Le Mans 2014

Do we know whether Alpine will have a car running at Le Mans next year? If so will there be any deals for RAOC members?

I expect most of us will be at the Classic in 2014. It's one not to be missed.

Hmm

I can only do one of them and the Chateau ( ) is booked for the main race.

If you go to

the Alpine A450 is on the entry list. The ACO always like to see local French entries so I would be amazed if it didn't get a start.

Although I enjoyed the classic in 2012 (despite terminal gearbox failure which meant the GTA came home on the back of a flatbed) I am choosing to go the the main race this year - hoping with Porsche and Toyota stronger it might be a close race in LMP1.

Club might be going to Silverstone to see the car in action again -

(although the LMP2 cars raced on Saturday last year so check the schedule / entry list before buying tickets)

Hopefully a bit less rain than last year

the Signatech Alpine updates are in the Motorsport and trackdays thread.

Unless it clashes with the wife's 25th wedding anniversary!

Just paid my last instalment on the glamping at bleu nord, pre assembled tents, catered and dedicated shower block, hopefully not too rough....
Going in an mx5 though....

Not my MX5...but as I have a Smart Roadster too, I do deserve the jibe....

I have booked for the main race - driving over Friday dead early, via Eurotunnel, staying overnight Friday in Alencon then parking in Rouge, staying in Alencon again on the way back. My mobile number is 07917041230 - give me a call on Saturday morning - maybe we can meet up?

My brother and i have made the journey for the first time this year but unfortunately we couldn't get the gta in working order so we have his Avantime instead. Staying in Beausejour which i reckon is like glastonbury for petrol heads.....madness so far! Hope anyone here has a good weekend.
