Autosport Le Mans Guide 2008
« on: June 06, 2008, 04:57:04 pm »
Just gone out and brought a copy of Autosport. This is the only issue I buy during the year, as I have every Le Mans Guide going back about 15 years. I will not be bothering again. Total rubbish.

I know all about the CA Dummies guide, and have already downloaded & donated (great work guys), but I just could not resist a look at what the country's major motor sport magazine has produced. Tosh Tosh Tosh.

If anyone else is considering buying a copy, don't do it. Just DON'T.

What am I doing, I'm not even going this year!!!

Enjoy your time in France, and enjoy the CA Dummies Guide. Save three quid by not buying the Autosport guide and have a Grand Manier Crape for me instead.

Cheers
HTB!

It may, however, have other uses.

This would once again make the Autosport guide an essential item when packing for Le Mans, but I think you could buy something softer stronger and much much longer for less £3.

I did notice that the CA guide still lists the Autosport guide as being something you should consider taking.

It astounds me that so few of the mags make any mention of LM at all. The number of us that enthuse about the greatest race on earth, attending or otherwise must exceed the readership of most rags. perhaps there should be a LM quarterly. Published by CA?
The info on our site is extensive, fresh and interesting, trouble is, that with so many threads it can be easy to miss something of importance.
So how about it? A monthly on-line review of all of the best bits, or perhaps a quarterly on line mag?

Depends on the size of your bum!
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you have an electrical problem.
