Norman, am I right in recalling seeing you and your Teal at Le Mans in 1999 / 2000 on a Continental Car Tours trip?
If a remember I did the trip with one of the Kit Car Mags organised with Ian Hyne and a friend of his Guy (cannot remember his sirname) once we stayed on the Blue camp site and for a few years at Spay although I thought that was before 99/00.
Trouble is over all the years I have done LeMans in veriouse cars and ways, some times I have done 100% my own thing other times joining in for some things but still going of on my own when it suits me.
One year I remember watching the start at Arnage Corner, next to me there was a French familly with tables, chairs, food and wine. The farther asked in his brocken English was I 'Monsieur Bugatti' having recognised me from other years. I said I was so he offered me a glass of wine. Then the cars came round on their first lap they opend a bottle of Champagne, how could I refuse! Later in the evening I went away from the curcuit for a meal with some friends, telling them of my French aquantence another group should walk in and shouted out 'HALLO NORMAN'
