I tempted by the Spa 24 hours in July


I'm a regular Le Mans goer and wondered how this compared. Any write ups, reviews, tips tricks would be grand. The basics.

Camping seems to be limited as I assume the crowds are compared to Le Mans?

Can you get near the cars, when do people normally arrive and leave again? Crossings best?

I know nothing, but fancy taking the 7 to it.

Right, the threads taken off, brilliant.

Thanks for the replies so far folks. I've currently got just me and a 7 (once it's back on the road) and do fancy this.

Drive to Dover and hop over to Calais. Only ~3hrs from Calais. Sounds an easy trip, nearer than Le Mans.

Do most pop down Friday? I could take Friday off and then also take Monday off? I'm only on the south coast, so no big traveling times involved.

Leaving Le Mans after the race is a pain. Is it more than possible to leave Spa after the race and get a boat home Sunday evening?

Unfortuneatly a stag do has got in the way of this for me. So I'm doing my Europe tour (which incorporated the 24 hours) now in August and dropping in on the F1 at Spa instead.
