I had a dinner with Henri Pescarolo two days ago  8)

He's quite confident about his ability to compete against private Audi but he has some budget lackings.

I would like to suggest to all of you a CA subscription to help him.
Le Mans is life, anything before and after is just waiting...

... it's not the taking part but the winning that counts !

Not sure if we could come up with the sort of money he would be looking for!  How much is he asking for and what would we get in return??

BigH

Did you get a shot of him in a CA t-shirt Gilles?

Something along the lines of what we were intending for Morgan possibly.

I thought patroitism might be a concern, but doesn't deter the Twats from supporting Racing for Holland.

Gilles, any further info on what we could offer?

My thoughts too Steve, but if we get a group of pit passes, photo opportunities, name on car etc etc which is far more than we'd get with the Moggie then it could be interesting.

I fear it may be a tad on the expensive side though!!

Maybe Felix could donate some of his takings from the fish and chip wagon  ;)

Do you think Henri would look cute in the pink panties?

I fear you might be a tad too correct there Mark.

Just to add a pint on Money

225 T Shirts were sold, and had i charged £10 each , CA kitty would have £225 pounds for sponsoring

If i was able to Bulk buy the mugs i would get them for just under £4 , and charge £5 , making £1 per mug.

I would reckon that with a little thought into it, the goods that have been sold could raise £400, which is a good start to any sponsorship fund, Moggie or PUG .

Hey, I'll have you know that my profit margin is very modest.

Anything above that I put in the RNLI charity box that's chained to the counter in my van.

So what other products have you got planned Robbo??

I'm looking into embroidered polo shirts. caps and sweatshirts through a contact of mine.

I'm also looking at "Stubby Holders" or Can Coolers. Only problem is, to get them below £5 each I need to get at least 200 of them.  Could always add a pound per item for sponsorship????

In the danger to seem pedantic, the Pesca cars are Judd powered. What about some raffle where the winner draws a taxi lap in one of the Pesca cars or the Moggie ? With that outlook the wallet slips much easier out of the pocket, don't you think ?
I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

Whilst having dinner with the missus last night, I thought I'd probably have a pretty fine time if I f**ked-off to Vegas for a week or so. There are some great shows, all-night gambling and more tit bars than you could shake a stick at. Liquor is a bit expensive and a business class flight is a little more than I'd usually pay - but then I thought, "Club Arnage sponsorship!" Of course - they're a generous bunch and extremely charitable too. I figure I have as deserving a cause as Pesca or Charles Morgan - in fact more deserving. Because, unlike Henri Pescarolo and Charles Morgan, I'm not a millionaire.
So, come on fellas - I only need about 2000 bucks to have a right proper good time. I know it would give you all a nice warm glow to know that you are stumping up your hard-earned cash, so that I can indulge myself at no cost to me. I'll even wear my CA T-shirt in recognition of your generousity.
When can I expect the dosh?
