2015 test weekend - is it worth the trip?

[martinvantage]

Unfortunately I can't be at there've this year and wondered of anyone has been to the test weekend which I think is at the end of May .?
If so, is there plenty of action to see and does anyone have any advice about how to get the best out of it.
TIA

I've been a few times in the past when it was several weeks before the race and on a UK Bank Holiday weekend.

The crowd is nearly all locals, and it was easy to find a hotel room and get a restaurant reservation etc.

If you're interested in the racing rather than just the "Le Mans scene" then it's a good weekend away.

Not sure I'd do it in addition to the main race anymore.

i went last year and had a great time, took anafternoon tunnel on the Saturday, stayed in a cheap hotel in Le mans that night, then got up early and spent the day at the circuit, left after testing finished and drove back to the tunnel. Meet plenty of friends from the continent there but as said very few brits there. Might be doing same this year
