We have similar problems in the UK with people trying to silence church bells!

... and Spa's back!

The license is no longer suspended, though there are more stringend environmental regulations included. Let's just hope common sense prevails and the circuit doesn't face court every other month.

Hello to you all, by the way. I've been a silent enjoyer of this site for a while, but I never post as I'm not an engineer by any means. I just figured that good news is sometimes easily overlooked, so I had to bring the item here.

People live near there? Isn't the main complaint about Spa that it's in the middle of nowhere? We need to investigate the signatures on this complaint, I believe half of them to be deceased or cattle. Someone should really make up a petition to get it back, I'm sure there's many many more people that want a race there than don't.
Well, if anyone that lives there didn't know that they were moving into a race track, I would have to label them stupid.

I wonder what the local hotels, resturants, and shops have to say about this loss to their tourism trade? Maybe there will be some lynchings in the Ardennes soon?

Mufflers on F1 cars? Could this be a ruse to equalize horsepower through exhaust restriction!>??!?!?
