it was my first time at le mans and that did look random.

Were you having trouble with one of the buggies as it seemed to stay on the trailer a while

I did have a problem. Having driven down I had mechanical problems about 60k short of Le mans on the autoroute and the team came out to pick me up. The buggy stayed on the trailer til Friday when we fixed the leaky oil problem but the overheating was too much after a short test run into the track. Rather than risk the trip back I got it recovered and made the drive back in an Astra. The black buggy uses the trailer for the trip both ways anyway!

Cheers

Luckily not. That would have been a tad hot!

Would have been interesting when you hand over your passport for the crossing
