Freaky Friday

IT IS FRIDAY. .. WHAT ON EARTH DO WE DO NOW! 

With that rather shortened qualifying session done and dusted, today is the day that the teams set about repairing and rebuilding their cars. AF Corse will be starting all over again with their replacement car and moving all the settings across. The drivers will be off to Le Mans town centre to take part in the famous "Driver's Parade"and then back to the circuit for the pit lane walkabout and maybe to sign even more autographs.

Your Club Arnage Team will also be recharging their batteries... Bit like a human hybrid! Part of the team is back in the Media Centre ready to assist the ACO and the other bit will be wandering around the shops trying to resist buying a memento.

Our only main appointment is a lazy lunch which has been a long term feature of our event. Our restaurant of choice is up for sale and closed which after so many years is a serious blow. In retrospect we realised that maybe we helped to close it down by keeping it "our little secret" and forcing our friends never to reveal the name and place. .. Even under torture! However we are told it will be back in action under new management for next year so all is not lost. We are going boldly to seek out a new venue for today and The Classic.

Lennart is building up our Twitter feed which can be found at @clubarnage. So if you get the chance take a look and better still send us any feed back. Remember this is for you guys so lets make it as relevant as possible.

It was a sunny, hot and sticky day yesterday and today looks like being much the same. Lennart, who is our insider in the world of European weather forecasting, is looking at totally incomprehensible charts and graphs and radar data and he reckons that Saturday and Sunday will be dry with plenty of sun but the odd cloud here and there. There is a shower or two lurking around to the West of Le Mans so there is risk of an isolated shower.

Tony is beavering away in the Media Centre gathering information from every source imaginable.. Given time he could become a Trussers clone! 

Jock is waiting for the pubs to open and Le Grand Fromage is busy with ACO tasks until lunchtime. ... He hopes!

So.. Relax..Enjoy. . Keep an eye on Twitter and The Blogs..
