The organisers (the ACO) haven't formally confirmed the dates yet.

But, it is 90% certain to be the 17th and 18th of June.

We'll be down there on Monday 12th, through to Monday 19th.

Do you know how long you'll be over for and what route you'll be taking yet? Let me know what we can do to help!!

I guess mark will travel on the Sunday night (11th) and then return on the Monday Afternoon (19th). His nearest airport is Heathrow, not too far from Gatwick though.

I will be travelling on the same dates and live close to mark.

Cheers. Happy Planning Randy!

I will let Mark Answer the airport question as I am not sure how much closer to Gatwick he is then I am.

If you book Heathrow you are certain to be within 40 mins drive of him and me.

Does it matter. You can get the Airlink from Gatwick to Heathrow every 20 mins, so use any place.

Take life by the horns and live it.

Motorsport News (12/10/05) quote:
"Next year's Le Mans 24 Hours has been scheduled for June 17/18. The pre-event test will take place on June 3/4".

Can't guarantee they're correct, but it's probably as reliable as it gets without ACO confirmation.

Hope this helps (and hope it's true as me & Mrs Dee have tickets to see Bon Jovi at the new Wembley Stadium the previous weekend!!)

I've got an offer to see Bon Jovi at Wembley as well, but we're leaving on the Sunday overnighter!  :( :)

I've got tickets to see Bon Jovi at the City of Manchester stadium on the 4th June !

Randy, reading your posts, I really hope you are getting your sh*t together for a 2006 Le Mans debut so we can return the hospitality.
