Nearly there- time flys and need to get ferries booked....

Timetable and entry lists here- https://peterauto.peter.fr/en/evenem...4/article/home

Looks like only taking two cars, so will be running light unless anyone wants anything taking to the Madrid area!

Yes, but they're probably on some 'super advance special saver caravan Porsche owners club' offer... I'm on 'freight'!

What route & day? (pm if you'd rather it's not public)

You can't win. Having booked a ferry crossing to Spain and had it confirmed, the Ferry company have now cancelled the sailing!

New funnels not fitted in time, apparently. (All to do with emissions. )

So looks like now having to get a night boat to Caen the eve before then drive through France, and of course the day before is a bank holiday. Then there is the question on whether it will be ready for the return voyage!

Was thinking about Portsmouth - Caen route for our trip to LMC. Using 18T rigid.
Would welcome your opinion Mike.

Yup, got it thanks.

Trying to upload short vid of the Shapecraft bonnet flying open as it passes us on the pit wall, but no success so far! Mmm...

He certainly made a mess of the Elan...I think the initial damage was done when he went into the back of the 904...

I didn't realise that the roof was metal...I thought they were all fibreglass...

Back of the 904? Obviously that was made of sterner stuff!

Shapecraft conversion used aluminium (I think- may have been steel) rather than fibreglass for the fastback top.

Seems the vid recorded on phone is not a compatible format to upload.....
