Classic Le Mans 2008

Hi,

Ive enrolled my Fiat 124 into the "Happy Few" enclosure at this excellent event and will be driving the 530miles in convoy with a couple of my friends (a 1978 Fiat Spider and a 1972 TVR Vixen) from Yorkshire in the United Kingdom to the event in early July.

I just wonderd if anybody else was going, in their Fiat or classic, to show, enjoy or race and if anybody knows which Fiat clubs will be present.

Heres the link to this exciting event: http://www.lemansclassic.com/uk/index.html

If so I look forward to seeing you there!

WOW That looks like the ultimate vintage car race.I havent missed a 12 Hours Of Sebring in many years,and love endurance racing.Watching those classic cars coming down the Mulsanne would be great.Do you also go over for the 24 hour event ? Craig

Sadly not, my heart lays on the classics, more fun to watch and still just as competitive but without the huge backing of sponsorship and manufactureres money.

We camped in 2006 next to the track and throughout the night the different roaring sounds of those engines passing was like a lullaby to a child for me and my friends, pure excellence!
