The Organizer from the Support Race is Motor Racing Legends . Will go on Thursday evening to Le Mans to visit my Friends . On Saturday I meet a Friend which has very good Connections to Historic Racing . Maybe he can find something out for next Years Support Race .

The fact that the previous reservation system meant you could get seats in the ACO tribune. With the new systyem they were all gone on the first day ...

Great news indeed. Would love to see the c11 again and such. They were great in 2008 so I hope there are some new additions.

I saw on the website of GroupC racing that for next year team Zakspeed is preparing a Ford C100 and a Ford Porobe IMSA GTP car.

I'll be going to La Sarthe next year and will be booking my ferry tickets a week tomorrow. Living near Plymouth is quite an advantage, especially as I'm a pedestrian petrolhead (I wrote the section in the Club Arnage Guide about going on foot) especially on the way home when I'm tired and hungry and just want a proper bath and big meal and some sleep.

Thanks Aysedasi, it's nice to be here, especially as the site has a section on old school racers and racing. I'm very into the racing from the 50's and 60's so that's definitely a bonus.

But you'll find the atmosphere here in the Le Mans sub-forum perhaps a little different from CA - I like to think of it as slightly more.... relaxed......

Roll on next June, I say. The ferry tickets are paid for now and all that remains is to scrape together the spending money and buy a camping permit and entry ticket in November. Also, I find planning the trip there and back is all part of the fun for me as well. |

I know what you mean. I've been to Le Mans three times, all of which with public transport (I have also been to Monza and Zandvoort via planes and trains). I'm was something of a "late in life" learner (passed my driving test at 24 earlier this year), so I had no choice. I had my license and my first car in time for the 2011 Le Mans, but I took the planes again as I wasn't ready for a Euro road trip.
It's a challenge, it's expensive, it's hard work... but it's quite a feeling when you arrive at your campsite, get your tent all set up and lie down for the first time all day. I'm going to take my car for my next trip to La Sarthe though... whenever that is. |
