SPA World Record Event
16-17-18 May 2003
"NEAFP No. DMSB 000/2003"
In 2001 We set motorracing history when we held a race with 56 Spridgets. We had drivers from, the UK, France, Germany, Holland, Sweden & Italy.
We are attempting to beat our own record in 2003.
The format will be different from previous years successes. So all neccessary details are listed below.
Race details
The 2003 event consists of one 20min. qualifying session on the Friday and three 25-30min. races on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning.
Total track time is 100 min's on the best F1 Grand Prix circuit in the world.
Cars will line up according to qualifying times. Independent from your own skills and speed, race length will be guaranteed to be 25-30 min's for each driver.
FISC insists on a fair and gentlemanlike driving conduct.
All cars will be checked on contact damage after each qualifying & race.
Entries
Guest cars can come and race as they are. For this event 1500 Midget models are accepted. Just about the only restrictions are that your Spridget must be a competition car & run on road tyres (max. 185). Basic safety regulations must be respected! You must have a valid National race licence , helmet & Nomex race suit.
We can accept up to 62 cars to take the green light for the race. Entries are accepted on a first come, first served basis.
1) Should this be your first ever FISC event, then you are invited absolutely FREE OF CHARGE. This is an ideal introduction to the FISC Euro Tour Trophy. Ferry crossings are available at a discounted price or you are free to make your own travel arrangements. To qualify for a FREE Race Weekend, you must be new to FISC.
To make this clear here, if you drove in Spa, as a HALFORDS/FADS driver, YOU STILL QUALIFY FOR A FREE RACE. If you are in any doubt please contact your local country representative (via the CONTACT US page ).
2) Have you raced with FISC before? Then you can enter this event as a "Guest Driver".
Again ferry crossings are available at a discounted price or you are free to make your own travel arrangements.
3) FISC Euro Tour Trophy drivers are automatically entered. There is no extra cost for this event.
Prizes & Memorabilia
- EVERY driver (without exception) will get a Commemorative Trophy.
- Limited Edition Trophies are available for exceptional drivers & circumstances.
- The first three from each race will be awarded cups.
- The first six FISC drivers will be awarded Weekend Trophies as usual.
Safety-Scrutineering / Licence Check
All checks and administration will be carried out in the FISC paddock area, from Thursday evening starting at 20:00 until late in the evening.
Catering & Hospitality
Entry to the Spridget Café, starting on Friday morning 16 May through to Sunday 18th May, is included in the event free of charge. ALL meals and drinks are included. Catering includes English & Continental Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner & Drinks (coffee, tea, soft drinks, beer, red & white wine) for 4 people. Tickets are available for extra team-members at club prices.
I don't really need to explain how good FISC Catering & Hospitality is, it is plastered all over this site. But if you weren't there last year....... Just imagine a comfortable dry dining area, good food ( bloody excellent actually !) and upto 100 drivers & guests all chatting, drinking & generally having a good time !
Ferry crossings
For drivers based in the UK, Ferry Crossings using the P&O Stena Line connection Dover <-> Calais are available. Our price includes your tow vehicle or motor home plus racecar and trailer and 4 people.
Times & dates of crossing are un-restricted, so you can take a few days holiday & make a short holiday of the event.
This cost is extra to your entry fee, but I doubt if you will find a cheaper way of getting across the channel.
You are however, free to make your own travel arrangements, should you so choose.
Again FISC Euro Tour drivers - This is already included in your entry fee.
Please book your Ferry before April 28th.
Tip:
If you are not sure at what time you will be travelling, just fill out a time between 12.00 and 24.00 hours. This will enable you to take any boat, whether in the morning, afternoon or evening without running the risk of any delays.
