http://www.hoverspeed.com/I would avoid the Transmanche ferry, as Steve says it is VERY hit and miss weather it runs, the ferries are crap and full of lorries so loading-unloading can be a desiel fumed nightmare. The Hoverspeed fast cat service is alot better and only takes 2 hours, no lorries or coachs. The drive from Deippe is a dream, You can give Rouen a wide berth and enjoy some great roads and still be there in under 3 hours.

Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better.

If you haven't had the time to look on the ACO website for the mouthwatering collection of talent appearing at the classic then hook in here. http://www.lemans.org/univers_sport/lemans_classique/live/pages/programme_gb.htOur Johnny will be appearing, closely stalked by his new mate JP.  |

Is it worth thinking about roping our camping area off for the classic, is there a preferred location, not downhill of the bogs, do we know a definate contingent size? |

Recieved our tickets from the ACO last week, tribune tickets do not have allocated seats, could be good, pick your favorite spot , or bad, trying to find 4 seats together if the tribunes busy.

I watched them unload 4 bike-engined kitcars on the way to LM advising them it was fine, only to see one guy crack his ally sump! 3 hours delay, due to loading, on the way home too! |

I've got two available flats 500 m from the railway station for LM Classic.
Anyone interested in?

  All sorted. Bobblehat racing (minus Bobblehat  ) are coming to the Classic. We are going out on Wednesday on the Portsmouth-Caen night ferry returning Monday afternoon by the same route. We will hopefully see some of you guys in Maison Blanche.

Well I guess that makes you the CA advance party. So make sure you take plenty of tape to mark off all our pitches!!!  |
