Chris is one of the good guys . Let me come over to his worshop one saturday to check out a gemini blue car in the flesh before I chose my colour.
I wonder if he's got time to tune my MFI before Le Mans...

Also, for interesting 'camping' tips check out http://www.beermountain.com

Who's bringing the swimming pool?

Hi Folks,
Who will be camping at Maison-Blanche this year, do you know if they will have showers nearby?

Although I have been to several Le Mans before with PCGB, this is my first Classic and based on all the feedback and reviews I've heard so far just can't wait

Regards
Cheers Beaky

I think most of us are camping @ maison blanche :)

They do have a shower block on site... although best to get a shower very early in teh morning or in the afternoon if you want to avoid th que's :)

Thats a great guide... I've just fwd'd to the other half so's she knows what to expect! :alien:

Re campsites again - as a late booker I was allocated Karting Nord campsite. Presumably there may be a few other DDK'ers there too who also booked late - anyone?

It will be handy for the karting track anyway!... DDK Karting Challenge could be on the cards :?: :wink:

Am I the only one who hasn't heard anything recently regards the camping passes etc?
I know I've had a booking confirmation but I'm gonna get nervous soon if I don't hear anything more

I haven't received anything other than than a booking confirmation, I wasn't worried but know I am :shock:

I have also recieved nothing through the post, only confirmation by email that the camping and tickets have been "validated" whatever that means.

So I rang Porsche club France who said that tickets should be issued by the end of June
