I took Ray Bellm to see a flat that his daughter was buying (he flew over from Monaco). Had a nice chat with him about Le Mans and racing in general. I very rarely get star struck when meeting famous people, but I had butterflies waiting for him to come into the office. He gave me a couple of good racing tips when I asked him how come endurance racers can keep going so long and I'm knackered after a 90 second Sprint. He said; 1. Don't hold the steering wheel tightly 2. Remember to keep breathing when go go round fast corners! Sounds obvious but it really makes a difference, especially the breathing bit!
I believe that he is the president of the Mclaren F1 owner's Club too. Name dropping over, back to the thread.

That's who I use, however I believe that if you recommend someone who applies, you and possibly them get a discount/extra credit. Quite fun last year driving through the toll at 30kph. And it saves all the hassle of undoing 3 point harness (in my case) and running round the car to collect the ticket, finding somewhere to keep it till the next toll and then trying to find it, along with the change. Does cost a bit to set up and run, but worth it for me.
