Anyone going to Le Mans??

[m3ed]

Anyone from the SW making the journey?
I know it`s early but only 6 month`s to go!

[negative creep]

I had a dream about this very thing last night....................




anyway, I'd like to, but probably too expensive. How much are tickets?

[Bomber Denton]

Oh yes!

About 10 cars at the moment making the pilgrimage in our group from the area.

[sprintmp]

Perhaps we'll meet up this year Corin??

Entry is about 60 Euros for 4 days, slightly better value than F1 in other words!

[crugbun]

I'll be going as ever, hopefully with a few Alpine Renault 'gangmembers'.

Yep 60 euros is a steal... after all I paid £22... say 30Euros to go and see Plymouth and Southamptoon kick a football around in the rain for 2 hours.... What crap that was!

No, no, no.....you have to go this year so that you can go to the Classic next year. If you don't get the rotation life won't be worth living

I cant make it this year, I am gutted though-last year was quality apart from missing the ferry over, not taking a map, putting the tent up in a thunder storm, running out of cooking gas on the first day-an mot being able to find a replacement),
sunburn & the ferry ride home. Needless to say unforgetable & an absolute blast, wish I could do it this year but im getting married on the 23rd so cant risk it

heres some of the pics I took

Yes, but that includes about 300 quids worth of beer!

Plan on doing it for the first time this year, providing I'm not sitting exams(the joys of being a student) - and I've saved enough beer tokens for a half decent car (half decent means a XJ12 that will get me there and back on classic insurance/as a named driver or a Mini - a proper one that is, not the new one)- that or buy an old volvo and end up being the van (tank is probably more accurate) driver while everyone else takes something half-decent.

Going in my usual convoy F355, 2 x 911's, very quick chipped Focus RS and my Ginetta G33. Looks like Speedcat sailing from Portsmouth to Caen on Friday. Its now only 5 months away!

[Bomber Denton]

Spare seat in the Mexico if anyone gets stuck getting down there.

[neilrallying]

We at Adrenaline Motorsport are also planning the trip with our owners club, would be great if we could hook up our convoy with some SW Pheaders.
We will have a few Murtaya's (including our demo car), Scoobys and a few other nice toys that have already confirmed.
