Can anyone tell me if scooter karts are allowed at the event . I am a disabled veteran First timer

[AstonGeoff]

I have seen them there, yes.

However the surface in some areas is a bit, how shall I put it, rough! Not as bad as it once was though.

If you've got a four wheel drive one then all the better!

[GT6]

I would agree some area's are friendly but not all and to be honest leaving it in places to then get into stands etc or the viewing area's may cause a further problem.
The mass of people will also cause a very slow progress around at certain times, So perhaps it would be easier to use the scooter at certain times but not at others.

[Pilgrimage]

There is at least a specific concrete viewing area for disabled people on the outside of first corner just before Dunlop.

Also at Tertre Rouge.

Any news on a 2015 version? I rarely pop into CA these days.

[Kpy]

Werner is working on the CA guide as per usual. No publishing date yet as far as I know.
Just a quick mention - the rate of donation to download is downright disgraceful.
Very few people downloading bother to make any donation at all.
Gets me hot under the collar. Please be the exception if you take a copy

[Aysedasi]

Although I don't necessarily download it every year, I've always donated when I have - and so should anyone else who takes advantage of it......

[kpkorsager]

I think that the CA guide is very usefull if you are a 1st timer.
Full with history and usefull tips.

But do support there cause if you download the guide.

I've got my tickets & camping all sorted (paperwork arrived over the weekend) - original plan was to go solo, but a couple of mates might be able to join me at the last minute.

Will they be able to just buy general admission tickets at the gate & share my pitch?

Yes.
It is however only one car per pitch, but they can camp on your pitch, as long as there is room.

which site are you on?

The security on some sites means that you will need to arrive at the site at the same time as when you do leave it you will be given a pass which you will be required to hand over when you want to get back on to the site, although you can sometimes get late arrivals on it can be a problem. The camping tickets are scanned when you leave and when you arrive to stop the old trick of multiple cars arrive then people take the ticket back out to get the each car in.

This is only if they will be more than one car of course.

I have never heard of camping sites being restricted more than what a GE ticket permits. (Tertre Rouge might be the only exception, in which you Simon is the expert)

[GT6]

TR has had passes for many years and i think some orher sites within the GE area do as well, the extra security it gives are one of the main reason i always camp there
