Houx Annexxe campsite ticket required

[IPAddis]

As the ACO have given all the tickets for Houx Annexe to the "extortionate mark-up brigade", I would be happy to relieve someone of their campsite ticket for the same price as the ACO charge or perhaps slightly higher.

I have friends staying in the same campsite so I really need the right ticket. If all else fails, there could be a Dukes of Hazzard style TVR/fence interface on the Thursday afternoon. Can you fit bull bars to a Griff?

I've sent you an email direct but just in case you don't get it, I am very interested in how many tickets you can get and the price.

I may well have access to a couple of Houx Annexe camping tickets. A friend ordered a load in April 2001 for this years (2002) race. Let me know and I will see what I can do.

The ACO display a consistent level of incompetence and arrogance usually reserved for British train operators.

I would write them a nasty letter but being French, there isn't much point.

Which group are you with? In my view, Houx is full of tree ruts, Houx Annexxe is full of grass. It is a bit more packed than Houx but if you get there early you can reserve a good spot. Toilets and showers are about 2/3 minutes walk away. It is situated at the right end of Houx as you look at the Houx entrance to the circuit.

I did have occasion to complain, in writing, to the ACO after Le Mans 2000. I am stil patiently waiting for a reply.

To add to this, I understand the TVRCC group I'm with have had their booking changed (read f****d up) to Houx Annexe, rather than Houx itself. Since my better half is not 100% sold on the idea of visiting Le Mans again (after the appauling weather of last year), I'm keen to check up on the facilities etc. before confirming.

Does anyone know what the showers etc. are like in the Annexe? and exactly which bit is it, in relation to Houx itself? I did try looking on the LM website, but couldn't seem to find a map.

No they have two toilet/shower blocks IIRC at either end of Houx Annexxe. It's just a long way from one side to the other.

I'm with (one of ?) the TVRCC group(s), and we were in Houx itself last year, just opposite the shower block & slow food place.

I assume, if you're talking of a 2 min walk, that these the same showers you use if you're in the Annexe?

P.S Hello Ian - I'll meet you outside Houx Annexe with your Griff & a roll of sticky tape

I'll trade you your ticket for a spare accelerator cable
