i've always wanted to see the group c racers

and have talkedabout it a lot, but with having 4 children in school i have to make my holidays in the school holidays

was you there the year the mercedes flipped over ?

, i've also wanted to see part ofthe paris dakkar, my mother and her husband where in spain twice when it passed through, she sent me pics of the beach stage at castillion.

i'd loved to have seen the group c's, ive been the last 4 years, so - 02,03,04 and 05, so ive only ever seen an audi, or audi powered win.
its well worth doing if you get the chance, and if you cant get along to the main event, then theres also the classic le mans in july, which features 24h worth of racing from the different eras, which i am also planning to do this year.
just leave the kids at home n come along

altho once you get the bug, theres no going back...

the dakar would be awesome to see as well - i can imagine it'd be a great sight seeing all the different vehicles tearing thro the desert!
