 ;D

hey spidey just tried to log on to radio ............no joy any ideas???

same here, unfortunately no, listening to Radio Le Mans at present, it may be just a glitch?

Do we know if RLM is providing coverage?

I don't think it is, the info came from an Autosport via e-mail.  I believe there has been a break in the Autosport sponsorship for RLM.  This is the e-mail received.

The third Le Mans Classic festival starts this Friday (July 7) and will be represented by over 400 of the world's great sports cars set to compete on the famous Le Mans track.
The event is held every other year and the 2006 is expected to be bigger and better in terms of cars, races and attendance. In 2004 the Le Mans Classic event was attended by over 55,000 people, with 10's of thousands of others following the weekends activities via TV and internet.

The following prestigious marques will all be in attendance; Alfa Romeo, AC, Bentley, Bugatti, Ferrari, Jaguar, Lotus and Porsche to name but a few. As well as the great track action, their will be static displays surrounding the paddock for public enjoyment.

GOOD NEWS IT IS NOW WORKING.

AND HOLLY SAMOS IS BROADCASTING TOO ;)

It is sure gonna beat the hell out of listening to Steve Wright in the afternoon. They are playing The Who so that's a good start

Holly is back :majorswoon: :)

She does nothing for. I can never forgive her for being one of Chris Evans fawning arse licking syncophants a few years ago. She would have gained more credibility by selling her soul to the devil than sucking up to the annoying ginger tw**t

had no joy getting it this morning but listening in now. They seem to be having technical issues here and there though

It definitely isn't the same people behind it as RLM - although Graham Tyler (Hol called him Taylor!!) and that Champion chap are there.

 I think the RLM people are working with other publishers as Haymarket backed out of it.

Le Mans Classic is a H'market thing or done with them as that's where the promo for it has come - I had three emails from them....

Holly doesn't do anything for me either but she's fairly innocuous - Chris Evans posse aside (I said 'posse')

yup its working now !!!!!
 ;D ;D ;D

They've just admitted no actual race commentary.... ::)

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy why dat?????? just been looking thro the sky tv guide nothing on motors tv either wosgoinon????????????????? ??? ??? ??? :'(

I forgot to take my small portable radio with me this weekend, but found out that Paul Truswell was providing the English commentary over the main tannoy at the circuit so it wasn't needed.  The 'RLM' service was ok for the little of it I listened to, but they didn't seem to be providing (much?) commentary of the track action.

Got to see the fragrent Ms Samos in person as she was eating in the same establishment on Saturday evening.

Didn't think RLM was providing the service?  The info I had it was our chums at Autosport.

Hence the use of "RLM" in quotes... :) 

and that 'means'  "means"? ???

If you had Paul Trusswell on the PA then you had a better service than the rest of us stuck at home.

The Fragrant Ms Samos - who does have a great voice - hadn't taken the time to work out how to pronounce anyone's names or the names of the cars. She was barely up to hosting the music bits. I don't care how easy on the ear (and the eye) she might be.

As to the rest, I thought Graham Tyler was his usual efficient self. Who was that other bloke?
No commentary - couldn't they have gone back to using spotters? and inexplicably off they air when they should have been on.   Why did they bother going - I assume Castrol was paying?!? judging by all the ads and what not.

I don't know who was talking on RLM at the time, but they displayed a surprising level of ignorance about Castrol.

First Commentator: I love the smell of Castro R...

Second Comm : Oh yes so do I. Does anyone still use it?

Fist Comm: Yes, sixty cars (plat 1) have just gone past you chucking it out the back. (smog haze and chip shop smell hangs heavy in the air)

Second Comm: Oh...

Twit!

Motors TV were present during the weekend so hopefully something will be shown soon.

The radio coverage was of the actual races was abysmal - although the interview pieces added a touch of colour. The trackside PA was far more informative - though nowhere near as funny as Holly trying to pronounce Nic Minassian  :)

"That other bloke" is a neighbour of mine.  Found him running round the paddock on several occasions, admitting he knew very little about some of the cars! Good eh? ::)
