    Creation Autosportif had a thing where if you answer a question correctly your name is put into a random drawing and the winner got to go to Le Mans and be in Creation's garage for the race

    Bandit and Specialized
    The other guys were on a BMW 1200KLT, a Grinnal BMW Trike and a couple of Yamaha cruiser bike "thingies" !!
    Gendarme spotted me cracking on a little and smiled and waved me on

    If I don't go to Le Mans, I will definately be going to the ALMS race in Portland and for sure I'll get lots of pictures of the Porsche RS Spyder and other new cars
