Le Mans CLASSICS 2014

[Paul.B]

Hi all - Just putting the feelers out to see if anyone on here is interested in joining us at the Le Mans Classics next year?

Simple format. Travel down from UK on the Wednesday/Thursday before the Race weekend. Stay at a very nice Campsite about 9-miles from the track. Maybe watch some racing? Go home on the Monday.

This is NOT an organised trip, just some like minded people meeting up at the camp site for a few days. You'll need to sort out your own channel crossings and event tickets. (All VERY easy)

Campsite - http://en.chateau-de-chanteloup.com/

Dates - 4th - 6th July 2014

Event - http://www.lemansrace.com/department/le-mans-class...

I'm happy to communicate with the Campsite owner and book some pitches nearer the time. Just looking for some definitely/maybe's as this stage.

A few of us (Steve_D, Tuxman & Andy GTT) are regulars. So any questions?

Hi all - thanks for the replies. I'll keep this thread bubbling along and look to get a better idea of numbers January time.

Nick - we will probably travel Portsmouth -> Le Harvre. I'm sure there are some who would go Dover across. (Andy & Tuxman go that route, I'm sure.)

I was planning on taking a support vehicle if I can find a volunteer driver/chef/cleaner/masseuse!!!!

I have a VW Transporter and can get the BBQ and all the tents and gazebos' in. (Well, you have to be comfortable)

So Paul, are you taking this comfy waggon via Portsmouth? Perhaps I should have handed you my tent back in June!
Is anyone travelling via Calais with spare boot capacity? N

Yes, we'll be traveling via Portsmouth I'm afraid. Andy and Tuxman will be your best bet for going via Calais. Or wait until nearer to July and courier it over. It won't cost much. We'd be happy to take it for you. (Or, I'm sure you will be traveling our way or one of us your way in the next 9-months. We could tie up then?)

Gentlemen - I will be emailing the Camp Site over Christmas/New Year so can you start giving this some thought and confirming you want a place reserved? Please add your details to the list.
