Wow, thats a lot of pictures,

If you have time it would be good to see you pick out and post your favorite ones,

MRC has had a run down to Le Mans before so it may be an idea to see if people want us to organise this maybe for next year, if not the year after as this will be Mazda\'s tenth anniversary of their overall win I have already had people in France asking if we are interested in a Rotary meet down there to commemorate the Rotary win.

That\'s a great idea Clive.  I\'ve been to Le Mans for the past two years and to be honest, the rotary turnout never seems that good.  I know rx8oc have their own area, but this year even that was off the beaten track a bit.  I can also say that I didn\'t see another FD there despite knowing of at least two that were there.

These are all special cars with an engine that has been successful at Le Mans, so it would be great to get more of us together on the anniversary.

And best of all was how much more attention my FD got over the millions of Porsches there :Giggle

We were still in the SpeedChills Site(3rd year with them) although last year we backed on to the main road though Beausejour and there were a few less of us this year.

Great pics Tony. Great idea for next year Clive!!

Last year myself & MetA (RX8OC) managed to meet the owners of the 757 13G 3-rotor powered Group C car, and even arranged their agreement to a photo op with the RX8s... Peter (MetA) even had the balls to then try to cut through the officialdom to make this a reality, but the final hurdle was the ACO would not allow us to bring any of our cars into the paddock area (literally 20m inside the gates), and obviously the owners of the 757 weren\'t willing to bring it down to Beausejour camp site :-(
