As posted on the other thread I wanted to go in 07 but there is no way I can do it in July and FF6 in August.
I do hope some SE elises go as I am sure it's a blast

Tom cant make this as he is on his honeymoon so we are both going to go on FF6 instead. If i could afford to do both then i would.

i never really fancied Le Mans. I prefer driving to watching. Besides, you can just have a massive piss up in your back garden, as by all accounts, 99% of the people that go cant even remember watching the race

Sounds like you'd be at home there Mckean?
Can we not incorporate some track action in to the trip?

Last year some folk did bribe the airport security so they could do Vmax runs in their hypercars

we did a trackday at Le mans last year. Was a really good circuit. When it closed for lunch we went out to find the 24 hour course and ended up doing a vmax run around it. It was bastiel day (public holiday) so there was no traffic, and ,thankfully, no police
I was off the clock on the Mulsanne straight

Facking spot-on John!
In 06, the only bit we watched was waiting for sunrise at Tertre Rouge (half pissed) which was pretty special, the only other bit was when we went for a chinese on the Mulsanne Straight, you could see (& hear
) the cars blootering by at 220+mph
