oh crap, forgot that the FIA GT was the same weekend
i was thinking of flying out on friday evening to Rome to catch them there, go along with them on saterday & sunday to Modena for the RM auction & then back out in the late afternoon or evening

well for next week, i'm flying back home on monday evening from Marseille & then the next morning flying to Geneva & back that night
so no dinner

so you are not coming to LMS Monza then? cuz that's the same weekend with Villa d'Este & that's like 30km apart
we could have dinner there in Italy or in Swiss then :

Congrats and thank's for sharing pictures ! :)

DJ Dirk
09-03-2008, 14:59
well, you are in Nice, so Paul Ricard is about 2 hours away from you, so shouldn't be a problem to go there ;)
and you have even more fun with Monaco witch is at best 30 min. away

héhéhé
i know
Paul Ricard isn't a circuit that entertaines to audiences
the only have one small tribune
the track is mostly developed for specific testing not for events & racing

same with last weekend for the LMS, not on the list = not going inside
i do like the track & the facilities a lot though, Bernie did a fine job there

besides i said it wouldn't be a problem GOING there, didn't mention anything about getting IN there :D

Tr@sos
09-03-2008, 17:05
Ahah, and all the facility you get with going into the particular race track but also all the other events where you're going ... are possible thanks to your website or something else ?
:)
Because with my "young baby" ( :D ), I've succeded to get Press Pass at Top Marques, but for other event I don't know ( I sent an email to the Automobile Club Monaco concerning the GP Historique ... now we'll see :( ).

beeing a licensed member of the media kinda helps getting acces without a problem :p

certain organisers aren't too difficult, but for Monaco Historic GP i think they might be a bit more difficult
if not, i will defenitly see you there then, my flight & hotel are already booked
