Piglet and I go to about 4-6 24 hour races each year, she beat me two years back she did 24's on consecutive weekends twice! Le Mans then 2cv, Le Mans Classic and Spa. We had a nice holiday with 24 hours races at each end.
This years "plan" Le Mans Moto, 2CV Snetterton, Le Mans, and Spa. Is anybody else doing multiple 24's?

These days just the one. Though this will be my 26th time. I have done two or may be three in one year before now. But to be honest I not fund any of the others come close to Le Mans.

We like Spa it's very different from Le Mans, we go out for a week and spend time relaxing. I'm usually working at Le Mans so we don’t get much time to ourselves, but we started going out with each other at Le Mans so its special to us.

Getting to 3 24's this year, Le Mans, the Classic (is that a true 24h race?) and Spa. I would be going to the 2CV's at Snetterton, but darn holiday is in the way!  |

24 hr 2CVs sounds a giggle....  Anyone know where the 24 hrs power boat race is held? Have tried googling but doesnt come up with anything useful. I think its on a river somewhere in France! (natch) |

These are planned for this year: LM 24hs, Spa 24hs, 24hs 2CV (maybe), 25hs VW Funcup and probably Silverstone. Unfortunately, I'm not going to the Ring 24hs this time because that's at the same weekend as LM. Mhh, did I miss one ?

I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

I know it makes sense, Steve. It always does. But unfortunately I'm already booked for some other fun for the 8th & 9th July.  |
