As I've said quite a few times, don't be put off by 'traffic', it's not so bad if you go at quieter times especially like late at night or early on Sunday morning - but the routes aren't straight forward as certain roads are closed off by the gendarmes. Always best to have a navigator who has done it before..... |

Forget using the bus, by the way. That'll eat up many hours of deep night waiting for any return fair. A downright nightmare. Oh, and ofcourse a warm welcome to THE sportcar/Le Mans forum. ;-) |

Agreed. We normally leave the tribunes on race night to go out to Arnage somewhere around 1-2 am. We see the dawn in there and then off to Mulsanne.

Im pleased Cant be more exited about the trip. In recent years with tv, been so frustrated for our local eurosport commentators. Just love the knowledge of british ESP and RLM.
Just one more week and ill be sitting in the middle of france with my radio-peltors on, which of course are tuned in the frequency of radio lemans, haha Thanks for the tips! Last edited by JJlehto1992; 3 Jun 2015 at 22:20. |

However, I am not that sure that the whole track is open for pedestrians. When the pit is open, the rest of the track is closed from Dunlop bridge to the pit exit. |

Does anyone know who's driving the McLarens on the Saturday yet?
Just 38 hours to go before my second Le Mans Adventure begins! So looking forward to it but first a 14 hour drive down to Dover. |

I know all three of the 95 Le Mans winners are planned to be driving, Dalmas in the P1 GTR, the 650Ss will be driven by their owners.

For 2016, I have managed to upgrade my faithful 2 man tent to a 4 berth caravan with a wine cellar and helipad.
My question is, does anyone know the cost of a pitch with electrical hook up in the Houx campsite please ? |

Get in quick as the houx site will sell out very quickly and usually gone by the time the non members can get access, so join ACO, the discounts for race and camping tickets will help offset the cost

I think the hat does rather show an eccentric side so the french just do not bother to argue.
