Travelling down to Le Mans next year

[Prime_al]

Looking forward to Le Mans next year (with todays pre-qualifier in mind). I understand that plans are shaping for a convoy for those who can make it and some secure parking arranged by Marque Park is likely to be laid on. This year we also went down to the May qualifying and enjoyed relatively unhindered access to all the corners - anyone up for doing the same in 2004 ?

It'll be sometime in May - I'll check and post up what I find .. speaking to a friend of mine in TVR's engine development dept yesterday it was great to hear that at the 1000KM at Le Mans this weekend all went well with the cars on the same restrictors as the Porsche's and Ferrari's - result 7th and 9th I'm told and the T400R able to outdrag them down the straights again - roll on May ..

As far as I am aware only the 2003 Le Mans practice sessions and race and the 1000KM more recently. The T400R is in something like it's 3rd season of British GT racing however ..

Thanks for confirmation on the dates for practice !
