Hi Folks. A number of Cranmoggers, AKA ' The Vagabonds' will be making their various and devious ways to La Sarthe again next year for the annual pilgrimage to watch the Le Mans 24hr race over the weekend of 22/23 June.
The 2013 race gives us two reasons to celebrate. Firstly and foremost, it is the 75th anniversary of the first Morgan to race at Le Mans. In 1938, Miss Prudence Fawcett entered a 1098 c.c. 4/4 with considerable success. She and co-driver Geoffrey White finished 13th out of 42 starters. Glasses will be raised to her in the Tertre Rouge Bar at midnight on Saturday 22nd June. Secondly, it is the 80th running of this iconic race. So we can expect a bit of razzmatazz from the A.C.O organisers. If you have attended this event before, you know what a great time is had by one and all and will be champing at the bit to go again. If you've never been, DO IT before it is too late. You will be talking about it for years to come. We plan to camp in the EXPO campsite across the road from the main entrance. These are our infamous 'cow shed' headquarters where we rough it very smoothly. If you are planning to go or would like any hints/tips, just drop me a line off group and I will try and help to point you in the right direction. Hope to see you there. Best regards Dallas Jones Blue 'N' Boisterous +8 ------------------------------------------- View posts on The Mail Archive http://www.mail-archive.com/mogtalk2@listbox.com/ [http://www.mail-archive.com/mogtalk2@listbox.com/] Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=22459785&id_secret=22459785-4a39ddf8 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
