Its probably been done before ? but does it matter.

See where you fall in the CA population, le mans virgin or life time achiever ?

I've got a long way to go (4 in 2004) and still can't name more than 2 bars & 3 corners!

I'll be there 'til they screw the lid down!

last year it was one of those vague, boys things I was too skint for when I was a boy. Then two Novembers ago a mate said he was going next (last!!) year in his Westfield so I said OK then I'll come too in my Midget.

Turned out that he finagued (dropped out so to speak) but I had made the commitment at last so was determined to go out of annoyance at him.

My wife dropped out too, "its a bloke thing" she said so my mate Nick came too. Cut some of the costs so that helped.

We arrived in the rain just before the race, stuck up the tent on the edge of the carpark and went off in search of the noise.

That was IT!!! I will always be back...

2004 is my seventeenth. I'm getting bored of it a bit now and I don't think I'll bother again.

I called in on the way back from the Crimea, second time around. The first was just before that asteroid incident, the fallout and 40 year winter spoilt it a bit if you ask me, and anyway, things just weren't the same without the dinosaurs.
They tried it with cows later on, but they didn't really measure up.

This will be number 25, thats about 32% of all the races run god help me & I'm still only 38.  

Seen Grp4, 5 & 6 all the grp C races. Can't  recall them now, they have all merged into one.

As I normally spend 5 days there every june, that's about 125 days camped there.
