Fair enough, I can understand that - we have two choices if we wish to also go (as far as I can see). We could have a modern fwd Volvo trip to Le Mans or Performance/Modified, or both.

All sections/groups could meet up there (group bookings for all sections would probably lead to greater discount) and enjoy the racing.

As some of the Performance section are rwd classics anyway they would probably be in with the classic 240 rally so a Modern Fwd category would encompass everyone else.
Hi Julie

Have just spotted this thread (thanks James)

Sorry for any misunderstandings - I think that some of my comments got a bit lost in all of those replies posted - the idea is that anyone is wellcome!
Ive posted clarification on the rally thread in the events section.

It does seem that Le Mans is a bit in doubt due to the clash of dates though. If another destination is selected for a RWD meet you and anyone else will be more the welcome!

Ian
