Im driving my Avus blue BMW 318is with full M3 body kit down.  And my mate is driving down his Purple Ford RS Cosworth replica down, hopefully with his new 1.6 turbo lump fitted!  We are on the 7.55am P and O Ferry from Dover on Wednesday.  See you there!

Pam, You mention camping at Houx Annexe, surely not by choice?

Where else would you suggest three 18 year olds camp?! lol

Ok thanks for the advice then guys, i have decided to leave at half 7 and get the midnight bus back.  that way we get to see the sun set (about half 9 or 10) and then a couple of hours in the dark.

Is it just one enclosure and you can see both corners and the run to indy from the mulsanne corner?  Roll on Wednesday 13th June 2007! - Aston Fan

I take it you guys have heard of a company called MRI (Motor Racing International).  Well it is through them, booked my first le mans tour with them last year and they were brilliant.  But this year have opted for there self drive package and camping at Houx Annexe.   The reason i am going to pay for the bus is because of bad traffic and the amount of alcohol our group will have consumed!
So people reckon dusk is a good time to go and watch then?  try and head down about 8 me thinks?! Aston fan

General Discussion / Indy Arnage excursion

« on: February 14, 2007, 07:27:12 pm »

Just booking my trip to Le mans atm and I have decided to pay the extra £15 and go on the Arnage and Indy excursion which i missed last year.  Basically a coach takes you from outside MB to the enclosure. 
The first bus departs at half 5 and the last bus returns at midnight.  what do you think is the best time to go and view? has to be inbetween half 5 and midnight remeber! thanks - Aston Fan
