Hello,

thanks very much Le Man :) Can I ask how you have these documents ? Do you have any informations on French McLaren (except 05R) or Ojjeh's F1s ?

Ciao

Got interupted yesterday, should have posted this as well.

This 46 page document, Was produced by McLaren for the teams running at LeMans that year. It is a great technical insight, in to how a professional team approaches the challenges faced, when entering the great race.

Phil, I have no info on french based F1's, only that GTR 05R resides there

Thanks LeMan :)

Can I ask you why you write "Le Man" and not "Le Mans" ?

Nice one, F1 Monster... I like it.

If I get time later, I'll post 10R and 19R threads similar to this one.

I now have the first DVD complete, Vol 1, 26 different tracks, 2 hours. There will be at least 5 vol's all together. Looking at all the vhs tapes I have with F1 content.
