Well, if it wssn't for the fact that it was a historic race with a diesel winner, the actual race was fairly lame.
However, we got a tour of the Panoz pit on Thursday and were well chuffed to see the Farnbacher 911 lose the lead with 45 mins to go
Karting Nord seemed quieter than usual on Friday and Saturday. However, this was made up for (in a bad way) by a tw**t with an Evo who would sit in his car and rev it for about 10 minutes each night to get flame outs on the overrun. I'm sure he got a kick out of the "kids" who came to pay homage each time
Even more Danes this year and they know how to party
We popped into their massive party-tent on Friday night. Man, there were rows or Bier-Keller-esque tables and benches. With beer, fags and hotdogs/chips for sale they were well sorted ! They were going mad to some bloke called Den Skringende Skinke who had them all on the tables (except the bloke who fell off !) to his rendition of "Break my Heart". I'd not heard it before, but they seemed to all know the words.
Showers and bogs were well-maintained by the poodle family (poodle sporting a shaved look this year
).
The village wasn't bad but needs more concrete to reduce the dust problem. Those with Asthma suffer I know. Be good to see the fully finished product next year. Enjoyed watching the T.W.A.T.S. slowly making their way up the lampost on Saturday night
We were very happy with the grub at the Shanghai at Hunaudiers. Prices were very good too
Lastly, and most importantly, a massive thanks from us for the completely brilliant CA Guide. We got so much from this and it should definitely be the "bible" going forward for all Le Mansers.
