Title: Pre Qualifying - photo link
Post by: Steve Pyro on April 27, 2004, 11:47:22 PM
It was great to see everyone over the PQ weekend.  The weather was first class - a hint of things to come for June?

Plenty of beer was supped and photos taken, here's a link to my offerings -

Oh, I didn't get around to seeing Felix although I understand there were a few vomit vans on the far side of the circuit.
And thanks to Paula and Jane  :-* I'm still trying to wash off the lipstick.

Bit OTT. Steve may be just a little effete in a sort of mild "Hello Sailor" way, but "camp" is stretching the point.

Oi, what's this casting nastersiums about my character.
I'll have you know I'm an officer and a gentleman with strips on my sleeve.

TonyT - the camp is P16 (a car park for the June race and where the bungee jump was last year)

Mr Brown, apologies for that.
I had a rather pressing domestic situation to attend to.  I had attempted to cross the channel with my feline companion but the customs people took offence to his infestation of fleas.

So, I took him off to the local vets to have it sorted.  Plus, I tried to slip the vet a fiver to have the little furry chaps balls done but he was wise to my plan.

I see the little sod has shown up on this forum now, no Whiskas for him tonight.

I'm off to the cash and carry for some batter and a big sack of flea powder.

No gaffer tape needed. I think it's marker tape to identify the cars. The no 89 had a stripe of ugly green while the no 96 car was black.

I thought that gaffer tape was an integral part of all TVR car's make up. take a look at last year's entry - note the high tech light cover mounting.

Hi Steve, I guess we placed our tent just 25 meters next to yours. A better spot than yours if it comes to watching the 'Audi A8L parking #16-rally' of the TWATS  :D.

Anyway posted my pics on the web too: http://www.planetlemans.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&wrap=ยด04%20Le%20Mans%20test%20days%20test%20session&Itemid=78 (http://www.planetlemans.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&wrap=%C2%B404%20Le%20Mans%20test%20days%20test%20session&Itemid=78)

Stirling performance by all concerned.  I have to disagree with your sentiments Mr. Zarse.  Mr. Brown seemed quite unapologetic for his actions, last night, but I was left wondering who in h**l managed to piss right over the wall.  That's some bladder power.  :o
