is the 11:10 crossing too late to get down and will anyone else be about on the roads during this time?

many thanks

Im sure there will still be loads of people on that ferry too. We can't all fit on one boat!

Could you not get on a Dover - Calais ferry? Its only an extra 15mins down the road in France!

Were on the 8:00am ferry which noone else seems to be on!

Either way I'm sure their will be loads of cars on most of the ferrys that day which are going to lemans. Thats what I'm hoping anyway as we need someone to follow!

I imagine there will be cars going to LM all week and on Thurs/Fri and Sat there will be loads more on every ferry.
Don't worry, you won't be missing out!

it was the 16th we were planning, but thought about the 15th, could be an option

I suppose it's not too bad it just eats up most of the day travelling down, hence why most are going earlier I guess?

Dover calais has earlier times but costs £110 per car

Dover Boulogne was £50 return, 1 car, 3 people!

Don't think there are many places left though

Wednesday is a lot bit quieter at Calais, this year (a Wednesday) we spotted no obvious Le Manners at the SeaCat port, where-as last year (Thursday) there were two or three Lambos and too many Ferraris to count on our ferry, plus the usual TVRs, Caterhams, Morgans and rice rockets.
