Have I been napping and missed info on the trip to Le Mans June 2016, or are plans still in the works?

Not sure Heidi is really looking for a drive at 200mph though :)

Heidi liked her drive with you on the Autobahn last week - bumper to bumper traffic! LOL. I wish you could've opened it up!

I am interested in the trip, but have been unable to find any info. I assume there will be a group hotel, flight, pit access, race ticket package. So my question is: was I just looking in the wrong place, or is it still in the works? I have seen Saint Ho's presentation for the Le Mans Classic in early July.

DBK will be presenting it to us very soon. It will most likely be a group event for only the Forum members.

Hello Dave (DBK).

On this important topic, you seem to have sent me a message that I have unfortunately not received.
I sent you private messages you have not read.
This is surprising because I use this mailbox with other people from your Forum successfully.
If you have a technical problem, thank you to use the following addresses:
european.ford.gt.owners.club@gmail.com
or
francis.breitmann@orange.fr

Best regards.

Francis (Saint Ho).

Slightly off-topic but I was up in Victoria last week visiting my mother. I did not see any GT's on the streets but did wonder if I ever drive across country how do I get my GT onto the island. Do you trailer over or can you clear the ramp on and off the BC or Washington State ferries?

You'd best contact the ferries for the ports you'll use.

Having been on many BC and WA ferries, I know some would not have worked without assistance. Clearance is partly a function of the tides, which, of course, affect the ramp angle. There's a big tidal range in the PNW. Much bigger than the Jersey shore.
