Le Mans Classic 2006 - ticket acknowledgement

[Steve Pyro]

I emailed and faxed our Classic ticket requirements before Christmas but haven't heard a jot from the ACO since.

Has anyone had any kind of written / emailed acknowledgment of their ticket request and / or a request for payment? ...... or am I getting paranoid?

[Dobbo]

Steve,

Same here. I emailed my request a month ago and not so much as a return email. 

[Doris]

I emailed my request at the end of November and when I didn't hear anything from the ACO I chased them up about it.  I was told they should start allocation in Jan or Feb.  So that would be anytime now then...

[rcutler]

Make that March as they always seems to take their time.

Lets see if we get allocated a site that is actually open!!!!

[Piglet]

I booked around Christmas and haven't heard anything either.

Given that the Classic is becoming more popular I wonder if they might have to open another campsite?

MB was not full at the last Classic. As there is a clash with Goodwood, and the proximity to the main event, will the same number of Brits be going?

We applied as soon as prices were announced, October/November, and have not heard anything yet.

Got all excited this morning, letter from the ACO.
Opened it expecting my Classic ticket allocation and.....all that was in the envelope was bumpf about joining Club 24.

Got home, 7-8 letters see the ACO one leave it 'till last so that I can savour it and what bloody happens bloody circular for something which I have already paid for...horlicks - wahat a shxtty day I have had.

I have done all the bokings online for my mum and sister to go to Aussie for a month, this sat, just checking everything when I realise that the plane coming back from Gatwick to Guernsey is a day late, no refunds or changes...fxxk fxxk fxxk... what do I do, tell them or let them find out when they get back to UK at 05.30?

I will have to tell them and cough up the £50 - £75 extra for the change... fxxcking shxty day

I was priviledged enough to get two letters from the ACO yesterday. One, obviously, was the junk about the Club24. The other one baffled me somewhat. It said that if I did not pay for my MB and La Gache tribune ticket allocation for the 24 Hrs my order would be cancelled. This was a mystery seeing as they had deducted the funds from my credit card last month!! A swift phonecall this morning soon straightened out the problem but I have to say it's all a bit worrying.

Same here Andy.  Two wonderfully letters from the ACO.  Kept back for opening with a coffee and cream bun.  Prompting me to join the club.

[Andy Zarse]

Prompted me NOT to join the Club!

[Lorry]

I can understand why the ACO want you to pay twice, I've just seen Goodwoods prices.  A mate has just taken out a second mortgage to buy 4 tickets.

FOS  £88 entrance, £153 with grandstand
Revival  £88 entrance, £176 with grandstand.

I think I'm paying under £100 for the entrance and Jaguar grandstand.  Once the ACO find out, that should double.

I was going to go to Goodwood this year too

f**k me 

It'll be cheaper (including lots of fuel) to go to the Classic!
