Ekona Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 I'm on call that weekend so can't get beered up I'll still stay awake as much as poss and watch the race, and at least I won't be stuck in bed this year and can hog the posh telly downstairs! 1
Guest Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 If I wasn't already getting giddy doing some packing today, that's certainly helped. Z all stickered up this year to.
jjt Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Z all stickered up this year to. Got pictures of the Zed?
Wilja Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Stickered my Z up last weekend. Can't wait. Not been for a few years.
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 I was supposed to be driving mine again this year but as someone has dropped out, we're just gonna go in one car. No point in taking two cars for 4 people.
docwra Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 Stickers this weekend but they are a secret as its massively taking the **** out of one of the boys coming Will try get a pic up before we leave, really looking forward to it now.
Ekona Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 I was supposed to be driving mine again this year but as someone has dropped out, we're just gonna go in one car. No point in taking two cars for 4 people. LM is all about the cars! We used to drive down with about 20 people in 15 different cars, massive fun road trip
docwra Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 We average no more than 2 per car as well, even with a people carrier getting involved this year, the drive is half the fun. Oh, and the burnouts
rtbiscuit Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 goody, i think i might be free that weekend :grin:

GT Driver Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Are Porsche back racing in the LM series this year? Watched the two 'Truth in 24' documentaries a couple of months back. Worth a watch for anybody who hasn't seen them. Edited June 13, 2013 by GT Driver
Dynamic Turtle Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Doing my first LM this year with a couple of friends, looking forward to seeing the race, less enamoured about paying £250 for camping and £70 for a ticket! Bloody rip-off... Edited June 13, 2013 by Dynamic Turtle

Bloody rip-off... Try the British GP then..??. Bit more expensive than Le Mans and it lasts 1.35 hours.. :scare:
Ekona Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 Doing my first LM this year with a couple of friends, looking forward to seeing the race, less enamoured about paying £250 for camping and £70 for a ticket! Bloody rip-off... Rip off?! It's an absolute bargain mate. 5 days of action including qualy, pit walks on Friday, a whole 24 hours of racing, live music (which isn't great this year, EW&F anyone?), plus the best race atmosphere in the world.
WhackyWill Posted June 14, 2013 Author Posted June 14, 2013 Another tip for Le Mans is take a portable radio and keep it tuned to Radio Le Mans Race reports every hour, Interviews with drivers, and good music. :thumbs: http://www.24h-lemans.com/lp/sunday-general-enclosure_6.html?utm_source=GOOGLE&utm_medium=SEM1&utm_content=TEXT1&utm_campaign=FEV_13
Ekona Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 ^^^ Absolu-friggin-lutely. Or Kangaroo TV (or whatever they call it these days), not cheap though. The guys who do RLM are superb, and get funnier as the night wears on and the tiredness hits them
docwra Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 Its bargainous, the British GP is about 5 times as much for 16 times less action, and thats just the race Dont know how you managed to pay £250 for camping though, the most expensive pitches are about £100? Music over the last few years has been great as well, Jamiroquai, Stranglers, Razorlight ........ an EWF tribute band isnt going to cut it for me though
WhackyWill Posted June 15, 2013 Author Posted June 15, 2013 Good Trailer for Le Mans 2013. http://www.dailymoti...to#.UbcCFPtwbrc A new Le Mans Video..very good.
WhackyWill Posted June 17, 2013 Author Posted June 17, 2013 Good Trailer for Le Mans 2013. http://www.dailymoti...to#.UbcCFPtwbrc Check out Live TV from Le Mans.
choptop Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Le Mans 24Hr is a must at least once in a Petrolhead`s life. Should be made compulsary including learning the skill of wall building with stubbie lager bottles 1
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 This is way too early to be getting up for anything else but Le Mans. 4 hours sleep
