As nelly said "PH stikers"......
Well how about PH polo shirts with LeMans 2003 and on the back "5 days drinking, 24hr Racing and I still have the same shirt on!"
Then a list of all PH's and there cars going to LeMans next year?

Like the idea of that, think getting all the names and cars on may be a tad difficult though, except the XXXL size shirt

Then again, how about some PH flags, flown high above the campsites, far easier to locate the bars!

Having produced T-shirts fro Le Mans in the past, there's generally a lot of interest until you try and get money out of people for them.

I've still got about 20 left from 2000 and have still got the wallet pains

You send in £25 with your name and car type. The basic PH shirt is there.
You would get it the month befor LeMans?

As Stig says and has I've experienced selling other things, enthusiasm is one thing, commercial reality is different.

Getting event specific merchandise made up is a bit risky, but I will give some thought to perhaps a non-dating Le Mans polo shirt and flags.

The Spa shirts seemed to go ok

Most of this was just a bit of fun....but Ted it would be nice to spot other PH so if you could put a price to a PH LeMans shirt that would be cool.
PS a flag go down very very well to......

Pistonheads 'Le Mans 2003' stickers would be a nice idea as well

Yep me too - could probably get you 4 sales Ted if you do decide to produce them.

Why not just get paid orders a month prior to the event and then get them printed?

Ted , do a quality polo shirt and let people pay on order some time prior to June. I rather like a good quality shirt that I can wear on it's 25th birthday before my kid's kids than a shirt that won't survive the weekend (no, still no XXXXL by then).
Colors ? TVR purple of course with Rollcentre green letters ?!? Uh ah, that will bite on early sunday morning.
BTW, there was talk about a PH meeting point for LM2003. Great idea and I'm determined to do my bit to arrange this . Houx Annexe would be a great place since most TVR owners seem to camp there. Can we do it ? Yes, we can I think... anyone else ?

Edited because of too much ideas in mind...

These are definitely a good idea, we'll take 10, also like Mgv8s wording for it as well!!

Although I've also tried doing T-shirts for Le Mans and they can be a bit of a pain, but this was amongst friends...

But I would like to think that people on here would be good enough to stump up the numbers and cash..

Like the idea of a Pistonheads area on Houx Annexe - it will be a bloody long bit of rope to markout the 'reserved' area though.

Once BTaP is out of the way I'll get on the case. As long as its done in plenty of time I can order in batches and minimise my exposure whilst ensuring everyone who wants one will get one. I'll do grey polo shirts as they'll hide a bit of dirt and won't be as hot as black in the sun that's bound to accompany the weekend

Top man Ted,

I'll take a few, prefer T shirts, but Polo's OK. Any chance of any by Christmas So I can sit in front of the TV watching last years race and dream of 2003
