its great to see that there will be a good attendance at Le Mans. Do you guys know where I can get some decals made ahead of Le Mans as my little tribute to Allan Simonsen ?
It looks like new AM owner, roocarl, could be your man: www.roosigns.com

I could help if your near by I am based near Silverstone .i was there at Le Mans and witnessed the tragic accident :-(
I also do graphics for his team mate who runs an Aston simulator company near Banbury .
I did my old 911 for a trip to the Ring a few years ago as a German Police car and got arrested on the Track and banned for impersonating a Police officer ( no sense of humour those Germans ) ......

Hey guys, I am a veteran LM24 pilgrim (with my daughter), 11 years going down to LM in my 356a Speedster, last year (and this year) in my V8V. Would be great fun to meet up. Are you all driving down to LM through Eurotunnel or by ferry? Can we join you guys somewhere for the trip down?
I have booked Eurotunnel - Friday lunchtime, back Sunday night.

'My' group is on the Wednesday overnight ferry from Portsmouth.

I'll be returning, via Germany, Austria and Belgium on the 24th, changing to the Morgan and then heading back to Classic Le Mans. Ahhh, happy days smile

Thanks, sounds like quite a trip!! Jealous you're doing bothsmile I bet the Morgan is funsmile I always wanted to do Classic as well as 24, but struggle with the time away from the office to do both.
Anyone going down via the tunnel to LM?

Just received all the details on the "Grange Chateau" for their trip to Le Mans and it looks very nice. Can't wait to go now.

For anyone going down, the Waze app for smartphones seems to be the preferred option for spreading the word on Rozzer movements / activity / locations.

Installed it today and have to say, it's really rather good.

Good idea with the App yes
I'm sure they'll be plenty of space for all your techno-tat in the centre console, there is a gaping chasm where the gearstick should be smile.

Have a double socket one. Plus leads - one for TomTom, one for Smartphone with Waze App on it - both need power because of GPS. Not sure how you will charge your phone though whistle
