Random request - 'loan' of a ticket for one quali session

[muppetdave]

As I'm going down to LM as part of a longer holiday, we're taking the M-i-L with us. Bonus of this is that when my mate arrives for the actual race I'm free to enjoy it and the mrs, her mum and our littlun will stay behind at the campsite and do their own thing for Saturday/Sunday.

However, the M-i-L does want to say she's seen a racing car so I am appealing to the good nature of PH. I will have my own GE, and purchase one for my mate (everyone else seems to have dropped out due to work). Which gives us two (Mrs and Me!). I am more than happy to purchase a third if someone is coming and knows they want to purchase it from me on the Saturday (unlikely due to logistics). It is a real longshot but thought I'd ask in case someone is camping and might give me the loan of a ticket for an hour or two for one session (happy to leave you with a deposit), I just don't really want to pay €71 for an hour or two!

Tickets for wednesday or thursday only are 30 euros, not 71.

a loaner would be cheapest, but it's not the full 71

30€ on the gate for just an evening practice, 12€ if just Arnage/Mulsanne

Wasn't aware of cheaper tickets for quali, thanks!! To be fair I was thinking of possibly Arnage/Mulsanne, so that wouldn't be too bad at all.

The problem is that the tickets are scanned in and out. If it's not scanned out (e.g if it's in someone's pocket to bring it out to you) and it tries to scan in again it will be invalidated.

depending on where you are camping just take her to the porsche curves viewing area. never been asked to show a GE ticket when going up the steps

We were asked last year to show our tickets during the race at the Porche Curves, we typically go there during the night.

I think I'll just go with Arnage/Mulsanne - go to either village for a beer and then an hour at the track, it's cheap enough and I'm sure €12 won't be begrudged.
