Unfortunately Angie and I can't make it this year - first time since 1992 that we haven't been there. I'm not sure how I'll cope! Maybe I'll have to have an all night BBQ or something. (That'd please the neighbours!)

Anyway - I've dragged out our video of the journey to the 2005 Le Mans when Ian C, Digsy and Alex all came along with us. Just to get you all in the mood.

I still want to go! :(

Poof!

:p

[scooby_doo_do]

:-) I always camp in expo as we stay under the cattle sheds. Its funny as everyone takes the p*ss, but look who's laughing when it rains, and we don't get woken up at 7am in a 30oc tent!

[Gaz Walker]

I think I said I was going to be there but mawby deleted it ;)

Obviously it wasn't important...

If anyone wants a meet up for a drink (or ten!), the number's in my sig :)

Gaz.

[Soop Dogg]

:-) and we don't get woken up at 7am in a 30oc tent!

Yeah - I've had a few 'boil in the bag' mornings at Le Mans! Not nice - expecially if you've been out until 4am the night before!

[scooby_doo_do]

Exactly ;-).. My funiest night was when we went to Arnarge and had to walk home. We ended up in a field face to face with a not so nice looking bull, and had to leg it over a fence. We'd been to A&E that night as my freind dislocated his elbow trying to break up some wood for our fire.

[Dave Haggas]

Hi guys.Well this year it looks like I will be with team Creation autosportif with their new car.
Simon,come and find me like last year,hopefully I wont be as busy as before!

[Class One]

Dave, would also like to meet up if poss. Would be very much appreciated.

[Ian R]

which month is it ???

[scooby_doo_do]

June 16th and 17th

[Dave Haggas]

Dave, would also like to meet up if poss. Would be very much appreciated.



Yeah Doug,will try to sort something ref a meet up.Only problem for me is that I do Composite work and as Im sure you are aware LMP 1 cars are all composite.
Simon came to vist me last year only to see me dragged off to another team who were in trouble,so didnt even get 2 mins for a chat!!!

[SimonB]

Yeah, you were looking very hassled! Bloody inconsiderate drivers, always breaking stuff... :)

[Jspec Germany]

If I'm not in Norway (89% chance of having to go first two weeks), I may make the drive. Sounds like a good time and I've never been.

[Class One]

Mate it's the best week long weekend of your life, I promise you. :D

[Jspec Germany]

Better than Dragonball? Yam?

[Class One]

Whilst not being party to the yam reference ( I guess you had to be there to apprceiate it) I had to choose between going to le mans or the Dragonball.

So that'll be the reason for going to Le Mans. :)

[Jspec Germany]

aha.... wery intelesting.... yah.... I'm gonna plan on making the trip then. How many people are camping?

[Class One]

About 80,000+ ? :shrug:

[scooby_doo_do]

its the largest event outside of the Uk with the most English supporters... I think ;-)

Here's a website with quite a few tips etc on. http://www.beermountain.com/ - May not be work safe to a few peeps!

[Bobbeh]

Me and a guy from work are thinking about going this year. It would be cool to convoy down if possible as hes a fan of Supras :)

[Need4Speed]

I'll be there in the Corvette! Camping at Beausejour. Out on Speedferries 7am on the 14th, back on the 18th.

Where's the Friday meet?

[scooby_doo_do]

theres a load of people meeting at jennine's bar on thursday night. we'll be over there everyday as its 100m from our camp :)

[Dave Haggas]

Well,I will be heading out on Thursday the 31st of May.Just thought Id mention that.This means that Im trapped there until the 18th June.......ho hum.:search:

[Wayney]

Is anyone from here going to be there?

Dave, I've got a couple of mates going down, I'm up for going down, can u still get tickets & accommodation?

Do u know any useful web links? :)

[4packet]

I'll be there in the Supe too. Staying on Houx Annexe from Thurs. Mulsanne/Arnage on the Friday before the parade then no doubt bumbling around 'the' roundabout on Friday night. Other than that I'll prob be too drunk to drive anywhere else......
