Just had a wicked idea, would you pay for this?
Discussion
After reading all about who's going and what they're taking, I've noticed that a lot of groups have a 'support vehicle' tagging along, presumably this is the bloke that owns the big 4x4 that 51 other weekends of the year, people take the merciless pi55 out of.
On Le Mans weekend however he becomes everyones best mate cos they can get him to tag along and lug all their gear over for them so they can fit a mate in the passenger seat and don't ground their exotica on the ferry ramp.
Question is, If someone were to hire a van and offer to lug all their gear over for them for a small charge (and fund that someone's Le Mans trip in the process), would anyone be interested in patronising such a service?
Just a thought like!

Sounds like a good idea, especially if the support vehicle went over early and set up the tents etc. Takes some of the fun out of the experience but it would be nice to know your pitch is set up etc - particularly on sites like Bleu and MB where it's a free for all.
If you reckon you could take 8 peoples kit, and it costs about £200 for the crossing + £150 fuel That's £35 each..... sounds reasonable to me.

Oh yes Lotus may build great sports cars (IMVHO) but load luggers they ain't, camping at Houx Annex too, save me buying yet another cool box at Super U/Carrfore or what ever they call their ASDA's nowadays. (or is this an excuse to gain massive amounts of sympathy in lieu of all those free beers you get for the thanks?!)
Drop me a line with the costs, would need to sort out the logistics of getting the kit to the van though, was planning on going over on the Wednesday.

Cheers for the replies gents,
Sadly it won't be this year as I'm already sorted with transport etc.. although I might seriously consider it for next year if there's enough interest.
Plus this year will be my first Le Mans so I'd want to get my head around where everything is and get some idea of the organisation on site before I started guaranteeing a service.
An erection service (titter) is also quite a good idea, only problem is that I wouldn't be able to keep an eye on tents once they were up.
Costs would probably be quite reasonable but would have to include passenger rides and some sort of liquid based incentive.
Keep the ideas coming in the meantime,
Dave
