One thing I used to enjoy during Le Mans week was heading to the circuit immediately after scrutineering. Everybody's still in set-up mode and there's nobody checking who's going where. Thus, you have full access to the pits and garages (teams permitting, of course) but without the crowds of the Friday pitwalk. Absolutely marvellous.
Next year, Piglet, Jason, Wyzard et al, get there on the Monday and go with the flow.
