What are the chances of sorting it all in time? 2 people, small car so would rather turn up to a tent/motorhome etc already setup.

Well I have a couple of grandstand seat tickets and a camping ticket in Expo available. Given a discussion I might be able to chuck up a popup tent for you! Can tack on to our group if you want although grandstand seats are for complex reasons in a different stand!

Ferry tickets and general admission easily available.

Speak to Brian at 1st Tickets (PH partner for LM camping who organises the PH campsites) - he should hopefully be able to help you out & does pre-erected tents & catering options too on either Bleu Nord or Camp Vert. There's a link on the LM forum to their website though it's best to call on Monday.

There are other operators although I'm very happy with what they do - it's my 5th year using them & the PH campsite at Bleu Nord biggrin

Check out the 'For Sale' thread, someone was selling a Team Langoustine package...Otherwise Houx has numbered pitches so you can turn up and be guaranteed a spot.

Thanks for the replies. Sounds like it's all possible, so I'll look at the time off work and go from there on Monday.

I went with Thomas Cook a few years ago and was blown away by the setup. Showers cleaned after every use, no queues etc. How does it stack up to 1st Tickets ? I'd be good to be in with the friendly PH lot. Not overly fussed by grandstand, although it'd save lugging a chair. Also don't think I'd get bikes in the Z4...

There will be spaces now. With 2 people you will be able to get good grandstand tickets still too.

& the food/security. 1st Tickets have a well run operation for LM. If you stay the Sunday night after, it's normally "steak" night if you're taking the catering option lick

I've a spare pitch on the TL site, similar concept to Airtrack so good facilities and security in a prime spot just inside the circuit. Details are up on the sales/wanted thread. You'd need to bring a tent though!
