Hello there,

We plan to go to Le Mans Classic this summer with the TVRCC France. We know that our club is not very big and we'll be very happy if we can book an area especially for TVR like the others clubs. I just wanted to know if many of you plan to go there and would be delighted if we can be a lot of TVRs there.

If you have any suggestions...

Thanks

Romain

I've spoken to quite a few or are planning to go (can't make it myself), so it might be worth a post on the TVRCC site, as you'll more likely get their attention there.

I'm going in my Vixen - although it's completely stripped down to the chassis at the moment.

I was thinking about going but with Back Home the following weekend it cant be done now.

Next time though.

I am hoping to go to the Circuit Des Ramparts (sp?) in September - that looks like fun

Classic Le Mans is excellent, far better than other event. Circuit des Remparts is better still if you incorporate a nice drive down. Been last 10 years. If I had to chose I'd chose Angouleme and do the rally on the saturday. sTeVeR

I'm going in the Sagaris but I'm tagging along with 20 plus cars from the UK Cobra Replica club.

They managed to get some good ferry deals - approx £40 for Newhaven to Dieppe.

Plus I purchased the option to go round the track for £72

Would be good to meet up with you though for a blast.

I went to the last one in 2004 and it is so much nicer than the 24hr, less people, cleaner and the roads were empty

me n Griff4.0 are tagging along with a load of Triumphs (TSSC), there may also be a few more tivs comming too. We will be parked in the Triumph section.

Anyone know if the £72 lap is a precession or can we go "B*lls Out"?

after the races Griff n me are headed for the Pyranees, tunnels, mountain passes and anywhere else that we can create some noise. Might even get a day or 2 on the beach at Cannes or St tropez, and hunt out some Porkers and Fezzas for a laugh.

If anyone fancy's a hoon drop us a line.

The lap time we watched last time round was more of a spirited precession

Not sure about that, a spirited precession in a Cerbera could have major issues, it'd be a bit like taking an Irish Woolfhound to the feline version of Crufts.

I assume you all mean a procession?

It looks great but unfortunately clashes with the Festival of Speed at Goodwood which I just couldn't miss.

Thanks very much for your replies!
I think we will book as a club there! Some French TVR owners come from Paris, North, North East, i come from the South East.
Some of you can take the road in France all together...
If some of you want to continue a trip done to the Riviera, you can follow me and we can organise a little meeting in our dealership.
Then, for all of you who are going, that could be nice if you can drop me an email with your contacts ( romain.rousseaux@tvr-france.com )!

In addition, i'm glad to see that some of you go to Angouleme, we plan to do this event with the TVRCC France as well!
Send a email for this one too, it could be fantastic to join there.
