Venturi 400GT

Probably my last trip to Spa Francorchamps this year, as the winter is coming. It was just a bit to cold to spent the whole day outside taking photos. The clouds didn’t help much to take nice pictures. I deleted loads of photos that I had taken in the morning, they were all to dark and had to much noise. Marc Duez test days as this track day is officially called attracts a very wide variety of cars. Ranging from humble Seats (which sponsors this event) to the serious track machinery like the Porsche GT3 RS. Some more exotic machinery also, my favorite being the Venturi 400GT pictured above. Not the first time I have seen it at Spa. A Ford GT is always a nice sight, and very rare in Belgium. Audi was presenting the R8 to a select bunch of people, several R8′s were driven around the track showing them what it can do.

Marc Duez trackday Spa Francorchamps

Track day organized bij Belgian ex racing driver Marc Duez on a very cloudy day at Spa. The event was sold out, and a very mixed field of cars attended. Ranging from a Smart to the Belcar Aston Martin, and a lot of Seats as Seat sponsors this event. Many Porsches were also present, they are still a populair choice for trackdays. Most exotic cars of the day were two identical Ferrari 430 spiders, always nice to see a Ferrari in action on the track.
