Hi Werner, not exactly the same as a printed map, but over at Beer Mountain we have the zones marked out on some arial photos. I don't know if these would be of any use to you.

Hi, wonderful, and most likely no copyright issues with this one ;D Would team beermountain allow CA to use it for the guide? Whoever made it would of course get the credits!

Cheers
I will ask the original supplier of the images if this is OK, but I should see no problems.  :)

 ;D :D Werner, you have a PM  ;D

Thanks a lot

Another request: Some of you got your tickets already. For the guide I could need jpgs of the following
1 GA ticket
1 tribune ticket (doesn't matter which tribune, just for illustration)
1 Parking ticket


If someone could scan those and mail it to me or post it here, that would be great

Cheers

Great stuff - well done Nordic.

Noticed one typo - bottom of P3, talking about Bentley, "then had two 'trial' runs", not  trail.

Sorry, I may have missed this.  I am putting a couple of changes into the "how to get tickets" section now that the styles have changed.  Is a parking ticket now "hanger style" and bar-coded?  Has anybody got one?

Just got my ACO membership renewal through, and the accompanying brochure lists all the advanteges and benefits of membership.  Included in this is breakdown cover.  They havn't mentioned this in the paperwork for the last few years, so I was under the impression it had been dropped, but it is still there.

Can you add item 14 to the list in C29 as follows:

14    Roadside emergency assistance throughout France 24/7.  This is limited to one (per year) free breakdown/tow truck intervention, and the loan of a replacement vehicle for one day in France if your own vehicle is immobilised for more than 24 hours or necessitating at least 5 hours work.  Spare parts will be at the members cost.  This is fairly limited cover, and for most non-French residents, it would be better to take out additional cover to include re-patriation of the vehicle in the event of a major breakdown/accident.

Cheers

Werner - could you add the CA Cavalcade to the race week schedule, do you think?  Departs CBW, St Saturnin at 14.00.  Return to the circuit by 18.00 approx.  Thank you.

I see that the Drivers' Parade section is still just the map.  The web-site has now got the '07 info on it

I wonder, am I too late to send you our team details for inclusion in the guide?
