Same same!

Happy Christmas and see you in an overpriced field in June 🤣🤣

The joy of an rss (Really Simple Syndication) reader is that I get notifications when there are new replies/threads. Makes life sooo much easier!

PZ54 - Campers only - Bookable


Although all of the above is only for ACO members and will change once they hit general release. If it gives an indication then it took be 15-20 mins to get through the online queue and I had about 10 mins on the site before being logged out

As backup I'm on the ACO site waiting to get in.. Will post up what I see when I make it through but certainly looks like its proper busy...

Well, that was smooth..

Just need @GaryFrogeye to sort tickets for camping and we are done!

Us Messy Houx Annexer's will be out Thursday and back Monday with our usual stop in Bagnoles..

Very much looking forwards to it after the last couple of years! Hoping for some decent weather and some even hotter racing ;-)

Think that I met him a couple of times in the ACO stand over the years..

Sleep well, Will raise a glass (or three) and thoughts to family and friends.

Cheers Bob - good to hear that it went well.

Agree with the UK PLF; For my return from Crete I'd completed mine, added the kids and then spent 10 mins looking for how to add MrsToby only to have to google it to find out that she needed her own... not great design by any stretch of the imagination!

Looking forward to next year already!

This is key to me: When we started back in 2006 one of our group had membership which combined with the generosity of KPY gave us an unrivaled experience. Fast forward and things are different. I joined so that I can get my lot wrist bands and access to the ACO areas as it affords a bit of comfort (and clean toilets).

The main benefits to me are the access to grandstands/booking (camping and GA normally via Team Langoustine) and once at the circuit access to the Club areas are the major reason; it just lifts the weekend.

I agree with others that the offering is not as good as it used to be; I am happy to maintain the membership but it does feel like we are being squeezed out due to the volume of people that now seem to have access to ACO bars trackside. Perversely I would be happy to pay more if there was a guarantee of availability as being able to watch / listen at a bar trackside is a great way to catch up with people that I've normally not seen since the year before.

Just been and booked 5 GE @ €62 plus T18.

Site is crappy and hard to navigate but google translate is your friend...

Definitely polo shirts, would love to replace my 2007 lanyard.

Poo bar trackside? It’s gotta be done...

Excellent news!


Enjoy the r&r...

I'm sure that it couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch ;-)

Got 600 miles out of the volvo last weekend - lakes and back on one tank..

Feel sorry for Perdu and GaryFrogeye; Midgets and Sprites are not renowned for their tank size..

Can offer a jump seat on Thursday morning... but from reading your post you still have a course to give during the day....
