HELP

[Penelope Pitstop]

Now lets start with what I do have - one press pass to LM 24 and one VIP pass, a tent, a good looking young man to come with me and a car to get there.

What I don't have is somewhere to pitch the bloody tent!!

Considering how many events I attend I can't believe how difficult Le Mans is to sort out.

Can anyone help with Camp site passes, phone numbers or such?

Any ideas welcome... a very humble and probably unrealistic idiot..

Thanks

I would have thought either the press pass or VIP pass will get you on a campsite somewhere

If there is nothing on either pass about being able to camp somewhere, you'll be able to pick up one on this Sell or Swap board here a CA, although it's not too likely to be the one you would choose, you will most likely get something!!

Maybe one of the LM locals knows a bit more?? I think one of the regular posters used to get press access as well. Just keep your eyes peeled!!

Welcome by the way!!

Rick Wilson (Rickmeister / Mr Rick) of the Maisonblanche website used to have a press pass.  Hopefully he'll drop by to add his words of wisdom.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiccckkkkkk................

Thanks - don't have either pass yet as being organised by a driver - will sort out the press stuff this weekend at Spa so may be a little presumptious that I won't get anywhere to camp but need to be prepared (well as prepared as I can be) - just spent the afternoon looking for my passport.

Anyway good to be here and hope to see some of you at the track someday.

Cheers for the help...thanks Steve too - come on Rick where are you...;-)

I believe the ACO still have some tickets available for Beausejour. Not ideal as it's a bit of a distance from the main village but handy for the Porsche Curves.

Thanks JP I'll check it out when I get home - at work now...

Cheers guys - this is a way better response than I thought I'd get..Ta x

Also, keep an eye on the Sell or Swap section as tickets always crop up on there (at face value).

Good luck

I believe quite a few BLUE passes will soon find their way onto this section  

[Penelope Pitstop]

Brilliant - I will keep a look out for anything that comes on here tonight but then I'll be marooned in Spa for the weekend. I will have the lap top though so may have time to keep dipping into the forum.

Anyone going?

Hey - why are the blue passes coming in?  thats where i am gonna be... is there something i should know?

 

[smokie]

....Spa for the weekend...Anyone going?

Of course! See here for (some) details. http://tinyurl.com/3un7w

Look out for the Club Arnage t shirts.

Drinking for Holland will also be putting in an appearance.

That's great hopefully I'll bump into some of you - who's your money on this year to win ??

Hi PP

Happy Snapper will be hanging around the media room and more likely the bar in Spa from Friday.  He'll be the big bloke with the camera!  

There is no camp site provided with Le Mans media accreditation so you'll need to sort something out.  I've just sold my BSJ tickets, but they'll be tickets around over the next few weeks I'm sure.

I can't go to Spa - double booked myself with Pembrey

[smokie]

The hot money is on Hedgehunter, mark my words.

Whoops, wrong weekend, that was last Friday's intended post, sorry.

A car will probably win.

Who cares anyway? I'm after the fat b*stard with the camera & press passes...

What's Pembrey?

[Penelope Pitstop]

Firstly - who the hell double books Spa with Wales...

I'll be around the pits - I do Nic Minassian's pr so my money's on him not surprisingly.

Take care all and have a bitching weekend!!
