Hi Jason, Burly Bob (Sagaris) and I (Chimaera) intend to return to Zolder this year, Bob will have his Sagaris with him this time instead of riding shotgun with me. Also as Neil (Sagaris) mentions above, there are a few other TVRCC Nessies that intend to go so we could have 4 or 5 cars from the Aberdeen area.
We certainly enjoyed last years event. The 3 trophies are still proudly displayed on the sideboard. Reckon Neil has a chance of the 'Furthest traveled' trophy as he is slightly further North than myself.
I got a tip off the other week on the 20th June date and have already looked into Ferry travel. Rosyth is limited due to the fact they only sail every second day and not at the weekend for the return also they have no cabins left just recliner seats. So it's looking more likely that we will be sailing from Newcastle, quite a bit cheaper too (Before anyone mentions it, I know, Grippy Aberdonians).
Keep us posted on info from the Dutch and Belgian clubs, assume the bboking form will be issued soon or in the next copy of Sprint.
Regards
Baz

Quick question - is there a specific type of crash helmet required for Nurburing and Zolder. Does it need to be motorsport specific?
Fire extinguisher - is this mandatory? Where is the best place to fit in a Sag?
Headlights - do you sticker them up to adjust beam for driving on left?
Thanks - Neil
