Off to the Le Mans Classic this weekend

Was going in a Morgan .... but it is not ready so will be using my own car. Not too dissapointed there.

Great weekend of classic racing. Experiencing classic Bentleys as they race flat out through the night is magical.

There are quite alot of old 911s going and I was hoping to go in mine too - but I've too much on at the moment. Hope to go next time (which is 2012 I guess unfortunately).

Enjoy - and post plenty of pics!

EDIT - just noticed some 70s Capris are eligible.

Really wanted to take the 924 this year but I have a presentation in London until 5pm Friday

It is a great weekend.

Yup, there were a few Capri RS2600/3100s last time.

I took this with my old pocket camera in 2008 - love the sounds. I think in one shot I even got the car with a turbine jet engine.

Taking my better pocket camera this time, will get some more pics.
