Everyone who is anyone will be there, that's who! Be there or be square! Last year we welcomed around 1,500 during the day.

Me and a number of other cars will all be heading that way - and then happy to join a convoy to Mulsanne in the PM.

Great place to go! Getting in and out can get a little tricky though.

Not really if you go out a different way. Don't go back under the bridge but turn left. You'll come out at the Auchan roundabout. You can come in that way too.

Yep, planning to be there. And if it works timing wise, a convoy to the Mulsanne would be great smile.

lowdrag whats the score on a PH convoy to Mulsanne, does the local Police have to be informed or can it be done spur of moment?

A "convoy" (come in Rubber Duck) would involve traffic lights being manned, roundabouts and so on so isn't possible. The police will be closing these for the parade leaving St. Saturnin at 4pm so it is up to you what you do. Now I posted this a few pages back, but you must remember that the traffic on a Friday afternoon on the inner ring road is a nightmare. I know it is longer, but I suggest you take the motorway from Auchan roundabout direction Tours and come off at junction 25 marked Parigné l'Eveque. Then turn right after you leave the péage direction Le Mans to the next roundabout at Bois Martin, then left to Ruaudin and then Mulsanne. That way you will avoid the problems and probably take half the time. Now a "convoy" on the motorway seems feasablebeer

Frankly I think you'll get few takers at 12.30pm. Make it an hour later and probably people will sign up. I shall be leaving at 2pm and will take that route so will have to catch you all up at Mulsanne.

The Lemonballers will be there! It is one of many many highlights of the weekend - always a great atmosphere and some fantastic cars to look around.

This was us in 2007, sadly not quite as good a lineup this year. (Mine was the silver Rover and that's my mug stood next to it)

I'll count you in then. If your invite isn't there yet, it probably ain't gonna be. Duncan Wiltshire will surely have sorted out the parade by now. I've done it a few times, and frankly I haven't done it for some time. My worst memory is a few years back when it was so hot and so slow that every Cadillac (the make of the year) broke down with the heat. Two miles equalled two hours - impossible with an old car.

As every year. From late morning to 2:00pm-ish.

Moi in the Aston
Mme in the MGB GT
Enfants in the Playground area near the beer tents

Tried to bump into your last year Steve, met some of your friends with their beautiful Jags who were waiting for you to turn up... so perhaps this year we'll finally meet. Since we are neighbours we should really say hello at some point smile
