Thanks Thomas, I am so glad you enjoyed our ACOC hospitality.
The problem with Classic Car racing is the value of the cars! They are now investments which are often (but not always) owned by rich people who lack the passion to risk them on the track. The FIA decided many years ago that the original identity of a Classic Car was less important than the correctness of its manufacture. If you can build a race winning car with modern materials which out performs the original for £150,000 why would the owner risk their £5,000,000 investment which is slower anyway? This has led to a whole industry where new cars appear at every meeting, and even some of the famous originals are stored away whilst their cloned replicas continue to race all over the world.
We are planning another visit to Le Mans next year for the Centenary of the ACO and would love for you to join us again.
Kindest regards, Andy.
