Wow what a spectacle !! Stunning cars and every one seems perfect, the right amount of mods, the right amount of aerodynamics.

What amazes me most is that it doesnt actually look that busy with spectators compared to the UK and the Ring things.

Fantastic pics though and I can understand why you were all dribbling whilst looking at those cars.

Now will Stuart keep the Cupra or has he got ideas for a new motor ;)

After 2 days I have finally finished reading this report:thumbs:

Looks and sounds like you all had a perfect weekend. The pictures say it all from the tranquillity of the camp site, (beers in the river):), the presentation and variety of cars and i can only imagine the sounds...(waiting for vids). All wrapped up in a road trip.

This is now something on my to do list.......fantastic, simply fantastic.

Thanks for the input PhatBob :D
I should let everyone know that without Rob's superb translation skills, we would have been stuffed. He could get by in French, German and a little bit of Belgium. The only issue was that his little bit of each language was usually used in the same sentence leading to some very confused people :) The best of it was when he had ordered one drink in French and the next in German, only for the barman to confirm what he'd ordered in perfect English! Icing on the cake was when Rob asked the owner of the campsite whether he preferred French or German and Marc replied along the lines of 'We have our own language, why not use that!' :D 10/10 for effort though.

Joking aside, Rob done a sterling job of ferrying my arse to Lux and back, and also ran the whole group around on practice and race day. Thanks buddy :thumbs: Did you bring that poking stick mate?
