Cleggy the Spyder Man Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 I might be going in September - anyone else been? http://www.circuit-des-remparts.com/index-id_page-1-lang-uk.html?circuit2011=96d737fba4b5d76ac8e2b50bc2c125ee Quote
Pistol Pete Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 My pa was talking about this earlier in the year, the circuit name translates to 'circuit of walls' or something and looks quite amazing. Tis quite a long way down in France. Enjoy Quote
Norman Verona Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 It's in the middle near Limogues. I haven't been but know people who go every year and say I should attend as it's fantastic. Quote
Cleggy the Spyder Man Posted July 4, 2013 Author Posted July 4, 2013 between there and the coast by the look of it (40 miles west of Limogues) I wont know until close to the date if we will be going or not as it depends upon my friends cottage over there being available - long story worth a look on youtube for some footage Quote
Norman Verona Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 I may go, if I can talk HM into it. I have a friend nearby so may get some lodgings. I'll see what mood she's in......... back in a week or so. Quote
Mark Stanton Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 Cleggy et al (anyone thinking of going to this event) I was speaking to Tom Green (ex Comp Sec and SS founder) and mentioned this event - he can't rate it highly enough apparently its a fantastic event with great French hospitality. Tom goes every year and spends the weekend down there in his camper Quote
Cleggy the Spyder Man Posted July 8, 2013 Author Posted July 8, 2013 well here's hoping I will get the chance to go the camera will be getting some use Quote
dave_t Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 It's a fantastic event. I've been a few times now. My parents live about 45mins away, and I seem to manage to time my dutiful-son visits when this is on If you've not been, and have the opportunity, then definitely grab the chance. Quote
Norman Verona Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 I'm hoping to go this year, if finances allow. Quote
Cleggy the Spyder Man Posted September 15, 2013 Author Posted September 15, 2013 Ok well I am definitely going now - leave next Thursday To those that have been do you have any tips for making the most of it? Quote
Norman Verona Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 Cleggy, if you're going past us pop in and we can have lunch or an evening meal. You can stay overnight if you want. We're between Rennes and Angers and about 3/4 hour from the road from Rennes to Nantes. HM has said no to us going as she won't stay away overnight now. Quote
Cleggy the Spyder Man Posted September 15, 2013 Author Posted September 15, 2013 lovely offer Norman but I am going with a non Westy friend in his car and he has made all the plans so in his hands really (rather than stop at his house we have also booked and paid for accommodation) - but thanks again Hope to look at doing a tour at some point over the next few years so will look to getting over then Quote
Norman Verona Posted September 15, 2013 Posted September 15, 2013 No problem, enjoy, it's supposed to be fantastic with lots of real Bugattis. 1 Quote

Rory's Dad Posted September 26, 2013 Posted September 26, 2013 Great pictures - I think the P2P guys saw lots of these cars leaving from Portsmouth. I could be wrong though... Rory's Dad Quote
