011 TwinSpark Racing Spa track day. Leonard has come with the Hulk, so we should have some fun around Spa with that this morning. I’ve just waved Paul and Chris off from the hotel:

Arrangements are coming together nicely for the 2011 TwinSpark Racing track day at Spa Francorchamps on October 10th.

Where are you, NL? Share the information in your networks and let’s get more cars on track! To book for this event, which costs £249 per driver for the day, simply email john@twinsparkracing.com and I will send you a code which you can use to book via Gold Track’s website.
