I wont Lie, It was Awsome, Le Mans is an event that every racing Fan should do atleast once! Back in SA again. Did advanced driving at the lotus factory on their newly refurbished FIA spec track, that was a really great day as well. The racing and car events in Europe are amazing! well worth exploring if you ever holiday there...
From fastest to slowest:
Birkin race car, not much is standard
Lotus Elise 111R, almost everything is standard
'75 SP 1600 with a few mods
B8 A4 Avant tdi, towing made easy
It's been a while, I last drove through there in 1989, didn't stop. Last time I stopped there was in 1985 with a ride safe banner around my neck. But I wager I'd rather go to Lagos, thanks...
Hey, John-oh, next time I go to Sodwana, I'll post it here on the forum, who knows, we might get a ACVWSA meeting at 2 mile reef at 12m...
I'm also getting gatvol of being away from home, but what's a guy to do? Got to pay the bills right, and bravely battling ahead to early retirement, which is being delayed year for year as long as this f@&* recession coninues... bugger... Talk about continuously moving goal posts...
But, what the f@&* am I complaining about, I have a great job, and usually several waiting in the wings (which effectively scuppers my futile and infantile hopes for a gap year everytime) and I am in good enough health to work... and dive... hehe...
I suggested a gap year for myself to my daughter the other day and she looked at me like I got two heads... I said "What?" and she shook her head sadly...
I still say "WHAT?" I might just get around to greasing my front beam...
Im not gonna ask what front beam you wanna grease.....
