Good Luck Jeremy!
Also good luck to anyone else on slotracer.online who is competing.
Looks a seriously cool event, will have to come and have a look one year.

If you need to borrow anything, I've probably packed it!

I knew I had forgotten something!
Anyway, first stop on my Le Mans road trip was Molesey Slot Club's GT race evening!
A serious wood track with some serious racers. 23k motors, but some of their cars were rockets. Le Mans team mate Ed lent me a Mosler for the evening as I has turned up for a gun fight with a water pistol.
And Alan, I could still clearly see you skid marks on the track from your heavy braking at the weekend.
Anyway I got to stand up for 4hrs, had to skip an evening meal, in bed late and need to get up early to miss the traffic on the M25, so even more practice for the weekend.
I love puttering with gears

I guess it beats a McBreakfast!
Have fun today - hope you get everything sorted and ready for the big race tomorrow.

I saw you!
...in this picture from Nick Sismey on the
DHORC Facebook page. I bet he's enjoying taking part and not having to organise a 24 hour race - the Rolls Royce sports hall being the regular venue for the HO Le Mans 24h.

A productive first practice session. Time to enjoy the two cars and to start to tinker with the gearing now we have THE straight to compare acceleration and top speed against the rest.
Time for a cuppa
