Good restaurant in the town of Le Mans

I don't think this bar has a snow ball chance in hell serving all of us

I love the unsuspecting faces of the few people sitting in the bar. They will be staying in their rooms in a few days! LOL

Ed

PS Tell them to get some more booze! Dr Frank & us are on our way!
 
No Brian the GPS took us without any problems
Thanks Bud, See you Wed. night !!
 
At the airport, our journey begins.

Saw the golf carts in the background of John's pix, who is gonna spool one of those up in the middle on the night after being at that small bar. Oh boy!
 
SteveA, I land at 9:30 on American (CDG). I also have room for 2 or 3 if anyone needs a ride. I don't know my way around Paris and have heard leaving CDG is difficult. If you're still around when I leave I'd like to follow (the store sounds like a good idea). Are you heading to the resort prior to the track?
 
I'm in at 8:30 as well.
 
Ford GT Owner VIP Hospitality at the 24 Hours of Le Mans

Gentlemen,

After lunch and some window shopping along Lake Como we managed to extract our GT's from the parking lot to head a couple hundred miles west to Saint Vincent where we've stopped for the night. Our fearless leader made some serious speed on the Autostrada. Cruising speeds of 125+ mph made it a pretty quick trip. I'm not use to overtaking other cars at these #'s and was always expecting a Fiat 500 to pull into the fast lane as we approached at Warp 9. But it never happened so it was all good. Another 5 Star hotel, great bar, and a fine dinner ended the day for me. #34 has had a chance to stretch her legs and it's going to be tough to return to sane speeds after this. Onward!!!

Nurburgring pictures are priceless!

What's the significance of Dave's being further down the hill/closer to the apex than Chip?

You should print those photos side-by-side, and, like they do in the Sunday Comics , ask "Can you pick out the 6 differences?"
 
Chip - did Charlie take those photos from your car? Wow. Simply amazing!

For those that are at LeMans: ask me if you want one of these stickers. I'm bringing them with me.

Good Morning Ed,

Count me in.
 
GT0987, I land at 8:30 and probably wont be ready to leave for about an hour as I've been properly warned CDG is a bit of a nightmare. I'm not staying at the hotel that most are staying at but at the track in a motor home. But the offer stands if anyone needs a ride to Le Mans or?
 
Would love 2 stickers Ed if available. Thanks!

Gotta have some of those... Great sticker!
 
Yes Ed put me down for one please
 
Great stickers I would love one. See you soon
 
Ed I'll take one for my car. Thanks for putting these together.

Raining last couple of days in Bordeaux. Not a hard rain, but seems like coming in waves every 30 mins. Hope it moves on through for the Race.
