Le Mans Classic 2023

Post by PastDown »

Hi all,

I know a group of DDK members went to Le Mans classic this year and I wondering if anyone is planning on attending in 2023?

Yes …. I’ve already reserved the same camping area on Porsche curves with travel destinations based on all this years attendees plus a bit more space for more

James, I’m definitely keen on going next year. That’s if it’s okay to tag along. I wanted to go this year but the 356 was blocked in the garage for 10 week by the builders scaffolding.

Will you be starting another thread with all the info etc?

Will be going in my franken 911 or maybe the DB9, mate of mine is also going in his 993 RS. Took the 911 to the 24hrs this year hence thinking of stretching the Astons legs.

Just working on the race programme for next year, we may well be racing the Chevron B8 there. If so, happy to meet up and show folks around the car!

Thanks Guys,

Will let you know when we are sorted.

Sean, You will need to have an interview and possibly sign up to a 5 year apprenticeship....
Lot of pressure on the assistant tea boy in our team!

Your full CV is noted!

Semi snake hipped now, legs both the same length so walk in a straight line and so on! All went really well and much improved, thanks. Now getting back to work.
