Not me sadly, I only ever made the first one 10 years ago when it was (IMO) sensibly arranged for September!

How much I do love Le Mans, being there twice only a few weeks apart does seem to stretch it a little bit, yes!

There's quite an interesting thread in the Historic Racing Today section describing the trials and tribulations of people trying to get their cars onto the entry list. Seems quite a kerfuffle with lots of tension spread over many months, often ending in disappointment.
From a punter's point of view, ten T70s, 14 GT40s and a couple of 917s? Can't wait.
Also, a couple of 512BBs, which was my childhood poster-on-the-wall car.
Really can't wait.

Le Mans Classic 2012
Yes I will be there as well from friday.
Any good tips for parking? How is the museum ?
I'm looking forward to see another great event like Monaco Historique.
Cheers

The rouge car park is probably better as it has easy access to everything and easier to get in and out of.

Lotus 15, Lotus Elite, Deep Sanderson and GT40, is that right?
And a certain Mr Pirro in 2 of them.
Where are we likely to find you, Roger?
