First time to see a GT40 win, so figure it out. Many years with a young family when i didn't go, but too many to think about working out.

A measly 4 times so far (pathetic compared to all you stalwarts), 1st one was to see Bentley win in 2002 - previously was one of the "I always wanted to go crowd" - got me hooked but work and family stuff kept me from coming every year. This year will be 2 in a row though so heres hoping to many more in the future.

Tony must have have been on the beer in 2002. That said, it is a much more patriotic interpretation of the race.

Answer to the question: never, still blocked by my university degree and a chronical lack of money (and still being under-20). Once that's over and a steady job is secure though...

1980 was my first, so 2011 will be my 32nd. Missed one to do a classic.
So thats about 128 nights camping there if I assume 4 nights every time. All a blur now, but I think I have the route thru Rouen licked! |

Gonna be my seventh time this year, got a late entry as marshal from the ACO (well done guys!) but I'm set to go!
A little bit different this year, will be "running" the Bar123 as a temporary loungesite for fellow marshals & guests at the campingsite close to our turn (@post 123 next to the karting Alain Prost). It will even feature a semi-olympic swimming pool (in case we get tropical temps!)  Come and see us if you wish, there'll be plenty of relaxation! |

Last time I was at poste 123 (2009) you guys had a swimming pool without even trying. I think Maurice almost drowned in his tent!
We'll be over to visit from poste 61. keke |

Don´t know about the those rules though. But having a pool at the scene is one thing, filling it up is another, we might put it into the trailer for A) easier fill up and B) do a little tour with the car.
