I'm speechless. Speechless. Thank you thank you thank you thank you for the opportunity.

Declared my support for the 24 car in LMP2 ever since the line-ups were announced, now it seems I have to oblige and buy a full set of team merchandise besides this.

Extremely jealous of you guys. Congratulations to James and Eric for putting together another great pit visit. I expect some quality pictures. I got up close and personal with that team at Petit Le Mans in 2011, great team with a beautiful livery:

You all enjoy another quality pit visit. I expect some great photos and some excellent feedback afterwards!

Well, some news about the visit to help you for your timetable.
The visit will start at 14h00 . 2 groups will be welcome until 14h40. The cameras could be accepted in the garage, It will depend of the state of the cars ( taken apart a lot or not).
Other details will come later.
Just a small appetizer

Very nice Eric!

Just remembered that there should be a nice OAK art car there at the race too. Hopefully we end up somewhere near that.

Yes but it's easy when you live just near the team's site. However, it's very exciting!!

Oh man! Very, very much obliged !

Also my deepest gratitude for including me in this list of lucky ones.
Every year I've been so far, I'd have had to pinch myself multiple times for being in these inner sanctuaries of these teams, standing up close to the beasts...
And then OAK racing ! One of the best lookin' liveries, combined with the drama of the popping and banging, short exhaust V8...

Great work Eric and James.

So, as If I understand it correctly, there will be filming and/or photographing allowed?

Yes, Cameras will normally be allowed . It could be forbidden if there are indiscreet works to be done. We'll know when we 'll visit.

I think Eric was just referring to the geographical convenience of Oak being based in his home town....which just happens to be the 'Mecca' of sportscar racing for many of us.

Eric has been working on this since before Le Mans last year. And, (now that the team is sadly no more) I'm sure he won't mind me revealing that he was in negotiations with Pescarolo before that, in an attempt to secure a garage visit for us with the team last year. For logistical reasons, this was eventually not possible, and his efforts sadly came to nought.

Yes, Eric has been working VERY hard, and over a long period of time, on our behalf......
