Heard a rumour that a Caterham had an off wilst drag racing on the road outside Bleu and broke a girl's leg. Anyone know anything more or is it all b0llocks? :(

No it can't have been b0llox, girls don't have them it must have been her leg.
I have performed an extensive survey and am sure of this.

can not remember it was Matron or the geography teacher.
Either way insist on a very recent medical examination by a reputable doctor before sticking your hands anywhere.
And you can find that advice on the Foreign Office website

Na, I only do it sideways and mostly around roundabouts. I understand that this bloke lost it completely somwhere near the bridge in the camping bleu area. I was told that the car was a rather distinct bright colour.

Do you know roughly when. I was camped at Bleu and was watching the burnouts for ages, but didn't hear about any accidents. Although in the old grey matter (which took a helluva beating this weekend) I have a recollection of a similar story from last year.
Not an urban myth is it?

Yes it did happen... A woman was cycling up the road and wisely stopped and got out of the way.
Unfortunately a 7 lost it and went into the ditch at the side of the road and took her with it .....
I heard that she only had a twisted ankle. A trained nurse was passing and was able to help her out as she must have been badly shaken up also. Back wheel of her bike was a bit of a mess, very lucky ..........

Last year a Ferrari lost it whilst a-burning at Indianapolis. We thought it went into the crowd and assumed the worst, but it had hit a french car coming the other way. I've an mpeg of it somewhere, it's very, very funny.

we saw the 'incident' also ... bad enough to take out the cyclist but to speed off without stopping (once the car was prised out of the ditch) is unforgivable!!!!

Oh, and I aired my grievance on the L7 forum also ...

No it was a Brit on the receiving end - virgin visit to Le mans and put off from going again.
Also after overtaking me across solid white lines, later saw the yellow / black CAT stuffed up the a**e of a lorry in the slow moving traffic jam heading north to Caen last Tuesday. Occupants looked OK but carbon fibre nose-cones don't come cheap !
