...it would be the story of an audacious initiative
Le Mans Classic is born in 2002 from what can be considered an adventurous idea! Retracing, over a week-end, half a century of the 24 Hours of Le Mans history, life-size, such as a gigantic living fresco, was quite a challenge! Not many believed in the feasibility of such an enormous project…
But when one fulfils the dreams of millions of enthusiasts, that of going back in time to relive the legend, rediscover emblematic figures and their legendary cars; and if the initiators are the Automobile Club de l'Ouest, founder and organiser of the 24 Hours of Le Mans and Peter Auto founder and promoter of many classic events; the initiative seems less hazardous…
The instant success of the event gathered over 30,000 spectators the first year and nearly 100,000 in 2010; proof that the passion of motor sports allows daring and that in the name of pleasure and emotion, this is what is needed.
Keeping up the tradition, Le Mans Classic is getting ready to mix dream and real life for the sixth time and continue surprising all generations.
