Le Mans Thursday morning convoy - can we join?

[SamXpack]

We are heading down on the early crossing from dover eurostar on the 20th June around 7am.
Last year was out first time in the 350z and whilst we met a couple of people on the way down we wanted to try and join someone's convoy on the way down?

We found it was a great way to meet people and have a beer once we are down there SO is there anyone that would mind meeting is in the morning and is tagging along?

We're on the 7:36 Eurostar. Yellow TVR Cerbera and a Red Aston dB9

I did wonder about the 07:36 bit... is it a special? All the other crossings are 20 past and 10 to the hour

We are crossing on the 07:20 tunnel - Z4, 993, F458, Cayman RS, McLaren MP4. We will be going the twisty, scenic route down though, stopping for lunch at Honfleur

ETA - Well I'll be! Have just checked out of curiosity and there is indeed an 07:36 crossing, I am assuming put on especially to cope with the extra Le Mans traffic

We are also on the 07:36 in a Silver Mustang Cobra.
If it's anything like previous years, it will get merged and delayed. Last year we were delayed 4 Hours due to Immigrants in the tunnel.

Cheers for coming back to me. we went down on the motorways last time so had planned on getting tje windy route this time. We are getting the 06:20 train however therefore could always hang about at the other end for a bit?

[VEA]

We have a group on the 8:36 crossing (tunnel).

Z4MC, 930 Turbo, Integrale Evo II Dealer Collection, JCW MCS, E46 M3 CS and possibly a couple of others I think.

0836hrs on Thursday ..... silver Aston Vantage S.
Hope to hook up with some of you in convoy

[GrantMB]

Midday on Thursday on Eurotunnel - seems like I will be a bit late!

[VEA]

Turns out that we are actually split into two groups now. So I (Z4MC) wil be waiting around with a couple of others as the 2nd half of the group is actually on the 9:30 crossing.

Any recommendations for breakfast near the tunnel exit?

I am also on the 07:36 in a Black Continental GT. As its my first time would be good to hook up with others.

I'm sure there are so many people crossing on Thursday morning looking at the 'Whose on what crossing thread' that OP & other newbies (me included) will make some new friends for the 'tootle' down....l'm on the 9.50 tunnel crossing btw

[moribund]

Also a loner this year, will be passing Calais around 9:30am on Thursday (after arriving on the Dunkirk crossing 9am)

Happy to follow or be followed by anyone, I'm easy me

Well in the end I'll actually be behind you not ahead but I'm thinking of following your suggestion of Honfleur for a pitstop as it seems close to the Rouen diversion anyway. Will wave if I see you!

[matboyslim]

we are on the 0720 crossing would be great to have a convoy just love the N138 from rouen down to le mans but due to the bridge outtage im not looking forward to!
Ford racing Puma
and boxster

We are on the ferry this year as one of our convoy is running LPG, always loads going down so surely not worth planning anything??
