Who, Where, When... 2006

[chop456]

As a change we're taking a 1965 Cadillac convertible and a TR6 

At least if the Triumph breaks down you can put it in the Cadillac's trunk. 

EXCELLENT idea putting this info in the guide.

We'll be flying into CDG at 0900 Thursday and driving to the track with a food/beer stop somewhere along the way.  Camping in Karting Nord and trekking back and forth to Maison Blanche quite a bit, I'd think.

Can't wait.

You know it's getting near when you start making dinner reservations.
Purdu and I will  be tucking into Le Mans Burgers at that time.
Perhams we should meet up for an apperatife

All you have to worry about is being downwind of us on Sunday morning

[garyfrogeye]

The dust filter will protect us!

[Lorry]

I hope it contains active charcoal.  There are too many Merguez and garlic sausages about

The main KKOC team will be on the 7 am Speedferry so should be in MB by lunchtime Monday.  Blue Mazda estate, dark Merc saloon (Coupe was promised), and green Cavalier. 

Advance guard will be a campervan with a green dolphin thing down the side and the red Pug 406 with the caravan.

Sorry for the delay in responding, looking forward to seeing you in the square on Friday.

Well, as Gary hasn't quite formalised it (you just can't get the staff you know!) A combined force from "TeamMidgetAndSpriteClub" (HA Chapter) of two Frogeyes (maybe) and three Midgets will be sharing a handy corner pitch with the "Team VW/Audi Techs opposite the famous Cobra Rancho, just marginally downslope of BobU and his merry pyrotechnicians-maniacs. Pool and Gazebos are booked as are the nylon Country Mansions with Patio and Colonial Verandas. Ideal for sundowners to catch the marvellous evening light of La Sarthe while the chef prepares the Best Little Chilli outside Texas.

I hope that at least one of the team-VWAT guys will be bringing his V8 Moggy Traveller along but until it gets its necessary shakedown mileage he may use the tried and trusted Beemer.

our first incursion is likely to be Lunchtime on Thursday followed up by the London contingent whenever Gary, Bob, Toby and Nick get off the Speedferry on Friday.

(incidentally Bob's Late Model Midget is in PracticalPerformanceCar this week, the EFi beauty)

I also hope not to have to drive from the motorway outside Rouen all the way to the circuit without clutch hydraulics this year...

 

I hope Steve has plenty of tape left...

Usual crew on Karting Nord, with the MGA and a Lotus Elan, plus whatever company car Nick and Richard arrive in.   Plus two of my lads with an Escort RS Turbo.   Plus probably a bundle of chaps and chapesses from Marham in a minibus.   Arriving Tuesday via Dover/Calais.   Hopefully we'll be in the usual place (albeit minus the Brethren next door this year - MBers, do you really know what you are letting yourselves in for......I guess we'll just have to make our way over to MB on the Friday night to see if they are behaving themselves)

Fran I doubt if youll miss us this year, almost an overdose of Spridgets instead of just Gary's and mine.

But of course both you and Smokie are always welcome to join us, day, night or in the soft light of eveningtime.

 

[smokie]

Err...Team Smokie. Well, just Mark 'n' me this year...

Speedferries Sunday 11 June sometime around 11. Arriving at the Golden Triangle on Maison Blanche early evening and departing to catch Speedferries evening sailing on Sunday 18 June.

No caravan this year. A nine berth tent though, plus gazebo and pool...

Somehow the KGB numbers have swelled to a massive (for us) ten this year!

Lawnmower Man, Brick, and myself will be arriving late morning Weds 14th.
The Swiss contingent I'm guessing will be with us on Thursday.
Goldfinger and 1 x virgin should be with us Friday if the motor survives the trip from Calais.  Good luck Andy.   
Baby Schu and 3 x virgins...I have no idea.  Tom, do you know their travel plans?   

We will be pitched on BSJ again this year - when will the ACO get it right and put us on MB for God's sake  - although I doubt some of us will be spending much time there.   

If you want to come and see the Lawnmower Man in action or just pop in for a cold one look for the United Nations, Kiwi, Swiss, Union flags.
