Best place to spot supercars (bar the track!!!)

[Woza]

First time last year, so now a little more experienced. On mad friday, went for a walk which seemed like around the whole of le mans. Saw some beautiful cars but have seen pictures on here where people saw koenigseggs and the like.

Where in your opinions is the best place to spot some amazing cars? Apart from those on the track!!!

Woza.

In my opinion the best atmosphere is at the HA roundabout... But, to see exotica I believe the mulsanne straight? (someone will correct me)

The pay booth on the first toll from Calais.

Doesn't stuff like the Keoniggnsngesssgessoggegg and Fezza Fxx and stuff take part in the Friday parade? That is the best place to see the hyper-cars, and you can see some driving around Le Mans town centre after..... cue Farboud

Arash Farboud is a mate of mine. I'll see if he's bringing that with him again. Although I don't think it's ever gone over 20 mph in it's life!

Do you know the Farboud GTS? Most of the rights were bought by someone connected to Marcos and they've re-named it....

....wait for it....

Not wrong there

TBH wandering around and spotting the cars is part of the fun of the weekend but thats not just at Le Mans its at every stop, pull in, layby, garage, bar, toll booth etc all the way too and from the event.

Whoever was driving it was clutch riding it like a good'n . Although it doesn't look the easiest thing to drive in traffic.

And yea "The Farbio" is a bloody aweful name. It's British ffs, if your going to rename it at least call it "Dave" or something like that, just like a TreVoR. .

[evoesque]

Pretty much as soon as you get to the ferry you will start spotting them. I saw a Koenensegg and Zonda getting onto the the ferry. Saw lots of Fezzas and Lambos etc on the way down. Astons, Fezzas, Lambos etc. on the camp site and the same again on the way back.

It's like heaven for a petrolhead.

The Classic British Welcome at St Saturnin is as good a place as any.

This year the theme is Healeys at Le Mans. My old man't 3000mk1 rally car will be on display. It's the most travelled Healey in the world we think.

The high street in the village of Arnarge is a must on friday pm. Hundreds of Brits congregate in the 2 pubs either side of the roundabout with the fountain (and on the roundabout until the Gendarmes kick us off!)

There is always all sorts of cars driving up and down the street. (again, doing burnouts etc. until the BiB step in!) BOO HISS!

Oh yeah - Don't forget your water pistols!!

But beware if you have a decent car, esp. open topped. Some of these pr*ts don't just fill them with water.

[littleandy0410]

Yeah, some people do take things too far. I personally don't normally bother with a water pistol - it's a waste of a beer glass holding device! Camera in 1 hand, beer in the other, followed by camera in pocket, beer in one hand, beer in the other!

Good point though - if you're driving a car you don't want to get wet, best not to drive through!
