It has to be said that the administrative process that the French call 'pesage' (literally translated it means 'weighing') is not the most exciting or spectacular event of the week. However it does give the locals a chance to see the cars of the 24 hours up close.
The arrival of the OAK Racing 'Art Car' (left and below) was a highlight of the day.
The design was created 'life size' in metal and then photographed and applied to the car.
