The sustainability of our history must be built!

The ASBL SPA HISTORIC RACING TEAM was born on 21 December 1995, 3 members are the basis of the restoration of this ASBL, Georges JANSSEN, Eric MARNETTE, and Olivier LOFFET.

By taking over the activities of this company, the 3 members reviewed them, leaving aside the competition, and by developing the history and conservation of the automobile heritage, with a particular focus on the Liège automobile industry very active at the time, and this, through organizations, museum visits, and especially the publication of a book on this beautiful adventure: the automobile.
