I've just joined the forum and wanted to say hi. This will be my 5th Le Mans after previously going in 1981, 1986, 2013, 2015, but my first with Mrs B. Wish me luck.

Have a great time folks.

General Discussion / Re: Best way to get to Arnage Corner for sun up...

I was last there in 2013 but as far as I am aware nothing has changed. Busses run from the hard standing area opposite the TD campsite at Porsche Curves all night. I got one at 1am and the queues were still fairly busy at that time - although I think I only waited about 20 mins. The road up to Arnage was busy though so the journey took about half an hour.

Just watch on the way back as the busses aren't as frequent as some of the drivers just offload people at Arnage and refuse to pick up those waiting to go back. The return bus goes via Mulsanne corner so you can look at the poor sods there waiting for a bus only for yours to turn up full and leave them standing. The return bus drops you off at the main entrance near White House.

It all sounds like a pain in the butt (and some of it is) but it is definitely worth the effort - especially as the Indianapolis banking has been extended round the corner this year for what should be some great sights as they come out of the forrest.

Happy viewing all.
