Le Mans 2014
#1
Exclamation 
Looking to plan a trip down to Le Mans 24hr next year. Anyone that has been before will know how much of an awesome weekend it is, copious amounts of alcohol and screaming engines for 4 days.
In 2014 the actual race will be held over the 14th&15th of June, however there is the qualifying on the Thursday&Friday, so would be looking as usual to go down on the Thursday morning.

Prices are extremely reasonable, they offer packages that include your ferry crossing, tickets & camping tickets all in one.
To give you an example:
2 people sharing 1 car - dover to calais return with 2 race tickets and 2 camping passes = £169 per person

Prices for individual tickets aren't available yet from anything I can find - but from memory are about £65-70.

From Calais it's about a 3 hour drive to Le Mans, with plenty of good scenery and beautiful cars on the drive down.

It's a properly good weekend and I couldn't recommend going enough!

So in true style, a list..

Vaughan where do we book tickets? Was thinking last night and there is no real outlay for me at all so I'll buy the tickets asap.

The more of you in one car the cheaper it works out. After the initial 2, each extra person is £79 so split the total cost between you and works out much cheaper

You can mate but we will definitely need a roof box so if anyone knows of one we can borrow, let me know!

Sorry Vaughan, you were too late to shot gun a space. If someone drops out, you can have backup shotgun.
