and worth it too. Rain or extremely hot (as per last year) its a great place to get your composure back.

We had grandstand seats for the first time last year - about £90 including track entrance fee. Planning on the same this year. We ended up in the Maison Blanch Granstand last year - not our preference but we booked late. It was a great spot to watch the race. Not as exciting for the start / finish but a good view of the cars dragging off up the straight and a great view of the curve and chicane at M.B. Will be there again next year!

See you there mate! We have our tickets for Maison Blanche as it was recommended to us. Never been before so it might be a good idea to meet up?

I have booked tickets for the ACO stand which inlcudes use of the ACO bar / showers / proper toilets, the bar areas have full commentry and TV coverage, the tickets are approx. £190 including circuit entry, but after last year (HOT!!!!!!!!!!!) i have decided showers and grandstand are important!! The ACO grandstand ticket also gives you membership of the ACO, so you get official timings and entry sheets and all stuff like that

Hopefully an MX5 as being a poor student this is all I can afford right now....
My brother is taking his Elise though.

I believe I'm correct in saying it's the one that doesn't look like a bit of iffy scaffolding but a real building, and is covered in big ACO signs.

That's the one, and the ACO shop underneath
