Geoff

No date rules in UK just so long as you state 'in green'.

For Spa need evidence that they have been serviced within last two years.

But pull cables need to be free & each year at the first meeting of the season a proportion of
competitors always find that their extinguishers cables have seized solid when checked by the Scruts....

& then there are the fully charged batteries that wilt after three laps having suffered over the winter & the brake master cylinders which offer a surprisingly reassuring firm pedal... but no brakes....as they have seized as well
