"The London Project" Le Mans Racing Team - SILVERSTONE pics added!
I'm involved in a charity-based racing team, which aims to raise money to cure blindness (age-related macular degeneration). See www.thelondonproject.org for information about the fund.
We'll be racing at Silverstone from 9-11 September, so let me know if you'll be around. We'll also be in the US a few weeks after that.
Just got pics of the final car livery today, which I designed. (The fund's logo is pink so I went with it
)

Atlanta, if I remember correctly.
Ok, today was first practice day. We had two 1 hour sessions. Unfortunately the car developed an electrical fault at the start of the first session, and the mechanics stripped the car and worked like crazy to find it and fix it. It took them an hour, and we missed getting the car out for at least one lap by just seconds. Good try all the same.
So we were up and running again for second session:

Silverstone is a huge complex and I think most of you would LOVE the huge amount of machinery gathered here. From historic classes to the top new Audi diesel turbo LMP1 cars. Plenty of Porsches too.

The tire transport alone required an army of trucks. This was the Dunlop fleet - the Michelin one was even larger:
