It's the French way!

Just when you think you have cracked the system they make unusual decisions.

We had it last time around.

Sure you will be in second batch.

Just before Retromobile,

We will be organising just two teams so if anyone wants to join us in Grids 2 to 6 please send note.

Win some decent stuff and watchs were very valuable.

Understand couple of people sold theirs which covered entry fee!

....sadly every time Dad goes to have a look at it, it is in more pieces than it was the last time he went to see it, although it has been "definitely ready" for every major racing event for the last 4 years!!

Nigel,We will try and sort four teams including your two.

Note that fewer people on here are playing this year.

The team that won last year was a Ten/Tenths based job.

I have the watch !

Will start sorting it in next few days but will get the Montiverdi and Lynn cars.

Lot easier when Roger entered his fleet and we had fourteen cars rather thn this years six.

Sure we can have Wills and Bills car which should be a good bet to win the Index in Grid 3 .Elites could be a problem

Any help would be appreciated.

Paul,Will sort it.

Note for all,Remember numbers are not given until Teams sorted and advantage is that your designated pit is shared by people you know rather than strangers.

Winning with the Team is a matter of luck.Six finishers you win a prize.

No more takers for our teams?

Seems we will have seven including many cars entered by the folks who contribute on here.

The Team names will be forwarded to Paris this Thursday.

I have included the Pre War cars dispite the 'news' at the Ring from 2 42 Terrance or as he used to be called 'The Shepherd' in an earlier life.

Still not sure what that post was about but just in case...

Never sold a drive in my life and as this is my last year not about to change.

Did have two Americans in Europe last year and they didn't even buy a round so will not be doing that again,jerks!

The race cars are vanishing with the Alta to Italy to be followed hopefully by 356 GT and a Talbot.

Need to keep the rally cars as do not propose stopping that but my man Jez is a new father so need to find replacement who can do job properly.

Forgot to say the Americans were not only tight but the slowest driver you could imagine and certainly the other was the worst navigator it has ever been my misfortune to sit alongside.

so if Le Patron goes into retirement does that mean we lose the chief paddock protagonist?
