I am always there for many years now...:car-smiley-003:

2013, finally, the Vipers came back!
Great race. Thanks a lot Team SRT.

2014? Any news about restrictions lifted?

The official yearbook 2013 of the ACO is not in favor of the snakes :o2485

Sadly the rules and restrictions on these cars are a joke, I just wish you could throw the rule book out for all manufactures, take the gloves off and say go for it, but it wont happen because of development costs across the board.

Still, great to see the Vipers running again in Europe, Roll on June, we will be there supporting them :)

I will ask one of the drivers at Daytona if they have any info on restrictors being lifted for Le Mans but doubt they will know yet.

Le Mans is amazing. Been there twice and hope to go next year. That's a great picture of Alonso.

Watched it live with a bunch of friends and pretty much everyone felt that the Vipers should have been there.

If you need help with any ticketing or accommodation let me know Sometimes I even have a spare seat. This year my Son came with me.
Normal Procedure is to travel down from the UK Thursday, Camp through until Sunday, pack car and be prepared to leave race end, then stop over in a French Chateau for the Sunday evening midpoint in France
We stayed here this year
