Title: Classic Le Mans 2005
Post by: Andy Zarse on February 17, 2005, 12:25:02 pm
Is in Japan!   :(

THE FIRST LE MANS CLASSIC JAPAN: 28-29-30 OCTOBER 2005
The idea behind Le Mans Classic Japan is to organise a biennial meeting in alternate years to Le Mans Classic.
The Japanese event will be on a slightly smaller scale, and will enable Japanese collectors to become acquainted with the French version. The winner of each grid will be automatically selected for the 2006 edition of Le Mans Classic.

Japan and Historic Racing
The Japanese love historic racing. The number of collectors is constantly on the increase and they have a wide selection of cars (Abarth, Alpine, Alfa Romeo, Ferrari etc). In addition, the Le Mans 24 Hours, the greatest endurance race in the world, exercises a tremendous fascination on the Japanese. Taking all this into account the Cox Inc. and SAVH directors came up with the idea of combining their know-how to organise Le Mans Classic in Japan in order to provide the country’s collectors with the opportunity to race their cars in an exceptional meeting, and then think about coming to compete in Europe.

All the way to Japan to watch a historic car race?  Err...no thank you.  If I went to Japan for a motor racing event it would be the Suzuka 8 Hours.
