What do 'pit crew' do?

Well I presume, if I think about it really hard, that they crew the flippin' pit!

Aren't I good enough to race then?

I'm only joking, I know my limits. Also, I don't do training.

Someone to do with Jax (great grandfather I think) raced at Le Mans, in a Bentley though, not on skates - and won! 1927 wasn't it?

Re:Training for Le Mans - 13:04 22 Mar 07 1927 was Dudley Benjafield & Sammy Davis who won in a 3½ litre Bentley.

Re:Training for Le Mans - 10:38 23 Mar 07 For anyone who wants to check out the track, the French Moto GP uses the same circuit and will be broadcast on TV (BBC2/Eurosport) Sun 20th May. Funny how insignificant "the hill" looks when you're on board a 200bhp+ motorbike!
