Kev,

1. Each official ACO pitch is 7m x 5m.  You might squeeze 4 of you on 1 pitch, but it'll be tight.  Better assume 2 IMHO.

2. Try 1st Tickets, they open a list early.  Also try any of the other agencies, but they won't be the cheapest option

Don't forget to book early on the ferry/tunnel as the sooner you book/pay the cheaper.

Suspect the race will be 15th/16th of June 2013

Thanks Paul, Tunnel / Ferry Ill be booking ASAP as i know the dates roughly.

As for camping tickets your right as one of my tents are Width: 315 cm, Length: 465 cm, Height: 200 cm so that would fill it – smaller tent needed i think!

keV, try also speed chills. We booked with them last year on Maison Blanche and they were first class. They have a private camping area infield at Tetre Rouge as well.

and if you're planning on camping in Club C'arnage, then the man you need to sweet talk is Rusty. 

I hear The Gimp is already getting ready to finish you off......

And Gimp v.1 now has Gimp v.2 to help him.

I don't think theres a restriction on the height of the tent.

[Brad Zarse]

Nick.....You know what - you might be on to something there...... 

I suggest that Camp C'Arnage, goes VERTICAL next year.  With the right planning, we could easily only require half the tickets..........

more worried about area than height. As for height, do what they do at N24 build mad structures

oh no - the racing cars are there, but they're so close, that the standard zoom lens on the camera just cropped too much of the car to be useable..... you have to have a wide angle lens to get any kind of photo.

and the diet coke example was exactly that - an example....  I could have used anything from the $20 event t-shirts, to the $7 dollar cocktails at the Tequila Patron tent.....

As for your sarcasm - if you've not been, I wouldn't expect you to understand - there are plenty who will.
