I'm camping there

My first year at Le Mans, and I'm going with my dad

In an 11 year old Clio, I don't know If it's going to make the whole journey

But neither of us have ever been so we might not really know whats going on

Would there still be some spots around the place If we arrive on a Friday Morning?

We got there Friday Mid morning 1st time we went (2001) - it was a squeeze, but we got in! That was one car 3 heads.

We've gone down Wednesday night every year since then.
You'll be ok on the Friday - they open up the second field in MB on Friday morning.

See you there - look out for the Caterham, Golf Mk1 Convertable, MX5, Laguna and a refrigerated white van for the beer and beer and more beer (and a packet of nuts or two) ! Nothing quite like keeping the nuts cool.

Can you walk around the whole track and can you walk to the start/finish straight from the Porsche Curves?

From Porsche Curves within masion Blanche, you can walk all the way to Teutre Rouge.
Start is only 15 mins from MB and so about 30 from Porsche Curves. Maybe less if there was noone around.

The otehr open areas for viewing are Arnage/Indy and the Mulsanne corner.

and thats all.

(However, all of the above are the official viewing spots. You can go where you want as long as you are sneaky enough to avoid the guards )
