Now it is so regulated and you have to book almost a year in advance, its also become the place to say "you go", because it is Lemans rather than go for the racing.

I have given up with that and have been doing the classic leman since it more or less started. Missed it in 2018 but going in 2020, missed it so much, its on my list of things I wont miss, Revival weekend and classic lemans.

Have to cram as much into this short life as possible.

It's a shame everything nowadays is so regulated as it kind of kills the atmosphere and excitement of the whole thing. I think Oliver would love it if we went.

That last statement is very true, you get to a certain age and realise time is running out.
It's not a laughing matter, you know what i mean, but if we can't laugh we might as well be gone.

It all depends on finances, cars need money spending on them. Just shelled out £1500 on the A2. What sort of costs are involved Dave?
