There is a also going to be parade lap at the Silverstone Classic. Expected to be over 450 Astons there. Should be quite a sight. Are you going to that one as well Simon? I think thst will end up being more of a queue than a parade lap.

as part of the hospitality package, or standalone ? (I've done the former, IIRC the latter was £1k ?)

Am also doing Silverstone and possibly one or two others still tbc

Lap(s) of Le Mans is a must:



When I did it, the first lap was a parade. Second was a healthy sprint. Third was all out. Fourth was hoping the fuel would last.

Seb try and make the Saturday, that's when the parade lap is. Also remember there are no tickets for sale on the day.

That looks like a 600HP Le Mans, what a beast. I think it had the most powerfull producion car engine in the world when it was made.

Cool, looking forward to meeting a few people, though as you say, sounds more like a queue !
