Same as last year this will be in the CA guide, see the current status at http://www.clubarnage.com/caguide/caguide2007/c20-whowhenwhere.pdf
Please post any changes or new information here, I guess by now everyone has finalized his/her plans.
Cheers

My group be on Beausejour from Thursday late morning/early afternoon until Monday in the AM.
There's about 22 of us and we have bought an old school mini-bus...which I'm promised will be getting a suitably impressive 'retro' paint job. There's also a camper making the sojourn as well. Watch out for the big screen showing Bruce Lee...(amongst other things).
See you there. 8)

To be honest...I haven't got a clue! I'll attempt to locate that information and get back to you.
-
Excellent! I need to know this sort of info in case there's a classic at the race.
Incidentally Werner, can you add the details for Team Zarse this year:
7 Zarses this time, travelling down on Wed arriving evening to Maison Blanche Zone D. If you see a convoy of 1 X Porsche 996, 1 X Aston Martin Vanquish S (or maybe the Nigel Dean DAX Cobra, depending on the mood of the owner) plus of course the inevitable world famous Commer, then that's us. All CAers new and old are welcome to call in any time for a nice cold Cidre Brut.

Andy...I don't think it's going to be 'classic' by any stretch of the imagination to be honest!
When I said old...what I really should have said was 'knackered and if it was a horse would probably be taken out into a filed and shot between the headlamps'

What after what you just said about our beloved Houx Annexe. You can shove your nice cold Cidre Brut.

I envy so many of you going so early :( Team Monkey will be leaving it very late this year. Little Monkey has his last exam (gcse) on the morning of the 15th, so the old Alfa will be parked outside the school gates with me and Middle Monkey tapping the dashboard, as soon as he is finished 10.30am ish we will be on our way ;D Plan to liaise with the Time Team on the M25 and using our club thing (as was) through the tunnel and on our way. Camping on the way down somewhere arrive at Mulsanne mid day on Saturday.
Hotel Sunday night back home Monday night, but lets not think about that yet!! Can't wait.

Sadly no - both have work obligations I believe.
I'm hooking-up with the rest of our UK contingent as always - will plan seeing you at the Champers bar at some point in proceedings. I too am sorry I missed Sebring (but not the weather before). It's the first time I've been absent from that event since the late 90s.
Have you pondered the Petit in Atlanta later this year? I'll pour a beverage or 10 down your neck at Le Mans and get you to sign on the line!

Steve,
Vehicles noted, will keep an eye out for you.
I wonder if the M6 suffered the same fate as my M6 did yesterday, gearbox died. Not a good feeling. And what did the good old boys at BMW give me as a replacement whilst said M6 is re fettled, yep you guessed it.......a Nissan X Trail (diesel) !!!!!!!

Oh nice!
Reminds me of my last visit to Dublin a couple of weeks ago when my hire car was "upgraded" at the airport to a Hyundai 4x4 of some unpronounceable name with front windows that lowered themselves at anything over 70mph. Mind you, that was the top speed!
Gearbox out of an M6 sounds a bit costly!!!!!!!!

Andy Zarse...
Apparently we have purchased a 17-seater LDV Convoy!
I hope tGod the blooming thing makes it there and back!
Getting the late ferry from Poole-Cherbourg on the Wednesday night which I'm guessing is the same one as the Wildfowlers...
-
Who, when, where? - that's a lot of questions, all of them very difficult for a Tuesday morning.
Well, I reckon...most of Tuesday I'll be wobbling through the Surrey, and then the South Downs, probably being chased by a dog, in the regions of Cobham, Godalming, Haslemere, Hill Brow (oh God, I just know what's going to be involved there...), Petersfield and Portsmouth in time for a late 'artnoon crossing to Cherbourg. Then an early start on Wednesday morning, proceeding in a general south easterly direction through the Normandy Alps and Calvados Cols, giving it all I can muster in order to stay in front of the large threshing machine that that b*stard Zarse will have tipped off. Overnight in a hedge, haystack, or maybe Domfront, and then onto Le Mans approaching via Arnage and hoping to get to Maison Blanche by Thursday night.
I suspect I'll be quite thirsty and with buttocks like a baboon in heat.

H,
When you manage to find the A3 again, stay to the left of that solid white line. Us engineers call that the hard strip!
Generally it's a lot smoother but mind out for the odd exhaust!
I'm not sure if cycles are allowed down the A3(M) but will let you know tomorrow. My site is just off it.
Good luck on the ride and don't forget there's a 'score' init at MB.
Jerry
-
Steve,
Luckily the M6 is under warranty. Spoke to the garage today ( I had to chase them !) and they also found a second problem, something to do with Vanos and oil whatever that is.
Anyway, upshot was they did not know how to cure either the Vanos or gearbox and now await instruction from BMW.
If you sit back and think about it for too long you could begin to get quite upset.

Apparently we have purchased a 17-seater LDV Convoy!
Hope you like the smell of Gaulloise, cos I reckon you're going to enjoy a ride in the tow truck.
The LDV is, as I'm sure you all know, basically a Leyland Sherpa, designed in the early seventies. New bits and bobs like engines now of course, but it's a very old design made on what was then a decrepid production line. It was itself based on the 1960 Austin J4 type thingy and they share some body panels to this very day.

Team JPC will be arriving from early Thursday morning. Usual spot on Maison Blanche in the Platinum Triangle with DfH, Delboy and Rick. We should be pretty easy to find!

So no cold draught,
No lobster cooking,
No mega stereo, ...
Just me and Flameboy, the small BBQ and some lukewarm belgian beers. YEAHAA

I'm leaving on my own early wednesdaymorning for Beausejour with my tent. I brought the bicycle so I can go to the outer limits of the track during quali and race. I hope the weather will be ok...the various forecasts are contradicting each other. A little shower during the race is ok to shake things up a bit, but please no monsoon...
