Combined Track and Spectator Activity Schedules
LM24 first timer chimeing in again. I've gone back through several posts from the 2012 and 2013 after a question occured to me if there was a ever a single comprehensive list of activities and events compiled by ten-tenths members.
We know that the ACO provides a well publicized schedule of track and spectator events, including the drivers parade. But, in reviewing recent posts over the past week and looking at year's past, there are also a number of 'off-track' (non-ACO?) events that occur around the race. I guess that one could compile a list from a number of member posts but it seems tiedious and the chance of missing something is high, especially given the length of some of the posts. Just a thought, if it is typically done I appologize for the question, but if not perhaps we might consider.... Brian |

It's a perfectly reasonable question and I'm sure members will pile in with their suggestions for a list.

We probably should also include things that don't have a fixed time but are still worth doing so for example:
- Ride the Ferris wheel - Visit the museum - Friday walk along the pit lane - Friday drive down to Mulsanne (along with the various car club sort of things Simon mentions). - Eat tartiflette? |

Friday sees plenty of interesting cars in the village (town?) square at La Chartre sur le Loir, about 45mins south-east of Le Mans.

Don't think I'll make the trip over to Le Mans just for this. Batmobile on the other hand
