ECR Posted June 28, 2002 Author Share Posted June 28, 2002 I thought you would turn up rather quickly ! What I wouldn't give to be going down the last downhill section before the finishing line at Dijon in your car right now. You will be making some classic noise with that high revving engine and sequential box. You can tell I like Dijon ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbara Swift Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 That's good news, my Roger's getting excited! wink.gif Good news Geoff! thumbsup.gif Sorry Andrew but of course we will, you're missing a gem! Final letters, instructions and info will be posted out at the beginning of next week. S'pose we'd better start another countdown......... 23 DAYS TILL LE SEPT id=red> cool.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murph7355 Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 My car's back now so am officially allowing the excitement to start. Even turned down a track day on the 18th JIC. Now to get my spare wheels sorted. Barbara - met a young lady called Julie at Stand21 today. She said she's talked to you I think. Top gear they sell but there's no way their helmets are extra large.

Barbara Swift Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 Ah, she's back from her honeymoon then! Did she say where she went? She had no idea where she was going before the wedding but was given a list of very strange things to pack and was getting rather puzzled by it all. wink.gif Julie's Dad is Yves Morizot President of Stand 21. Astrali and Stand 21 used to show at Motor Shows and Racing Car Shows together for quite a few years but we only met up with him again three or four years ago when we were last at Dijon and he showed Roger and I round the factory and how they make the crash helmets etc. cool.gif Yves has invited the Le Septers to the factory and showroom for coffee as we leave Dijon for our next hotel. Small world isn't it? I think a track day on the 18th might have been a little "brave"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 ECR - do you need permission to get excited? wink.gif Very jealous. Next time gadget, next time....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara Swift Posted June 28, 2002 Share Posted June 28, 2002 Nope, happens all the time and positively encouraged! cool.gif Don't all 7 Club members get excited? tongue.gif signed: "happy" of L7ClubGB wink.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stijn LUYCK 1 Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 21 days to go ... unless you leave a day earlier ofcourse smile.gif Long distances where a problem first but Vera is getting used to my "retro screen" the decission is made, it stays on! Now those half height doors ............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Day Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Stijn Glad to see the screen stays for Le-Sept. Half height doors are worth it as they stop some of the turbulence falling into the cockpit (plus water if its wet). Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Walker Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Just an idea but why don't all you LeSeptics come to the International dinner on the Saturday night (20th) so that we can give you a really good send off on the Sunday? We could wave you all off like the begining on the Classic Monte Carlo rally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Roberts Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 It dosn`t take much to get me excited. Andy `Met a young lady called Julie`,what`s the rest then? 21 days and counting. Nutty Nige Nigel Roberts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slipper man Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 I'll hold you to that, because that is exactly what I am doing! Should be a great week - International, Dinner at Hurst Castle, then Le Sept teeth.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Martyr Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Got the Portsmouth Le Harve tickets yesterday Spoke to the machine at the AA to get 5 star cover including repatiation of Nuit St George bottles. The Autoroute program was finally convinced that straight through the centre of Paris is not a good idea. Dan is now an omnivore having got fed up with French omlettes last year. So I am now excited. The trip between Dijon and La Charte looks good and we can drop in at Magny Cours on the way. Now Barbara don't forget the weather! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stijn LUYCK 1 Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 20 days ... got the toneau + doors, now where do do I put those poppers !?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanteam Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 The international dinner would be nice, but rather a long detour.. Lost 4th gear at the weekend, engine out yesterday, know what the problem is, now need to find a spare part... not only excited but now feverish!

Barbara Swift Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 Sadly this is the first international we'll have missed but have to go on ahead to Dijon to catch enough snails and frogs for the 94 people at the reception dinner! wink.gif teeth.gif (and check out that Circuit Dijon-Prenois is where we thought we'd left it! eek.gif) Hurst Castle sounds like a fantastic venue (Hurst was my maiden name cool.gif Hope you all have a great time.
