Grandstand Tickets

[TonyT]

I won't bore you with the detailed but managed to get a few tickets for Tribune 15 (pit exit) on Saturday night for the rest of the race. Some people had just come down for the first few hours and then left !! At one point it was nearly 8 tickets but we only got 3 in the end). I am now converted and want to get some tickets for next year.

I get my LM tickets from Just Tickets and I am a member of the ACO. I need 8 for 2006 for somewhere along the pit straight. Where did people get them for 2005 so I can try for 2006?

Thanks,

Tony

If you are a member of the ACO, then you can go to the ACO grandstand, right?

(im considering this for next year, but dont know if it is any good.. comments?)

Apply to the ACO now. It's them that sell the tickets!

Definitely! If you want shade (as was required for this year's race) then the ACO stand is the place to be - you can cool off a bit underneath the stand, with the added advantage of being able to watch the timing screens and live footage of the race. Oh - and there's a bar. Not too shabby if it's raining either......

Is the ACO stand the one on the same side of the pits just by the pit exit ?

Wouldn't have thought it has as good a view as the main stands, for example the Ford chicane and the entrance to Dunlop...

Do you have paddock access to get to the ACO stand ?

Thanks for the info. Did anyone stay in the ACO stand this year and if so what was the cost per seat?

The ACO main stand is the big bugger in the middle of the row of grandstands on the start / finish opposite the pits.

I spent the first hour of the race in the ACO stand with George (gab) thanks to loan of tickets by the Porsche Curve Pirates. Thanks Guys...

I saw the start, watched the cars come through twice, then fell asleep.   What is it about cars that makes me sleep???

Yes. Cost this year per seat was 100 Euros.

Yes. Cost this year per seat was 100 Euros.

........but you are only allowed 2 tickets per ACO member.
