Guys and Girls

Just got back from Le Mans and had a bloody brilliant time! Saw loads of Scoobs but no owners so didn't get a chance to chat. If you haven't been before you must go next year. It's the ultimate petrol head fest and should appear in everybody's social calender.

I've posted a couple of pics below to try and recreate the atmosphere.

Here's the start of the beer bottle wall. Suffice to say, by the end of the weekend it was much bigger but I was too drunk to take a picture. Good job I was a passenger in someone elses car.


Here's a guy from the south west doing a burnout on Mad Friday. Childish? Maybe, but hugely entertaining nonetheless.


Went to the Champagne Bar at 5pm on Saturday (where were you Scoop?) and bumped into Vicki Butler-Henderson who is a top lady. Why?
1. She drinks beer
2. She loves Imprezas
3. She's happiest when driving sideways


All in all, a thoroughly good weekend.

Cheers
Kav

Nice one Kav -- but I don't understand why there's no rain on any of the photos! Didn't go this year but my broth-in-law did, he said it p-i-s-s-e-d all Sat & Sun ...

Hi Brickboy
Your brother's right - it was wetter than an otter's pocket for most of the weekend. These pics were taken in between the various deluges.

Cool

Hi Kav,
Sorry m8, was working in the pit lane most of the time taking piccies, and when I wasn`t there I was being `wined and dined` by either Bentley, MG or Audi (tough life huh!)
Top weekend though

Cheers

Scoop - Tough life buddy! Still, let's make a date for next year. If you had your camera in the pit lane, did you get any pics of the Tropicana girls in their red bikinis? If so, please forward them to me immediately

Scott - Highly likely mate but it's all a bit of a blur.

Cheers
Kav
