LeMans 2011 Team Tour... 'We ride fast, We ride light'... losers assemble.

[JamesBryan]

If you want to wait while 6 thats fine, if you let me know the crossings you want i will see what i can do, the price i put up is for whats know as peak time crossings, if you want to go before 6 in the morning and after 2:01 in the afternoon

No doubt, i'll be going with the majority of people in here.

How do we get the £70 deal?

 

[Truffs]

Give me a call when im in the office

[Curtis!]

One camping pitch covers 1 tent and 1 car iirc, not fussed about the numbers in each one I don't think.

 

[Rob]

I'm a bit confused, people are saying stuff about not needing a ticket for the race? What is and isn't worth doing...? Help a brother out.

 

[Truffs]

Just select the General Adminstration for the event this is per person, and then select the site and the number of pitchs

 

[Curtis!]

You can get access to inside the porsche curves from the camp site dude. Whether or not they were meant to be checking race tickets on the ramp up to there I don't know but pretty sure it was dark both times I went personally. You need a race ticket if you want to leave the camp site and get in elsewhere like the opposite side of the curves, dunlop corners etc.

I'm abit hit and miss to whether you can get into the grandstand out of hours though with just a race ticket? Sure Craven and Sy went over there last year?

Other than that people attempted to jump the back fence on the campsite but met police at points who told them to go to sleep lol.

You have it spot on mate, i think we need to start a new thred with the links as this has become messy

But you need to buy a GE ticket as part of the tickets

Hang on. Back up. Reverse. Someone else is bringing a woman? I think we need to replicate last year. 2 campsites. Seperated by a ditch. Those with wags on one side, then a fun side across the ditch.

You need a general enclosure ticket to enter the 'village' inside the track

 

[withoutabix]

thats too true buddy but i have to give her the benefit of the doubt despite that hadicap

 

[Rob]

I've been trying to find a wingman just so I have a bullet proof excuse for not bringing the gash along.

 

[Budgie]

Tell her it's a week where she'll hear people talk about cars 24 hours a day.

Drunk people.

Either that, or bring her along and Failsport will keep her busy.

 

[ForceIndia]

We'll need a generator on the 'couples' side. Power for the hob, vacuum cleaner etc.

 

[ForceIndia]

You do realise the risk you're taking? She'll see Naith and I, and think "Oreo".

lol she'll be happy with that! she actually likes her cars amazingly and she does drive one of Evo's favourite cars the Panda 100HP!

i do believe shes able to tell the difference between PH1 & PH2 clios and the 172 & 182 now it mite not seem much but for a woman its highly commendable lol

You do realise the risk you're taking? She'll see Naith and I, and think "Oreo".

shes met him at Oulton park already so she should be prepared!

 

[Truffs]

But hes more Famous now, he is off of Coronation St and everything.

 

[JamesBryan]

Are we having a list of who's booked?

1. James & John - Campsite + General Enclosure Booked

 

[Curtis!]

Taken from; http://www.lemansrace.com/dpage.html?pageid=45

Should I take my pet/child/wife/girlfriend camping on the Le Mans circuit?
No, not if you don’t want to
a) be reported to the RSPCA
b) be reported to the NSPCC
c) be divorced
Only joking! But camping on circuit at the Le Mans 24 hours is not an ideal enviroment for any of the above unless they are familiar with this type of event, however the facilities off circuit are usually excellent for children/wives/girlfriends. Pets really should be left at home.

 

[ForceIndia]

Alex, do you ever sleep dude?
