The flies are attracted to the way Flasher smells after a few days at le mans. Its not the T-shirt.

Seriously answer, yes. Orange is just as bad at attracting those bloody firefly things. Only 2 colour shirts they were attracted to were my yellow PH shirt and my orange Valencia away shirt. And they were 2 of the 3 T-shirts I fitted into the boot of the Elise for LM 2005...

In which case just do a plain white T-shirt with "feck off if your not a PHer" written on it.

...well except for the roasting effect they had, but you were probably too p!$$ed to notice that

Blue/purple Ted, or could we adopt a team and go for that colour perhaps?

Seloc did some nice polo shirts last year. They were more expensive but, in the nicest possible sense, a bit more classy. Polo shirt with collars, writing in embroidery etc. A bit more of a "keeper". DOnt get me wrong, I loved last years PH shirt and still wear mine now (well, not right now, I am in the office and T-shirts are frowned upon in law firms. Obviously). However, its another angle on things.

If not, how about an outline of the Le Mans circuit included across the back with a PH logo? It can double up as a map when we're drunk and trying to work out where we are.

Or how about a logo saying "My highest attained speed on the way to Le Mans this year is ..........." so that you can write it in a la name badge style on your school shirts.

or how about I shut up and leave it to you with a few years experience?

I'll be going for T shirts again this year rather than polos, but following similar feedback from other people who don't want throwaway type shirts, I'm be going for the next notch up the scale in terms of quality. I'm just checking pricing now.

to be fair the black ones seemed to have stood up better than the yellow ones from 04, despite the fact i have worn the former far more often and black usually looks cack after a few washes. Logos and all still well intact.

I thought you were going for gold lamay t-shirts Ted?

Look, see, found a pic of you wearing a sample
(nice chest wax, BTW )








PS Ted, if you need any comparative quotes, Ive now found a much quicker source than last year, UK based this time
