Another from the grid.
Notice how the Elan driver gets himself into position, while other drivers have to be pushed into place, with much arm flapping and whistle blowing?

Phew, thanks guys; I thought for a minute that I was the only one there!
I've got a load more but am off on holiday tomorrow (need a rest after LMC 10), I'll stick some more up here over the coming weeks- anyone else out there?

Pic 1 of OEW above has me just returning from a second trip to the track at lunchtime. I was asked by a frenchman to take him out on the track using his pass (His Rolls Royce had not made it as far as the infield). Would I?? - of course
The best bit of this track visit that unlike the crowded and pace car led club lotus laps, this time we were sent out with about 4 Nissan GTR s and a couple of Ferraris and Focus 500s. By the start of Mulsanne we were by ourselves - nothing around us at all for the whole of the rest of the lap. Closest to Nirvana that I can imagine !!
Pic 4 - you can just make out my bonnet up - it took twenty mins of stop start movement with the Morgans to get back to our parking, via the pits and paddock - it was so hot that the clutch fluid boiled at the slave cylinder!! Thank you for the offer of a seakl if needed from one of our fellow lotusees, but all was ok once it cooled down and the pedal was pumped a few times.
That week/weekend was one of the best hols I have ever had!! And for that I thank the many car enthusiasts who brought their cars from around europe to make a superb festival of classic cars and motorsport.

Alex, for next year I'm thinking about doing the OGP at the 'ring in August.
There are about 1500 more decent photos to come...... and half that many again "average" ones; I know........., it's a curse. Also a source of income for my old age?
Anyone else with photos to post from LMC10?
Now........ about that TC motor which is all over my garage............
Cheers,
Pete.
