We called in at circuit Reims-Gueux on the return leg to Zeebrugge, this place just stands in the middle of nowhere - deserted

Just short of 2k miles in just over 2 weeks, the cars coped with the heat and a few uneven roads pretty good, we had a few grounding issues and I broke my cycle wing bracket but other than that nothing major  :t-up:

A cracking pilgrimage of tracks there Paul, scene of so much motor racing history over the years.

Super stuff Paul, I had an idea you couldn't pass by without a sniff .

 

Reims was just 3 main roads they closed off for racing,  similar to Le Mans , some big slipstreaming battles there .

 

take a look at the top 4 finish times here 1965 Riems Grand Prix

Here is a time lapse vid around Monaco  :) we did not do the full F1 circuit as we were diverted out of town going up the hill towards casino square, we ended up coming back into town before loews hairpin and the tunnel  :d
