I loved the place. So many that look as though they finished the race and were taken straight to the museum. Thanks Steve. I have so many pics I took while on my trip, but very tedious to post :(

Thanks Rhys, I really enjoyed the museum, its an absolute must for any race fan. The French cars were the highlight for me.
As well as the race cars, the Le Mans museum also features a large number of road cars. Many are of French origin.

Wow Steve, some great shots there of the 1952 Socema Gregoire, an amazing example of French design being so far ahead of its time and Turbine driven! Top speed 200kmph!
A bit like the Citroen Ds they were also a very advanced design for the day.
Cheers
Thanks Paul, yeah this one really stopped me in my tracks. An amazing looking car.
My wife loved this one, she is a big Citroen fan, particularly of the SM.
