Right - I have finally spoken to a human being!

The system is completely snafu as we guessed.  If you phone 0033892 69 72 24 they will take your reservation and make the booking once the system is up and running.

How touching! You really believe this don't you!  ;)
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

To the extent that I've also booked another camping place and a couple of grandstand seats in Sommer.......

Different year, same sh*t. Well, it actually seems to get worse :-\

Good luck y'all getting what you're looking for! With TL not offering BN, things could get very different with CA scattered all over the place. My hopes for MB tickets via T&T will never be high - tried them three years in a row, with no luck at all. As far as I know, all at DfH refuse to be imprisoned with PH on BN. Things will never be the same again. If it comes to the worst, we're back to square one - DfH on Beausejour... :-X

Well, I know this pretty little secluded camp site close to the track, maybe we should divert to that, it is about 20 mins from the track by car, so almost as far away as beausejour :(
I have given up on being on facebook and myspace, I kept mixing them up and invited people to come on Myface!

Haven't had my magic allocation yet - I've not applied for tickets for the past few years but have always had an offer around Christmas time, of the same as last year.

I'm not expecting it to happen this year though.

They really have nothing on sale from what I can see.


The current ACO offering is just the same as they were offering to the public in April/May of this year for this year's race. Members can book Beausejour, Pincenardière or Dairon plus the members-only Rouge site (one place per member) and seats are available in most of the grandstands (not the two ACO stands though). Parking places are also available.
At the moment the "priority" is worth nothing.

Keeping my options open Bob. I've quite missed it but I don't get as much hols or money in the new job, and it's a small company where I have no backup fro when I'm away, so it depends a bit what I'm working on then.

If anyone wants to offer me a better paid job with more holiday then count me in!! :-)

Just received a reply (automated by the look of it0 to my email on monday.


Dear Client,

 

As from Tuesday, tickets for the 2011 « 24 Heures du Mans » can be bought on line (www.lemans.org), as was indicated in the mail sent out by the ACO Club Department. This first stage of ticket sales, which is intended for Club members, will continue over a period of 24 days.

This service is now available, but only in the French version. The English version will be put on line very shortly.

We invite you to log onto our site (www.lemans.org), and to click on ‘BILLETTERIE’ in order to book your  tickets.

 

Kindest Regards,

 

The Ticket Office.


Seems they dont even know which date they said tickets would be available!

I replied asking when tickets in the blue zone would be available.  Currently the only tickets worth considering are in Houx, surely no one has booked any in the yellow zone yet.

I get the impression it's not worth bothering with the ACO, and paying out that little bit extra for a guaranteed place with one of the agencies.

I am prepared to be proved wrong, and am considering joining if it will allow me to get my hands on the tickets I'm hoping for.
If I had all the money I've ever spent on drink, I think on balance, I'd probably spend it on drink.
