Don't panic, I am not a Chav and I can prove it too! I mean, what kind of Chav would even be bothered to ask if their type will be tolerated, 'eh?
The reason I ask this question is that I will no longer be attending the 24hr race due to the fact that for the past few years I return home more wound up by the appalling behaviour encountered and feel that a decent holiday is required to calm down from the experience!
This will be the first time that I have attended the Classics and although I am sure that I will enjoy the racing/cars, I am just a little uneasy that my enjoyment may be impaired by any over exuberant Chavtastic behaviour and I am here to ask; What should I expect?

I have stopped going to the le Mans 24hrs after 13 years and went to the Classic 2 years ago.
There were no chavs to be seen and the atmosphere was excellent, with everyone having a good time without annoying anyone else.
Just hope it will be the same this year.

See you there !

'Le Mans Classic'? eek

What 'Le Mans Classic'? confused

There isn't a 'Le Mans Classic' and even if there was, it's been cancelled (see other thread for details). idea

So there's no 'Le Mans Classic' for the chav element to go to...is there? Eh?wink

I've been attending CLM since 2004 and never seen any chav elements. '04 was loverly & quiet , '06 was busier but still a great atmosphere ....... '08 is looking to be huge with loads of 'newbies' to the classic, but hopefully they will be car enthusiasts & not there just to get pissed.

Traditionally everyone who has attended has been there for the cars. MB has always looked like a mini classic car show smile + People actually leave the campsites to watch the racing !!wink Additionally the campsites were quiet all night with just the sound of supercharged Astons blasting up the track to keep you company smile .. no pissed up chavs playing music.

This year I notice a lot of 'moderns' are attending so wether this will change the atmosphere on the campsites will be interesting to see.

I bl00dy well hope not as the cobra club have got a very large chunk of MB (70 spaces), and there will be about 130 odd people, so any undue misbehaving will be swiftly dealt with, by a V8.
Besides I thought we made MB a V8 area only for the classic ????

I recommend watching practice under the trees at Tetre Rouge. its brilliant, over 4 hours you get to see all the great racers, from the 1920's to the early eighties. Really entertaining.

Don't put anything on the ground though, the stag beetles ('kin big) climb in if you do. Trust me on this one.

Were not going to the classic, we are chavs and pissed up idiots, we like people who hate cars and we all wear baseball caps back-to-front.

So we will see you all in June 2009 for more drunkern exploits!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please don't go to the classic, it will be sooooooooooo boring and nobody will have a good time.

Big Chav Love.....

Kevin & Perry and family, claiming dole and the social and loves Stella and alcopops!
