TRC French Jaunt
Gents,those of you that I promised to pass on the Norfolk lines web site
- here goes www.norfolkline.com - they upgraded it today, and I had a bit of trouble getting on but eventually booked out on the Friday morning, back on Monday for £118.00 inc trailer etc. Anyone thinking of coming to watch (or help ?) car only + peeps is about £50:00 return. For the more eccentric, a bicycle & rider is £30 return. Thanks to all at Silverstone had a great time - Just off now to write out I must not spin 100 times ! Note to Mr Falce - If you want your oil back, half of it is still on the front of my car (my own fault-If I hadn't of spun I wouldn't have been behind in the first place) Thanks for the Race ! |

Bugger ! I'm sure they quoted me over £250 when I phoned - Oh well booked now- still no rush. Haven't booked accomodation yet - will probably mess that one up too - All you old hands out there - what's the score onleaving cars on saturday night ? do you pack em up and take them with you, or leave them in the paddock ? Are there decent showers etc there ? any eats ?
Thanks in advance Alan |

I take it this is Croix? We've always left our race cars in the paddock, with no problems. Decent showers? Ha, ha - it's France - there's not even decent toilets! There's a restuarant in the paddock, if it's open, which does baguettes and croc messur (sp?)

There is a restaurant there, which was not too bad when we were there 7 years ago. For accommodation try the Lion-Dor, (Golden Lion) but I think you may have left it a bit late. Other than that, take a tent. |

Graham, I'm well over the 2000kg ( well not just me cars and trailer too !) before I booked, I emailed them and got a reply saying ok to go over 200kg - not a problem. If you do go, let me know, and I'll mail you a copy of the email in case of any queries at the port.
Alan assuming all goes well at Lydden ! |

Anyone bored waiting for Croix to come around should take a look at www.barryboys.co.uk to amuse themselves. If any TRC car ever appears in there, I think it should be banned from the series immediately !
