Cool, I was just thinking about giving this thread a bump too ![Thumbs up (y) (y)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
But that's not what this thread is aboutcinqmeister said:I haven't read the whole thread so I don't know If it's been mentioned - but barring Silverstone the next-closest is Spa in Belgium - plus it's 9 times out of 10 a great race!
I reckon you can get there in about 2-3 from Calais easy - plus there's plenty of accommodation, cheap apparently if you nip across the border into Holland/Germany...
The tickets for the race aren't as expensive as Monaco either!

It's no problem mate, it's just that the subject of going to a different GP has come up in the thread before, and like Alex says this about realising a dream, and that's what we want to stick to in this threadcinqmeister said:Sorry, I haven't had the time to read the whole thing - is the idea not to meet up at a Grand Prix somewhere???
