I am forced to listen to Radio Le Mans without the proper sound effects this year. Thank good for the internet. However the unrelieved drivel from Hindhaugh may be too much
The things some of us do to get our fix Sad isn't it

It's a terrible shame..............there isn't a radio in the Ultima that I go to Le Mans in tomorrow, so I can't listen either!!

I think I must be the first person back from Le Mans this year.

My ECU blew first thing this morning and the car just rolled to a stop

Back home talking to Emerald now....

Bad luck Steve, I heard via Rodders tonight that your ECU blew
Also evidently Simon N had a driveshaft failure in his Challenger just before getting on the ferry, but he's back on the road again now so I assume he had / sourced a spare from somewhere

Yeah - it looked like it had gone in the sleeve. Last I saw he was towing back to Uckfield to drill and plugweld it back together.

Was offered an ECU to borrow but didn't want to risk it as I really don't know what caused mine to blow (could just have been plain bad luck)

Car was flying last night chasing Pete's Porker down to Uckfield. Stayed with him all the way through to around 90-95 before he started really pulling away.
