    The Things People Will Drive to Le Mans!

    Remember that street-legal Jaguar D-Type from yesterday’s post about Steve McQueen’s XKSS? It wasn't the only road racer slogging through the French mud at the 24 Hours two years ago.

    Yes, that’s a TVR Sagaris in tow, proof that the Brits really are a bit mad and will happily risk a long drive, a near-certain breakdown and a total mudfest to arrive at racing’s Mecca the proper way.

    And did you know there’s a separate parking lot for Se7ens?

    This year’s race kicks off in less than four weeks’ time, on July June 13.
