Last year late Friday afternoon was spent in the finest of LM traditions of putting the world to rights whilst sat drinking at karting Nord.
There then followed a heated argument whether it was Jamiroquai warming up at the Audi stage. Despite being shouted down by our group I said I would prove them wrong in due course.
Two hours later who should drive past past our tents on his quad bike but JK himslef. I shout "JK- do you want a beer" and he stops, says yes, gets off his bike, walks over to us and spends the next the 30 mins chatting about cars.
PS - contrary to his image portrayed in the papers he was a top bloke and committed petrol head

Nice one. Thats the great thing about Le Mans. Everyone is so friendly. Couldn't see that happening at F1.

I think it's a total disgrace that he was staying somewhere posh no doubt, yet he still couldn't be bothered to shave before going out in the morning. That would never happen with S Club 7.

I think the girls were a little under the weather as he told us he was going to give them a good seeing to . Apparently he would much rather have stayed on the campsite surrounded be thousands of sweaty drunk blokes His "gift" from Audi for doing the concert was an RS6 in a one off colour (purplish IIRC). He was even up for us taking a pi55 take shot of my mates "Colvin 911 replica" (actually a stunning 1972 911 ) [attachment deleted by admin]

I knew he got the car as someone else on the forum saw him collecting it in London last uear after the race, but I didn't realise that's all he got. I'd assumed he got a fair old wedge as well. It was good to meet the three of you on Saturday. Hopefully meet up for a beer again in June!!
