I'll investigate - thank you!

Pausing is what I do. Do wish RLM would edit their podcast so that each one starts exactly on the hour. Though it is worth the extra effort to keep syncing the audio.

That's why they were doing a countdown every now and then to help people line up RLM with TV.

After arriving home from the LM24. I got sick, kidney stones, and this forum helped me very much getting my mind focused on something else but pain. Now feeling better, I find myself in a post Le Mans depression and find it even hard to respond to the 'talk' on tenths.
I feel so sad, hope it goes by soon.

[Aysedasi]

I know the feeling very well, my friend. 5 weeks ago today I was waiting for James at the ferry terminal ready for the journey to France. Incredible how the time has flown. Glad you're feeling better.

After all the excitement of the last month or so the down is always going to happen, but on the plus side we can start planning for the even bigger and even better 2015. less than 11 months to go now

Blimey, there was something in the air and/or the water at Le Mans this year in this aspect, I had the exact same issue on the Saturday after the race. :/

[GT6]

It must have been something you both eat, now where did you both eat while at the circuit, oh yes the meet, perhaps it was a reaction to the cheese
But seriously glad you are both better now

Well my post Le Mans depression has let me to being Nampy Pampy at a hotel 20min from the Nürburgring.
Will be going to the circuit for some laps tomorrow in a Renault Megane RS 265 .

Well, almost a week ago now, and I can honestly say, I will go back - and so will my brother!
It's worth the trip, and if you don't want to risk your own car rent one that's set up for it

Let's see if ESM/Ed Brown follow through and actually enter the big race next year - http://sportscar365.com/lemans/wec/b...ng-to-le-mans/

Encouraging signs though recently. I just hope they have a good race at CotA as that could go a long way to getting next year confirmed.

Thought I would share this one, it is brilliant.

[GT6]

Very clever video but not sure i actually liked it, would not watch it again

[Simmi]

I think it's great - but could have benefited from a bit of colour.

This one for example is much better IMO - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gdCPi7Ffds

[Aysedasi]

Clever - but the format doesn't work for me, I'm afraid......

I agree with you Andrew

[whitemr2]

It actually is a photograph slideshow and not a video. Still think it's rather nice.

[CTD]

Well, I have begun running a bit, and is going to compete in a small run here in the end of August.
To my big surprise it's going very well with this "project" and therefor looking for a bigger goal than just that single run.
I therefor thought about combining Le Mans with running and run as much of La Sarthe as possible.
As we all know large parts are open, but of course from the Porsche curves and up to Tertre Rouge, I will need to take the old circuit road through Maison Blanche up to the grand entrance.
My question is, from the grand entrance, up to the end of the Tertre Rouge, on the outside, is it possible to return to the Mulsanne straight from the gate located at Tertre Rouge when the public roads are open? (of course I will be carrying my ticket)
The gate is this
If anyone has experience in running Circuit de La Sarthe, I'm glad to hear from you .
Cheers
Mathias / CTD

[GT6]

Mathias, the gate at Tertre Rouge is actually on the old d138 (the mulsanne) so just come out and turn right, small roundabout less than 100metres and then you are on the mulsanne as you know it, I have read about people doing the circuit run on some other forums but I prefer to do it the way it should be done, in a fast car

[Aysedasi]

You'll never get the fast car through that gate, Simon............

And even if he does, it needs to be fast enough to get away from the Gendarmes
