Working allmost day and night this week, to get to the testday on Saturday and Sunday.
Next week same scenario and on Saturday 9th, we're off !

Unfortunately the forecast is for an inch of rain on Sunday and a little on Saturday.  28 or so tomorrow and sunny.

Why is PQ so often wet?  The sad fact is that with no qualifying times having to be set, so many teams just don't even bother to do more than fine-tune their wet set-ups then we don't see the cars again.

Should be plenty of action Termie. Lots of new cars out there so getting data will be a priority. Also 40+ rookies that will need to get their ten laps in. Should make for a busy track. Let's just hope that if it is raining that no one has a big accident. The reserve list is looking rather thin should someone really batter a car.

I know an old green van for sale that needs its data checking...

I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

Kiwis do make cider and it's bloody awful.  Imagine Strongbow / Blackthorn mass produced muck that gives you acid reflux at 10 paces and you're pretty much there.  Honestly, it's just plain nasty!  Angry

Watching the "old" dvd's - right now it's the 2007 race. I did remember the weather as bad, but  Lips Sealed it's really pouring down.

Going through all the old races until monday, where we're off from Denmark to - Beausejour this year  Cry - didn't make it in time for Bleu Nord as we preferred. But what the h, it's going to be great no matter what!

By the way, is there a Gentlemans club/strip bar somewhere in the area of Le Mans? In case of a rainy wednesday we we're planning a night in town.

Something new  Grin.
It's a beer that has been brewn in Antwerp in the early 1900's, but didn't continue after WW2.  A former manager of Duvel searched the old recipes, quit his job and started to brew it again.  Huge succes from the launch & they won a gold medal at a competition in the states last month.

Allmost exclusively sold in Antwerp and as a result of the succes pretty hard to find at the moment.
