In the afternoon we enjoyed an open pitlane - hence racecars and streetcars together on the track
It's unbelievable when U. Alzen flies by in his beast - I thought I was in reverse
Also impressive what the Radicals can do in the corners
While Mr. Alzen clocked laptimes in the low 2:3X, I was happy to achieve a 3:10 at best (lacking some horses, the right rubber.......and some driving skills)
In the last pic you can see how I'm chasing the mighty Alzen-Porsche on the Kemmel straight

Here's a nice inboard video from last Sunday showing some pretty fast laps (not me featuring though )

Achim, hate to burst your bubble, but I still can'see he pics!
The names look promising, and I look forward to seeing them, as I have been on SPa myself some years ago.
Did you upload the images and then attach them to the message?
Best wishes,

Porsche-Jeck:O.K. I'll give it a last try with the pics
O.K. to be honest, they lasted for some 150 NoS laps before But the 30 laps in Spa-Francorchamps last Sunday (nice season finish) gave them the rest...
Sorry for the lousy pic quality (phone-cam)

Now I get angry!!! Why do I see on all posts a message: posts removed by Eunice? Who is this Eunice? What´s happening here?

ALL PORSCHE ARE REAL PORSCHE!!!
Keep your shirt on Ed1 :D Eunice is the guy programming the whole new thing, has done a lot of good work lately!
Achim, really impressive pictures! Those tyres... :O Always find it inconvenient to see the rubber actually melts. Modern technology at it's best, keeping you on the track.
Thanks for the pictures, really make me remember that weekend when I was at Spa for the Porsche days a couple of years ago!

Eunice:
Hi, no need to get angry. I removed them upon request from porsche-jeck, because the image upload didn't work.
Thanks Eunice ! I thought the entire post could be removed without the "post removed by..." message. No prob though. Ed must have thought that I have posted some not so appropriate pics, hence removed by the Mods - LoL
@ Joost: Yes, those street tires easily melt at a GP track - but like mentioned before I can't complain - they survived for a full season :)

Porsche-Jeck:Show off!! Says the guy who is green with envy at where you are and what you are doing. Looks like another great day out. Hope you slapped around a couple of twin turbos while you were out there.
Porsche-Jeck:
I had a great time to play with a CaymanS for 4 consecutive laps One lap I overtook him when he made a mistake at Eau Rouge, next lap he caught me at the end of the long uphill Kemmel straight - big fun
Porsche-Jeck,
I found out that on dry tracks, Sport Cups are more appropriate, obviously in terms of grip, but also in terms of wear. Michelin Sport, when getting hot, just melt more than cups but the rubber blocks tend to bend, especially when recent, as they're thicker thus suffer more.
Moreover, as I guess you don't have a trailer to bring your car on track, Cups do hold correctly on the wet, as far as they're new and as you're watching the road to avoid puddles.
