Le Mans Classic

Post by WIL »

Our Club stand at Le Mans was in an excellent position overlooking the circuit.

We had a lot of interest in our Jensens, and it was good to share time with folks.

Many thanks to Zac for all his time and effort for the Club.

It was a superb event!

Hi Will

Looks good

I remember going to the main Le Mans race in 1976 - a long time ago now - but quite an experience
Not managed to go the Le Mans Classic yet but perhaps next year

Are you or the current owner able to confirm who is the owner of CY - 029 - DG and the Chassis Number? (for my records)

Regards

Hi Will

It will be good to meet up sometime as our cars are so close Chassis No wise and similar appearance

In respect of the 1976 Le Mans trip, i think that i still have the Official Race Programme and will try to find it

I also remember going to Brands Hatch circa 1967 and watching Jim Clark race a Lotus Cortina
He span at one of the corners and went through a two foot high half brick wall
He span the car round to rejoin the track and was in such a rush he missed the first hole through the wall and went through it again

Also remember watching Clay Regazonni drive in a Grand Prix - generally a high to middle order driver but much faster than most in the wet

Thanks Zac

Kind regards
