Itinerary is normally depart from Warwick Services on the M40 and follow en-masse to the chunnel. Each car has a radio so you can slag off everyone else's driving. Train over then a sprint to Spa for overnight stay. Following morning is a high-spirited run to the 'ring, then laps as arranged. Return back to Spa for another overnight stay, then following day is all day round the Spa circuit before the long drive back.
Takes three days out of your schedule, and costs a few hundred quid, but worth every penny. Hotel was very good too, and right in the heart of town. I did one of these trips last year, and almost managed to come back in one piece They normally take their own track car for some 'extra' fun, and full breakdown facilities (truck, trailer etc). They'll also have a couple of mechanics there for the duration to replace all those hot and melted engine bits if you need.
I can find out more if anyone wants, but the best bet is to call Crossroads if you're interested as numbers tend to swell rapidly!
