I'm not sure in which one...Just a few days before 'Le Mans' this year I visited the factory of Spyker with my company. That day all the race cars, and the drivers..., were testing at Zolder.
So, we were ofcourse very disapointed that we couldn't go for a drive, and we looked so sad that the lady that gave us the tour asked if we would like a new appointment! Ofcourse we said YES. So...that should happen in August this year. The car shall be driven by one of the race-drivers of Spyker...so it will be a quick lap I think The drive will also be at the public-road, (near the factory...in Flevoland). I asked what the highest speed ever there was...and the guy grinned and said...well...eh...something around the 290 km/h ...and I was like: ehhhhh WOWWW :green: :green: :green: I'm really looking forward to it!!! (and will take pictures...and will post it here )

 

[Dj Dirk]

damn you lucky bastard
that's soo cool
and man, 290 on public road!!!
very fun for you and perhaps for one lucky cop :wink:


BTW on the list isn't the Zonda listed either, but last week during the testing, the Zonda was present and participating, so i hope that one will be on the grid

 

[ForzaRossa]

I'm even more lucky than I knew....My girlfriend just called me to say that she had won two tickets for the 24Hours of Spa!!! So...I'll be there!!
WIEHOE!!
