CLM Track Lap Question

Post by g3ngs »

Hi Folks,

I just bought a track lap of ebay on a bit of a whim item number 140422828757 for £51 at 10.15 on Saturday morning.

Was this a pants idea? Will it work? Will I be on the lap with Triumph Heralds or fire breathing montsers?

I love a whim me..................

Just in case anyone is interested, he has a few more up for sale as buy it now for £80 or so so he may do a deal at less than what I paid as the LMC approaches.

I also asked the question about who was in that "timeslot" ( 10.15), his reply to me was 1960's cars. I also added that you needed to be parked in the Bugatti circuit in order to take part..

I have 2004 996 Turbo, which would look out of order in this field, so i wasn't sure of purchasing a ticket.... the Porsche club France tickets and slot is full.

Are the French that bothered.... last time they just checked your screen pass... group "J", so they may well be "good to go" at £80.
Looking forward to it..

Porsche in Field parking

Post by Charlie McLaughlin »

Bootsy,

Early rumour was no "later cars" in infield, but that was a general statement about "normal" cars. It states clearly that for "exceptional/Luxury" cars that is not the case and Porsche fit into this category.

Otherwise there are going to be a lot of unhappy Porsche folk about all weekend.

Most of the group I am going with are leaving on the 0830 hrs LD Lines from Portsmouth on Friday. Should be a full boat with some nice cars on board.
