Shuttle bus won't help in this case. Bus #5 runs between Mulsanne corner and Entree Est (tram/Houx Annex rounrabout) but doesn't have any stops en-route, so no option to jump off half way down the Mulsanne.
I've never phones a taxi but have caught one from the rank outside the main entrance but don't think you'd have any major issues finding one that speaks English if you start with a polite "Bonjour/Bonsoir, parlez-vous Anglais?" - it only tends to be staff working AT/FOR the ACO that are unable to understand even French spoken with an English accent. Step away to people trying to make money, or just being friendly and you'll get by with either English or a mix of English and schoolboy French. Your only issue may be if you're asking them to drop you in a quite place with nobody around next to the Mulsanne at night...so just book the taxi to either Auberge des Hunaudières or Hotel Arbor.
A few numbers to try*:

WOW, thanks, that's some great tips.

- No, I don't have some freaky memory for Le Mans taxi companies - my tickets arrived yesterday from Speed Chills and their little guide boox that came with them was next to me/had the numbers ^_^
