LeMans 2017 Pictures & Stories

I just ran into Chip Ganassi in Pointe Du Huc, Normandy of all places. I was wearing my GT gear. He took time out of his tour to speak with me. What a great guy.

Gentleman,

Peggy and I picked up DBK in Paris and had a nice drive to Le Mans. Our country chatau is incredible and it's surrounded by beautiful gardens. After unloading our bags and enjoying several cocktails we are heading back to the track for night practice. Cheers.

Chip

Don't believe the Winning 68 car was ever cleaned or repaired after the win! Brian, keep the pics coming, couldn't make the trip this go round.

Hi Brian, You are bringing back great memories from last year. Keep them coming. Do they have a movie theater for overnight naps?
