i think the classic is now annual, where it was once owned/organised by the classic car people it is now run by peterauto a commercial organisation and with le mans desperate for money generated by these events there will be little resistance to it happening every year. The days of 30k classic car people turning up are long gone and for the aco and le mans itself this must rank above the other events at the circuit for generating much needed income.
I was very surprised this year how the demographics of the classic has changed the english now very much in the minority and french making up the majority of the campers and day visitors this year
GT6 is online now
