Thanks for sharing that. What do you mean you normally have several cars?
Is it to early to start a list of who is definitely up for this?

I usually have several friends that i organise this trip for each year.
As it happens Benny was already comming and Wayne also because he missed last year so i have a list any way.
I am not asking people to say definate yes now but if the Club wants to have evryone camped together you need to gauge interest now to make a provisional booking.
I cant stress enough in the next 2 months the camping WILL BE SOLD OUT if you dont register your interest with Le Man Ticket office
If come January you have 30 spaces alocated for Camping Blue you then ask the guys on the list to pay for thier pass, If only 20 pay up you pay for 20 and loose the rest back to the Ticket office @ Le mans

Does that help explain my thoughts i hope so :grin:

I am Glad sorry for any confusion
As i say this way you avoid the Ticket shops who buy 1000's hence it sels out then they pass them to you at a vast mark up.
Does any one fancy doing it in a good/large Van suport vehicle it would make the equipment hauling easier 8)

Laim
PS i have run this past Stuart so let see what interest
You have you can of course have passengers in each car but we dont need to know this at the moment
