And now I've re-read the piece, it gives last year's date as well....
The 'Legends' support race does give owners of eligible cars (usually must be of a type that has raced in period at LM) another chance to race the legendary circuit besides the Classic, which is always oversubscribed. Hard work though, with all the main race hullabaloo taking precedence, and from what I've seen and heard you don't get a lot of track time for your outlay. BUT, if you want to tick the LM box, I'm sure worth every considerable penny.....
