I think there will be quite a few German and Austrian teams. Looks like I'll be there too.

If any team needs a pilot, mechanic or a useless hangaround I´d be interested.

I think we have enough drivers, but mechanics and useless hangarounds are always welcome. If that was a serious application I'll send you the 29 page questionaire you need to fill out.

It´s worth going, don´t think too much  I went this year (not for racing) and that was one of the events I´ll remember for ever. Neddless to say that I´ll be going back next year,, ;D ;D ;D Circuit is excellent, facilities, organicers, teams, paddock girl ...  I wouldn´t wait too much, I know there´ll be a waiting list in no time.... Regards TVB!  |

I'll bring a sleeping bag and stay at the track, but I'll be flying there as late as possible. Just let me know how serious you are and I'll tell my team-mates that we have a mechanic, paddock-boy, hangaround, whatever. |

Just let me know how serious you are and I'll tell my team-mates that we have a mechanic, paddock-boy, hangaround, whatever. Just keep in mind that 24 hours is really long. I've done a couple of 24 hour races, one as a rider, and some three or so as head of team/mechanic. I can't tell you how knackered I was afterwards. On one occasion I was up for a bit more than 60 hours before I started driving the team truck back home (800km). After a couple of miles I was so fucked that I pulled over, opened the door, threw one of these thermarest things and a sleeping bag out and went to sleep. Only when I woke up some hours later did I realise that it was a) about 5 meters to my sleeping bag, and about 3 in another direction to the matraze, and b) pissing down with rain. |

;D I thought 29 sounds alot..
Im thinking shipping the scoot to Bilbao, fly in and ride to Zaragoza from there, then ride it up to Finland after the race. But we´ll see.
What is the function of a paddock-boy?? Sounds suspiciously gay.

Excellent idea!.. paddock-boys for female racers paddock-girls for male racers, or the other way around,, ;D ;D (guys from TVB, take a note!!  (there was only one female racer, very young, in a Lambretta team.. I bet next year you´ll see some more.. Yes, it´s a Le Mans style start, last lap, An excellent photographer came from France, very nice person,, just have a look and enjoy... the fastest lap was about 4 in the morning, such a beautiful sunrise!! www.michel-lemarie.fr/Flash%20Zuera%20Reportage/index.htm |

Holaaaa,
How are you all doing??

Three months left to the date.., five different countries so far,
I won´t be racing,, shame, but I´ll be there,, my presence is required (I´m the first aider-sports injury therapist) and there´s no way I´m going to miss it!! ;D ;D ;D
