In the coupe.

To be honest Joe you were always going to struggle with your tow car. The trailor and track coupe must have been somewhere near 1,700 kilos combined. So it's a big ask. But yes those hills do need a fair bit of anticipation.
Spa for me is 12 hours uphill.
I hope I can make Le man next year as it looks like much fun was had.

When I lived in SW France I always used the Newhaven - Dieppe route, and used to drive down the Mulsanne straight on the way.
About a 4 hour crossing, I think it only runs in Summer months now.
I think it took about 2-3 hours from Dieppe in those pre-autoroute days. It was an 8 hour 400 mile drive home to just south of Angouleme.
16VT and X1/9 1500
We must all do our part for the planet. I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using. I even unplugged my own.
