Funny, though, I don't recall any 956/962s at all.
Ok I dismiss and wrote 917 when I thought 962.

that's a revelative lapsus ...

I loved the long taile Porsche 917 in the Museum, it was the first one I saw for real.

I saw on sunday that concrete stairs are being built in order to allow the access to a new entrance of the Museum directly from the Dunlop curve.

Ouest France report : an English woman was the 800 000th visitor of the Museum yesterday...

In the cars to come : a Bentley Speed 8 2003 "replica" (what does that mean ? a car without the engine ?)

Beaulieu motor museum? Do you mean the one in England?

Just checking - as I live about 10 minutes drive away from it........

On Jérôme Mugnier's Virages : a link to LM posters, programs, and parades, since 1923...

I can't read the french owners of the website (Gege & Lolo ?) who gathered all that stuff... great job, though...

A little (true) anecdote. I went on a Brooklands/Musee de la Sarthe twinning car rally in mid-80s, led from 'our' side by (the late) Ray Wiltshire. Jolly good fun and all that, but the formal black tie dinner there ended with the usual round of speeches and gift exchanging. Brooklands' gift to them was an illuminated scroll, and they gave us a Tiger Moth!!

Which, I think, has now been restored by the Brooklands engineer/mechanics.
