[911nutter]

trying to organise my first trip to le mans this year. not been before but having problems ticket wise. anyone know where i can get 5 or 6 tickets? i've also put a note of this request on the le mans site...

I bought the entry tickets on the day at the gate (officially not through touts).

If you want to camp in an official area, this will obviously need to be arranged in advance, but there are plenty of decent campsites in the surrounding areas.

We stayed at the Chateau Chantaloup or something like that. Good place and the owner's 18 year old daughter was a stunner

Entry tickets are not a problem you just pay on the gate. If you want to camp on site you are too late (by about 10 months to get tickets) Beware if you see them offered on Ebay etc there are a lot of scams where photocopies are offered.

Plenty of camp sites in the vicinity (proper facilities and cheaper) but you do miss the buzz (and bang and flash and vomit and odors) of being where the action is. Also hotels in the vicinity are all gone now but you can camp or hotel and drive in and park for about 10euros.

Try looking at Club Arnage on the web for details and tips

cheers leightweight. we've got a motley crue of disfunctional motors in our group of a tvr, exige, caterham and one other (yet to be purchased) and my mowta. i'm attaching a towbar to my car for the inevitable tvr breakdown. we're looking at going down thursday 10th returning sunday 13th via portsmouth le havre. we've found some tickets but now need to get commitments from the boys. when are you down etc - and will you be going in your c4s (i assume that's what you've got by your profile. speak oh wise one

Not sure what car I will be in the C4S is for sale as the ashtrays are full .Any replacement will be will be of a pork nature but that is all I have for you at the moment.
We are going on wednesday so we get a good spot at the Vomitorium . Probably park on the grass at garage vert

We buy about 50 tickets, camping permits and ferry crossings for LM. Due to people dropping out at the last minute we have no problem selling them on on the Pistonheads LM forum.

Lots of others sell their tickets there too and since its not selling as a business and just passing on tickets to a motoring event Ted tollerates it.

Keep your eye on the LM forum. As we draw closer you will see the clubs selling on the unwanted tickets. Sometimes there are some real bargins to be had.

At present we have a couple of complete packages spare but are waiting for decisions from people.

....waiting for decisions. sounds so familiar. sometimes i think my friends are a bunch of indecisive women 'surfing the crimson tide' as the say
