Look forward to seeing the event pics in 2013 Steve

Hey, I've got a good excuse now, a little annoying though.

Bought a new camera with SDHC and guess what my laptop can't read them can only recognise regular SD so need to buy an adaptor so maybe up just in time for Le Mans 2012

I had a fantastic four days at Le mans but weather a little too warm for me, I would have liked to have been with the other club members but i had booked my package though speed chills before Stephen had organised the club trip. GTA ran there and back faultlessly. I didn’t meet Mark there but hope he gets well soon. Hope to meet some of the members @ the ACE café on the 19th July.

Bit of a boring trip then!

If it's any consolation, it's not just Alp's that break down in LeMans as this pic shows at our campsite for the 24hr. Missed the St Saturnin Great British welcome because we had a few probs starting the 'Vet! Hope Mark gets back OK. Hope you got some pics of those nurses for us to view in 2013

Is that '10 plate Diablo a kit car of some description?

Why not use some club funds to buy a NEW hosting laptop ...

Is that '10 plate Diablo a kit car of some description

Yes it is - Original body panels and glass (80% of vehicle o.e. Lamborghini) so Registered as a Lamborghini, BMW V12 engine and Ford brakes.

...what a mad mad weekend....first time to Le Mans and the sight of a '70 prototype and full speed at night is one I wont forget in a hurry........as with all RAOC events ive been to, great people, great times, great dramas

Whats even better, thanks to Tony and John Law, i got home with a better gearbox than I started with!

Till next time.....

Home!
Home and in one piece, just about, a few problems to get sorted out and a bit of a lifestyle wake up maybe.....

Just like to say what a great help everyone was on the trip for me, you all know what part you played so I wont go into details, just a big thank you. Not sure how I would have got on if it were just me and Riku.
The care I got in that hospital was just out of this world and they only reluctantly let me go in the end.
and just to clear one matter up: Tony, Fit, yes but Blonde no!

Hi Mark

Could'nt upload pics, but here is a link to mouseys facebook page so you can see for yourselves

Mark

Pleased to hear you have made it back after what must have been a very worrying time.

Clearly, sunburn wasn`t good enough for you!

PS. add my gearbox gremlins to the Club list - travelled back overnight on Sunday to avoid traffic and too many gear changes.

I saw this on Pistonheads. It looks like this Ferrari owner appreciated your cars (and the fact that you stopped to help). I am of course presuming it was you lot!



''You know what, isn't it fantastic how everyone stops to help each other? When the Fezza went wrong a couple of guys in Ranault Alpines pulled over to see if we were ok - sadly they couldn't do much as they didn't have radweld/barrs etc but the gesture was enough.

Not sure if you're reading this fellas, but thanks! Oh, and your cars sounded REALLY good as you 'gently' pulled away! V6 Turbo's are loud with little or no silencers!''

Sounds like Mr Taylor!
