Ian, Thanks so much for your very helpful advice. Indeed, the Grandstands are now sold out, but I was able to get paddock passes. We'll be sure to stop by the GT40 Enthusiasts tent when we are there. I'm really excited about this -- my first time to LeMans! Thanks again. David

I'm going to one day of the classic Le Mans (Saturday) this year, as it coincides with other travel plans in France. My wife and I do not plan to stay at the site, but do want to stay at an inn or similar somewhere close (w/in 25 km?) the night before (Friday). I haven't been to the event or...

Please add me to the list for a signed copy. Thank you.

GT40P/105 was shown at Goodwood in 2006 in original white/blue livery. A photo is attached. Perhaps someone knows it whereabouts?

Agreed. Mark thank you for your hospitality. Your car is beautiful, I can't wait to see it when its done. To everyone else; nice to meet you guys; I hope to see you again.

Thanks, Mark. I'm plaaning to come. I'm anxious to see your 40. David Kennedy

It pains me to see this forum get sucked into the swamp of politics. Having said that, I realize there are many participants from England and elsewhere, and feel that a polite response is necessary for a correct sense of balance. George H. Bush is the President of all of us in the US, and I...

I don't post much, and only contribute when I think I have something substantive to say. I grew up in the glory days of modern Formula 1, Jim Clark and Dan Gurney were two of my heroes. Watching Jackie Stewart win in a completely masterful fashion at the Glen in '73 on a glorious autumn...

I'm considering going to the Cobra/GT40 event at Watkins Glen later this year. Does anyone have any more specific info about it, or are any 40's from the Forum planning to go? I'd like to get a sense of how many GT40's might be there, before committing to a pretty long trip. Thanks.

I will simply say that my assessment of the presidential race and the state of the world is different than Lynn's. However, I will not inflict any explanation of my my views on my fellow GT40 enthusiasts. I check this site daily, in large part because it is an opportunity to engage in a...

Exoto has just made the long-awaited (at least by me!) 1:18 die cast of J5 (#1 Gurney-Foyt, Le Mans '67 Winner) available for pre-order. USD $169.95. Web site indicates it will likely ship in 8-12 weeks.

It's on my calendar. Directions to come?

Anytime you set! I drove down from Maine two years ago to see your MarkIV @ Greenwich, and was hoping to see you last Sunday as well. I'd make another trip to CT to see you and the P4! Best, David

A PM from me as well. Thanks

FYI - New Automobile Magazine just arrived in mail -- cover story is 12 pp spread comparing a development version of new Ford GT with GT 40 #1008.
