Found this 10 minutes movie. Old film clips. One has quite the crash. A few clips of what looks like Steve McQueen.

Having been to Lemans over the summer and seeing 917s racing on the track I have to say that its an unreal experience.. Sitting in the grans stands when they fly by is not even to be described with words...

But I do have some video and sound bites!

What was even better was 2 laps of the circuit in a 911S at triple digit speeds, up to about 125 MPH on the Mulsanne...

The time would be the Lemans classic in 2008.... Its a bi annual event.

Contact me and I'll share where we camped and what we did..

France sucked, the only god parts were the track and the bread/pastries...
