Revise Teams for 22 Classic Le Mans

Am as usual putting together five teams for this years CLM
If you have entries and need a team to join let me know this week
It helps as all teams will be in adjacent pit boxes and most will be UK entrants and drivers thus making life easier .We have won team event a few times so there could be other advantages.
Cars that finish are preferred!

Five places to fill in G2/6
Six teams in all with 90 % of British superstars and lesser lights.

There is a reducing number of UK entries to LMC
It’s probably arguably the best historic meeting anywhere .
Pity,let’s see what happens next year

Are you experiencing any logistical difficulties John? I can see that expense may be a driver for the reduction but wondered if there may be another reason.

We would have had more entries but these extra cars need carnets and we can’t be arsed to get these for cars that will only enter EU once this year.. We are already trailering some of our cars in our old Race box and Land Rover so we don’t need carnet for those.
That along with weakness of sterling will effect entries
Could be we are all getting ( or got) old and not that many younger people doing the international race series.
I have had over forty entries in the 10 editions of LMC and think this and perhaps one car next year will be my last go

Weather good
Finished night practise at 2 am this morning
Talbots one and two in qualifying but a bit misleading as think Talbot Largo quicker but it had a few problems.
Should be as GP car with wings
Pity is that a few cars are running without wings
But if it makes them happy!!
Elva 160 GT twentieth but all cars in front of it have engines at least twice as big so gang happy
64 Ford GT40 ideal time as been put in 67/72 grid Messrs Birch/Burnett are happy campers at this moment but see what next 24 brings
It’s a long way!
