Where is the new Epinettes camping?
Discussion
Hopefully (though against all experience) they will put some traffic control in place.
If they had no left turns off of the avenue of beef and sent all Houx/Annex traffic round the back of the Annex, with just a Houx/Annex ticket check at the football stadium end of the road there would be loads of space for cars to queue while tickets get a proper check at the campsite gates/you waited for someone with no sense of direction to flop on to a bike and cycle randomly around the site looking for your space. This would leave the main road free for other traffic.

I think it might be a good option compared to blue nord, blue sud, Beausejour, all the other yellows and maybe expo. Also good for the tram for shopping / town.
From that point you've got a lot of options.
Down road to Porsche Curves
Up through Houx to pits
Up lane and over Bugatti bridge then left to the back of pits or right and through underpasses to dunlop bridge
In main pedestrian entrance near tram stop then right to S's / Tertre Rouge or left to underpasses for pits / dunlop bridge

I actually think it is an OK location (if that is correct on the map).
At least it is up the north end of the track and not down at Arnage & beyond.
I guess the ACO are running out of land to use, but it doesn't look much further to walk than Houx to me.
Does anyone know if it is marked plots like Houx?

From the ACO site:

Yep, i will be on there too. Got the camp ticket before christmas.
Fed up of paying hyper inflated agency prices so will give this one a go. It was either this or BSJ, which really is a drag if your doing it a couple or three times a day which I did last time I was there (Dairon).
That was my logic too. Normally I hit eBay at the last minute, and last year got two HA passes at less than face value but it's always a bit risky and having done BSJ twice I don't fancy it again.Fed up of paying hyper inflated agency prices so will give this one a go.
