Best Le Mans Spotted

DID any one else get stuffed by the yellow mark one escort !!!!

425 break horsepower ( claimed ) all i know is at 130 plus he pushed us clean out of the way

However the best car must have been the B reg robin reliant with the MAD overtaking moves on the N138 and he still wouldnt smile when we all pulled over and cheered him past !!!

GREAT LE MANS AGAIN

[4lf4-155]

I had the pleasure of following a Black V8 Vantage round the back of the grandstands whilst on a midi moto!

sitting 2 foot away from the exhaust breathing in the fumes was sweeeeet!

I can't believe no one's mentioned the Dodge Charger of Joy - the constant non-stop attention that thing got was genuinely amazing.



Did no one see it smoking out Burnout Alley?

Did anyone see the bright green Plymouth Barracuda? Jeez, the way that thing launched, it must have been the fastest thing there, including the supercars. It slowed alongside us for a photo session, then launched, it jumped a clear foot in the air and took off like it had been hit with a wrecking ball from behind. The USS Enterprise engaging warp drive pales in comparison.

I guess you were impressed then BG!

The Barracuda and Charger were awesome cars, also saw a pristine 67 Mustang on the way home (FAV***C) which looked divine.
The black classic American pick up type vehicle that was at Arnage on Friday looked awesome as well!

Havent got a pic but in the top paddock past whhere all the tyre trucks were parked were some old racers including a Jaguar D type which won Le Mans in 1955.

Probably the most expensive car spotted all weekend.

[anniesdad]

Spotted all the usual suspects including the 40's the F1, Murci's, Gallardo's, 'Egg, Edonis, 360's, 550's but sadly no F430!

Also spotted a white fixed roof LMP car going through the village on Sunday which ultimately parked up on the red carpet area near to the GT4 stage. I've got a snap of it at home.

[Shelbysteve]

I spotted 3 Awsome Shelby Mustangs Cruising about! and saw them on the start finish line, lined up after the race.

[Out Run]

Two guys in a knackered, decaled Fiat Panda 4x4 with inflatable shark on roof and Team Penetrators adorning the windscreen.

We had fun in the sportscars, but respect to the lads who did it on a budget with style.

(Hope you made it -last spotted with water going into radiator)

[neilsie]

a few Deloreans were parked near us in Beasjour.

[Mustang Baz]

Could have sworn I spotted a white Farboud on a flatbed heading back to Blightly. In addition..

- Ferrari 430 (at the go kart track)
- Pagani Zonda - UK registration (shown in pics earlier in this thread). Appeared to be driven away from one of the stands by Horatio Pagani himself...
- Ascari KZ1


Fantastic spotting all the way down, there and back. My first Le Mans and loved every minute of it!

Spotted a Zonda F in front of me at the toll when leaving Le Mans on Sunday. Pity he never floored it off the line though.

Good spotted. That's the one and only Zonda F. It is a modified C12S 7.3, which had in itself been developed from the original C12. This car has done, IIRC, over 200,000 kms as Pagani's development vehicle. It was parked up at Le Mans on the red carpet, near the GT4 stand.

Late on sunday after the race, leaving the village:

a Farbound GT.

Guy had to open the doors to see around the corner when driving forwards, then decided to drive on the left of the road. After the approaching car (fortunantly) stopped in time, he told the other car to reverse so he could continue.

Very strangem but there you go...
