Had no problem with the tourist office, Got form emailed to me on 16th, filled it in emailed it back, debit hit credit car next day plus emailed invoice confirming camping and GE's and just had UPS notification that tickets will arrive tomorrow. For the 5% fee they charge i think it is well worth it and you get the ACO discount on the tickets as a member.

Several people in TR previously errected scaffolding in the campsite but over the last couple of years they have been told it is no longer allowed, so i think you will be limited to seats on top of the van, the stewards seem to get more strict each year.

The addition of Porsche in LMP1 has seen the "Bay of Fleas" LM tickets reaching silly prices so far.... I've seen 1 Houx pitch + 2 GAs sell for >£600 and similar money changing hands for Bleu Sud!
You MIGHT, just MIGHT get lucky in the coming couple of weeks!

Yesterday one sett of Houx plus 2 ge went for £640 followed by another for £620 made money but very few for sale at the moment

« on: May 06, 2014, 09:28:46 am »

There seems to be very few camping tickets for sale at the moment but you can still get BJ from the ACO and they usually start selling the returned tickets with a few weeks to go, my tickets have still not arrived yet so others wanting to sell may be waiting until they have them in hand

As long as you watch it with a pinch of salt it is entertaining rather than informative
