Circuit de Laon Historique

[drive2tractors]

Anyone heading to this at the weekend? There are a few of us heading there from here in Kent, MGC, MGBGT, MGA, Stag, E-type, Midget, Morris Minor, Spitfire, Dyane and a MB AMG GT.
Give us a toot if you pass our convoy....

Best advice I can offer is to get up early for the events! There is always a queue both on the Rally day and the circuit day as there are so many cars! It is a fantastic event, this is our 3rd year and we will probably book again for next year. The whole town comes to a grinding halt for it, everyone is out on the streets cheering you on.
We are taking an abundance of Union Jacks (and an EU flag just in case the mood changes!) to try and brighten things up a bit.

PS worth having a look at all the photos on the website to get a flavour.

How did it go for you?

It was our first time, so we turned up early and eager to the various events, to do a lit of sitting around and waiting. Next time we'll know the score, but it was a bit frustrating. The road book was a bit confused on our return from Parfondeval too, which meant we got lost a couple of times. The run there was superb though.

Spitfire performed flawlessly and our only hitch was my BiL losing the keys to his Esprit.

It was very busy compared to other years. We took a Gallic approach and tried to be relaxed about timings etc. For us the only disappointing hanging around was on the circuit on Sunday so we pulled over and watched everyone else overheat!

Next year booked already!
