Devised for Anne Scobie's 60th birthday and Jette Rosen's 40th birthday; both SCD teachers in Brussels. These birthdays were celebrated during a week-end of dancing in Spa, hometown of the Francorchamps motor-racing circuit, on 31 March to 2 April 2017. The dance describes the motor races: - bars 1-8 represent the warming up of the engines; - bars 9-24 represent the actual race; - bars 25-32 represent the after-race party.
Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (8). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
