Was that 2004? If it was, you're referring to the Taurus-entered Lola-Caterpillar. I think I was faster on foot than that car....

Dear all,

Shame, shame, shame on me... as mentionned above by Paul, I'll miss this one again... I didn't even had the time to pay a visit to the works on the track, when the companies who did them invited me...

But the worst is that I won't be able to meet you on thursday eve, as I initialy planned... professionnal appointements stick me in Nantes, 200 kms south of Le Mans...

2008 is already toasted too... I prefer non to mention it.

"Hope make live" (probably not English, but you'll never imagine how low my English skills went in 18 months without TT) : I'll be there in 2009. And with a little bit of luck, I'll do my "Bononi" (the old farts will undertstand) in September/October 2008, to prepare the 2009 season.

Three years off, you'll have plenty to tell to me !

But remember : I don't forget you, I'm just off for a moment, and, stick in my classroom, I'll think of you at the TT meeting time, and at the start (I'll secretly rise my glass of water , and my class mates will certainly think that I've lost my mind, ah ah !).

Love you all

Fab (not dead !)

Well!

It's good to hear from you mon ami, but I am very disappointed to hear about next year - despite my specific email instructions!!

But seriously, keep in touch (not like me!) and make sure that you reconsider your 2008 decision at every available opportunity - surely there must be some small chance?

Anyway, we will most certainly raise a glass to you on Saturday - and you can be sure to see the evidence on here or in your email in-box soon after!

Best wishes.

Ayse

Shouldn't we test the champagne first - to make sure it's good enough?

That's a ten foot YELLOW, INFLATABLE, HELIUM-FILLED pin, floating approximately 25 feet above the ground.

See you there....

made me laugh that. As a fellow North American, you too must have also found the name funny, as in "Ford Taurus" (kind of a mediocre Ford sedan over here for you Europeans, it had a reputation of less than stellar build quality, my sisiter inlaw once had a Taurus station wagon, was crap; a neighbor had one too, crap too)

Too bad you can't make it, hopefully you will be able to view some of it on the télé like many of us. All the best with what is keeping you in Nantes et tout la reste aussi.
