Spa Classic 2016

Post by Toxcity »

Hello all,

Last weekend I drove the Capri into Belgium to watch some classic racing at the Spa race track. Much to my surprise Ford Capris were the stars of the Heritage Touring Cup. Thought I'd share some photos from the event! Enjoy! :)

Looks like you had a good time Nic, there was some real serious metal there. Glad your Capri made it OK, hope it ran well.

Hi There,

You've made me an Envious man!!! :mrgreen: What a Cracking Trip that must have been. I would Love to do the Euro Run in the Cappa, but my Mate don't trust it. So we're doing one of our Euro trips at the end of June, but this will be on the Bike's... So ripping up some Tarmac then.

You certainly got to see some absolutely Amazing Models there too. I think I can safely say though, next to the Capri's, Of Course!!! The Next to Last photo, the Black Lamborghini Miura...... What a Car and I'm guessing looking at the company it was keeping there, it was an Actual Lambo and not some God Awful kit car!!!

Well, , all the very best and cheers for sharing the Pic's, all the best,

John...

Excellent photos - looks like a great trip. How did the Capri stand up to the miles?

I noticed the red Mk3 with the Essex lump - the cold air feed appears to come from the bulk head? Never seen that before.

I like that CC car, is it genuine? Is it period spec?
