Paul was going to confirm officially after 1st Sept but hasn't updated website yet. Full details shortly I'd expect. Safe to say Dijon on Mon 11th Aug. Wed/Fri two tracks you're unlikely to have done in the north east (Vosges area). Hopefully an optional Le Mans beforehand on Sat 9th. So not as much...

Careful you don’t end up with all the overindulgent sleeping it off in your van.

Updated routes with a bit more hotel info: Bearing in mind we don't have LoT hotels confirmed for Le Mans and Le Luc yet. Fri: Calais-Le Mans scenic routes D438 or… https://maps.app.goo.gl/mkAq4MyiB9JdNq8R9 or https://maps.app.goo.gl/Gyqi61LwhZEYUvi58 Tue: Dijon-Grenoble-Le Luc via Route Napoeon htt...

Good spot Julien, that's the route I'd intended, descent to Malaucène.
South is the classic TdF ascent and would be busier, all the way to Orange via Carpentras.

I have edited this route to start from our hotel location on the day after the Dijon Trackday. https://maps.app.goo.gl/tti1h26ZqvfneDcG9?g_st=ic Both of the Tuesday routes look good. 👍 Steve. Your Hotel was the first location on that route. ;) I'll probably stay in Dijon the Monday night as we have...

Some route options to whet your appetite but bearing in mind we don't have LoT hotels confirmed yet. Some past history guesswork involved but especially the one Tue/Wed night on Cote d'Azure leaves routes a bit tbc. Fri: Calais-Le Mans scenic routes D438 or… https://maps.app.goo.gl/FNzsnwCf9QoKExgJ8...

Nice plate (and car)! Wasn't me.

Got all those on my audiobook list.

Plato has a podcast, 'Fuelling Around' which is worth a listen - guest interview style.

Kinger, I'm probably going to take the M2 for between tracks so would have loads of space. TFL are bringing the Caterham. Cheers, Ali Do you fancy joining us for the convoy down south on the Thursday? Holiday Inn Ashford Central (Thursday night) Eurotunnel 10:36 (Friday morning) Neil, Ferg and Stu ...

Also as I'm taking a trolley jack, tools and a quantity of spares I was wondering if any of you solo travellers would have room for 1 or 2 crash helmets.

They look ok, more Cooper S than JCW [emoji6]

Not bad at all though, offsets and width differences are not huge.
Love a mucky MINI (the wife not so much!).

Good to have my suspicions confirmed. lol
Do they look OK? Thought they'd look weirdly narrow and inboard.

Recently picked up a new MINI JCW 3DR for Mrs C and wanted some summer/winters rather than all seasons this time. Not a fan of the MINI recommended narrow rims and 185 Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D. I think they are narrow to allow snow chains (which I’d never use). Maybe good in deep snow but quite a c...

Now SOLD thanks to SE. :) ******************************** Mrs C's current MINI is about to be chopped in unless there is any quick interest in a lux spec, 190bhp DCT, winter tyre'd zoomabout? MINI Cooper S Sport Auto 62K mines, 68 plate Orange with black roof, mirrors and stripes. Was a dealer demo...
