lol, not that i'm aware. talk about 4 seasons in one day - it was lovely & sunny as we pulled of the ferry into Calais, torrential rain in Belgium where your coil packed up for the first time, then sleet & snow 10kms from the track. good times though!

 Re: Spa 2009
if the weather's fine it's gotta be a camp, only because it was so hideous in 2007 that we chickened out & went for the warm/easy option. If the weather's good then the atmosphere & fun n' games will be brilliant!

 Re: Spa 2009
just visited the 2009 website, here's a translation: Quote: 60 years ago, in 1948, the "POS" allies "2CV" was presented at the Salon de l'Auto de Paris. Il ya 20 ans, en 1988, le dernière 2CV sortait de l'usine de Levallois. Il y 23 ans, en 1985, étaient organisées les premières " 24 heures 2CV " sur le circuit de Spa-Francorchamps. 20 years ago, in 1988, the last 2CV went out of the factory of Levallois. There are 23 years old, in 1985, was organized the first "24 hours 2CV" on the circuit of Spa-Francorchamps.
Aujourd'hui, il ya encore et toujours des milliers de " deuchistes " pratiquants. Today, there are still thousands of "deuchistes" practitioners. Des récréants et des compétiteurs. Rewritten and the competitors.
Bientôt, le week-end du 17 et 18 octobre prochain, c'est tout ce petit monde qui se rassemblera sur le site du plus beau circuit du monde, à l'occasion de la 25ième édition de l'épreuve reine de la saison. Soon, the weekend of 17 and 18 October, that's all that little world will gather at the site of the most beautiful circuit in the world, on the occasion of the 25th edition of the race queen of the season.
Depuis 2007, depuis que le 2CVRT a repris l'organisation de l'épreuve, un " bonus " de 24 minutes de course a été ajouté. Une soixantaine de bolides sont attendus au départ ! Since 2007, since the 2CVRT took over the organization of the event, a "bonus" of 24 minutes of racing was added. Sixty cars are expected to start! Et comme lors des éditions précédentes, il y aura du spectacle sur la piste et dans les stands. And as in previous editions, there will be entertainment on the track and in the stands.
Mais aussi dans les paddocks. But also in the paddocks. De l'animation en tous genres et une bourse d'échange/vente de pièces 2CV avec une " traditionnelle " concentre de fans de 2CV. The animation of all kinds and a scholarship exchange / sale of 2CV parts with a "traditional" concentrates 2CV fans. Tout le week-end ! All weekend! and then, regarding the camp: Quote: The most beautiful circuit in the world is preparing to welcome your beautiful Deucher in the atmosphere 24h24 2cv Spa-Francorchamps. Une équipe de jeunes gens quadrilingues sera là pour vous recevoir et vous donner les renseignements nécessaires pour passer un merveilleux meeting.

On Saturday evening, an evening with DJ in the tent for the reception and Sunday morning you can order breakfast with a fresh hot cup of coffee. MAIS, il ya surtout le "TOUR DU CIRCUIT" sommet de ce meeting qui forme un cortège de Deuches d'origine mais aussi des Deuches superbement décorées et aussi des Deuches avec des formes travaillées. But there is primarily the "TOUR OF THE CIRCUIT" this summit meeting, which form a procession of Deucher of origin but also beautifully decorated and Deucher also Deucher worked with forms.
Nous vous proposons de vous rassembler après ce tour, sur le parking " shopping " derrière la tribune d'où vous pourrez voir les deuches de course passer leur premier Raidillon qu'ils devront pour les premiers effectuer 400 fois avant de passer le drapeau à damiers le dimanche à 16h24. We suggest you get together after this tour, in the parking lot shopping behind the podium where you can see the race Deucher spend their first Raidillon they will perform for the first 400 times before taking the checkered flag Sunday at 16h24. taken from: http://www.2cvracingteams.be/
