Enjoy Le Mans, I may have a few tales to tell about the past 30 years and will link them here, assuming that is OK.

Oh, yes please! Or start an 'LM Memories' thread?

This will be my 30th consecutive Le Mans with a media pass, I have been commissioned to write up some experiences by this site.

It is sponsored by Nitto Tires and is a Car Culture at large place, there may already be some content on there that might interest the Tenthers. It had a break in operations for around 8 months and it is slowly getting back on the road. Any comments or feedback, positive or negative, will be welcomed, as we can only improve with the helps of others.

I'm assuming that it won't fit on the box as HD eats the memory.
It fills just under half, from memory. Something like 40%. I tend to annoy the other members of the family by hogging so much memory, but it's a tactic which means they tend to get the bluray review for me at Christmas most years...

Capacity is 320 GB, only half full, should fit two times 24 LM.

I was not popular in 2011 after recording so much coverage that a few of my sister's TV appearances got deleted. Oops.

Thanks whitemr2. That's the capacity of a Sky+ box is it?

It should say somewhere on your box.

I don't know, I live in Holland, it's not a sky device. Please check your manual for capacity.

Ok so if a 4h 49min F1 broadcast in HD used 18% of my box capacity then it should fit - just. If I don't record the night hours in HD we should be flying!

Doing some quick maths. 4hours 49 mins = 4.816667 hours.

(4.816667/18)x100 = 26.7593

You should be able to record about 26 and 3/4 hours of HD footage.

A 4h 49min F1 broadcast would use use about 200% of my (brain)box capacity.......

Reminds me of.....

Kryten: Sir, can we take a break? It appears my intelligence circuits have melted.

Well those tyres need to be tested somewhere we can't have them failing on real cars can we, it also acts as a feeder series for the WEC.

Definitely got a reminder when I was soaked afterwards! Went down the Mulsanne on the way back to the hotel and towards Indianapolis and Arnage. I couldn't get over how much tighter Indy was compared to video games and TV. I always thought that the right hand "kink" was a decent length away from Indianapolis and so close, truly impressed by the speed the prototypes carry into there now. Can't wait to see them in the flesh in a months time!
