Title: Bonjour! - just joined
Post by: Kev_mk3 on November 27, 2007, 04:56:41 pm
Hello Folks, Im Kev and 23. I live in Chester up in the North West of England :) I am car nuts and have been going to Lemans for the last 4 years :) my dad how ever has missed it once in the last 25 years :lol:

I am looking to drive over this year with a good friend and stay at the whole weekend at track inc the drivers parade on Friday :) usually I stay at my parents not far from the track but I think its time to experience it all :)


Looking forward to speaking to other enthuziasts :)


Kev

Welcome Kev,
I too also have car nuts, and if I may give you some hard won advice, you're better off on a forum that specialises in chronic medical conditions rather than this one. There are some good ones about, but don't get mixed up with the animal ones, - following instructions sometimes turns out to involve a lot of guesswork.
I find that this time of year is the worst, it must be something to do with the temperature or humidity or something, I'm sitting here typing this with my ar*e in a bucket of WD40, and that bast*rd behind the counter at the chemist is just laughing all the way to the bank.
Good luck.
H

Kev,

Welcome to the forum and don't be shy about taking part and posting - there's plenty of banter and humour, and you can gather from H's post the odd one fixated on something or other different!  Keep you eye on the forum particualrly as we head towards LE Mans time for the latest of what is happening where,

Thanks mark, I have to say H’s post did amuse me a lot lol :lol: I shall take a look about :) I first spotted the club last year near the Lemans as I was going to sell a camping ticket but didn’t join!

Hi Kev, I will be making the pilgramage from Chester again this year as I have done for the last 10. Next year I will be on the track as a race marshal, before the first chicane on the Mulsanne.
Just finished a 22month restoration on an original quattro so will be taking that along for the trip!!
Welcome to the forum, loads of good info and banter on here !!

Mid Jan for a meet up would be good, at least the 6 month countdown would have started :)

Fine by me, how about others ??


Title: Re: Bonjour! - just joined
Post by: Fran on December 10, 2007, 06:34:54 pm
Suits me fine too.

Now to pick a date - I am away weekends of 19th and 26th Jan so 11th or 12th would suit me best.  (Could also probably do Friday 18th if that suits others better).

12th would be best for me as I may be working nights during the week.
