Looks like our zone representative, Jann Mardenborough (Jann on here) isn't having too good a day. Currently lying last of the cars still officially 'running', with the team's other car next to last.

I was there this weekend with a few cars for the McLaren parade lap:

The parade lap was supposed to be limited to 50mph by Yannick Dalmas in the P1 GTR. Speeds of 280kph were seen by some drivers :eek:

Drove through Le Mans last Wednesday. Diversions everywhere as they picked up after the race weekend, and ended up entering the Mulsanne straight right by the gravel trap where the class leading Porsche crashed out near the end, and then straight on at the Mulsanne hairpin.
I originally had things planned to be in that area a week earlier to catch some of the qualifying, but as is often the case, things didn't quite follow the plan.

sorry for the late reply, great weekend as always. ye the Mclaren's looked AMAZING

the weekend costs around £500 but with our group we pay into a pot and everything comes out it i.e. tunnel, breakdown cover, fuel, insurance extra if required, food for 5days, BEER for 5days most important and obviously your ticket. not bad really considering if you didn't take any money with you you'd be fine without it lol.

saw one E30 M3 Black on the way back, ended up in England at same time as us so may be a member on here Reg: D 53 BMV
it was a D marked plate so where ever that is from lol
