Avin when I eventually got there the buggers were going that fast that i settled for taking a photo of the screen

Image

well truth be told the car I was taking a photo of the car that had gone past and luckily there was a screen behind..... :wink:

sheer pace of the whole thing is awsome......


Image

the strange expression is due to the fact that on a sunday morning those that have been camping are starting to hum a bit :roll: and we were stood at the back :lol:

the MIE 2010 as far as I have been able to make out will be in late September and will be based around the Bugatti Track & not the full track

What was the failure rate on the diesels at Le Mans this year? Audi & Puegeot both seemed to have problems. Looks bad for Alvin & Barry's planned assault next year, doesn't it?

After all, why bother attempting to qualify if your motor's going to spew black smoke & end up being unreliable anyway? :P :P :P

That sounds like a guy with sour grapes because he had no car on M.T.I. Jim.
