It's nearly time for 2008's trip...what can I say, I've been very busy wink

It's odd, but I actually prefer all my 'incidental' shots from walking around the circuit than any of the 'action' shots. Need to spend more time perfecting long shutter speed (1/60) panning this year!

Collections are here:

And a few of my faves:















Enjoy. Hopefully some of these will get the mouths watering for this year (let's hope for a drier weekend this time!!!)

Let's be honest, it can't be any wetter!! I was drenched within a minute of arriving on the campsite last year.

Hi Ed. Are you the guy in the M5 who camped next to us in Musee? I was with the guys with the Tuscan and 350Z. If so I hope our spade served you well on Sunday! hehe Nice pictures by the way. smile

Hello mate! Yes that would be me! Was good to hang out with you guys, do you know if that same spot is available this year? Are you planning on heading out again this year?

I still lol sometimes about (accidentally!) spraying that guys' crossfire with mud when I 'parked' the car... biggrin

I don't think interior musee is available this year. I don't think it was going to be available for 2007 but enough people kicked up a fuss about it to get them to open it for one more year. It's a shame because I think we were in just about the best spot for both car access to the road and track access. I think the best available with TL this year is Hoax Annex and I think those are selling like hot cakes (only released a couple of days ago I think).

We won't be going this year I don't think. Might return in 2009 though. We're planning on doing a trip through the alps this year instead.

They have a dedicated spot 'next door' apparently in terte rouge. Still undecided.

I get my alps trip every summer when I do my 10 day mountainbike trip biggrin

Great pic's Ed - It really gives a feel of 2007 Le Mans

I know what you guys mean - 2008 hits, then i check out the ferries and cheap returns are already being booked out - trying to sort out with mates which cars/whose getting a new car shall we take and its only 6 months till i get on the ferry.

Sweet
