Hi Stoffer,
There was so much going on that I don't think we managed to tell you half of the war stories. Motor racing always requires a degree of lateral thinking, doesn't it? Tank tape has to be the most useful substance ever invented.

Hi there you two! (Letter in post to you, Stoffer - good old fashioned snail mail!). Hope you've gotten over your cold, '18', because I've now got the damn thing! Been laid up for 2 days! I have some pics for you, by the way, including one (yes, just one) of you in the 'D'.

Great! And I'm sorry about the lurgy. Scott didn't get it, which must mean that a glass of cider over your head is a sure-fire prophylactic against the common cold.

Nice one. (But I'd rather drink it, personally!).

(Check your PM box, by the way).

Sorry for the cold you caught, pals, not sure cider is adaptated... I'll take care of mine with a fine 1988 Clos du Marquis (Saint Julien) that should please to Stoffer

5pm ? 9am ? What do they think ? That we're all retired ?

josvandeperre · 3 Oct 2002, 08:17 (Ref:394708)

They lied - it was a repeat of their June preview - sorry

Fab · 4 Oct 2002, 06:02 (Ref:395461)

"You may say I'm a dreamer..." but do you think we could expect a DVD about the Classic week-end ? Even a simple one ? Please mister Duke !!!

I missed all the Eurosport hours for the Classic reports...

A marvellous idea, my friend, but I didn't notice many TV cameras around the circuit all over the weekend - did you?

I had eyes only for the cars

but no, I saw nothing

Strange really when they are shown as one of the sponsors of the event !

And just think how fabulous that footage would have been - particularly of some of those glorious old cars on the circuit during the night. A great opportunity missed, it would seem.

TimD · 8 Oct 2002, 17:30 (Ref:398518)

When Eurosport is mentioned, sayings involving parties and breweries spring readily to mind.

FG1 · 9 Oct 2002, 07:05 (Ref:398962)

The photo that Fab took of me in the ACO grandstand in Stoffer's hat is now gracing the foyer of Epsom Playhouse where I am working this week. Everyone loves it, even I don't think it's too bad, i.e. it looks something like me!

Thanks Fab! And thanks to Stoffer too for the loan of the hat!

There is an excellent article in the latest issue of Evo by Mark Hales about driving in the LM Classic.

Nordic · 9 Oct 2002, 11:45 (Ref:399180)

For some more photos of this years classic have a look at www.filmspeed.co.uk this is a commercial operation but it has loads of thumbnails to look at.

David Legangneux has updated the possible 2003 entry list :

http://lmspm.ifrance.com/lmspm/24auto03/index.htm

What do you think ? Two MG in the LMP 675 category ? Sounds good to me !

And I love to see those three Bentleys against the three private Audis... oh boy !

But not enough Judd Courages at my taste...

**Aysedasi** · 14 Oct 2002, 16:23 (Ref:403989)

Who the hell is that!!!

(You swine, Monsieur Fabrice!!)

He's getting in early again, then?

If you don't mind, Fab, I'll move this post to the Le Mans 2003 thread......

Yes, I made a mistake (again

)... but it's useless now, Rdjones posted it already at the right place...
