And i'll be there smile

Can't wait, just hoping for slightly better weather than last year. All that rain was just depressing.

Still, i'm reliably informed that it's illegal to rain at Le Mans 2 years on the trot wink

I'm hoping so.

2006 was great... even though I lost my suntan lotion... (read left it in the champagne tent)

Fingers crossed for the weather, it was pretty miserable watching the race in the constant rain on Sunday morning last year, at least it cleared up a bit for the drive home on Monday though.

I'll be taking some waterproofs just in case, last year we bought what appeared to be waterproof jackets from Carrefour which turned out to be 'light drizzle proof' but nothing more! Unfortunately being in an Elise I think the wellies will have to be sacrificed to leave room for other stuff frown

I refuse to believe its going to rain this year. I will not be taking any wellies, waterproofs or umbrellas. Just my Hawaiian Tropic, tee shirts and a cap. Always an optimist!
Come on Le Mans give me sunshine......

All the wet tales from last year (I was there too) reminds me that I remain convinced that a grandstand seat is a must. Forget the expense, it means you can enjoy it whatever the weather. R.
