I'm sure I'm not the only one going to Le Mans in a couple of weeks.

Who else is going, where are you staying and does anyone fancy either meeting with the cars or meeting for a beer?

You're not the only one! I'm staying at Le Bounty (private site south of the circuit) with a few mates. Already have a packed schedule so no time to meet but will be at CBW on Friday, will keep my eyes open for other Griffs.

Successful trip guys? My fuel gauge played up a bit now and then but, other than that, didn't miss a beat.

Great one for us. With one exception and that was where we camped.
For anyone considering White Rabbit Racing as a place to stay you should have a look at the reviews in Le Mans forum for other peoples reviews or PM me if you want mine.

Last time I went to Le Mans, I was in the Elan and it blew up (blown head gasket). We got towed by a grumpy Frenchman to a local garage and it got parked up in an industrial shed that was like the British sportscar hall of shame. It was rolled in right next to a Griff and Chim, there were a whole heap of MGs and Triumphs. It was a sad place - so many optimistic owners...
Glad you had a good trip and the car performed well.
