Le Mans 2017
Posted: Tue Nov 15, 2016 1:52 pm
OK,
Starting to get this together a bit earlier than last year...but Le Mans 2017 will soon be here, and althoug the place will be strange without Audi and the everywhere branding I am certains as ever that it will be a fantastic year! I will nail my colours to the mast and hope that Toyota can last 5 minutes longer this year!
So breif details below:-
Weds 14th June 2017.
Plan a. Newhaven-Dieppe ferry with cabin - sailing approx. 2300 arr. approx 0400.
Plan b. Dover-calais approx 1500 then to nuefchatel campsite overnight.
Thurs 15th.
Drive to Spay campsite with Lunch stop tba depending on plan a or b!
Try to catch both evening sessions of final quailifying but entirely up to you.
Friday 16th.
Free day on track, various options - Pit Walk, track drive/walk. on track shows etc, evening either dinner out or at camp!
Saturday/Sunday
Le 24 Hueres du mans!
Monday 19th June
Plan a. Dieppe-Newhaven - dep approx 1800 arrive approx 2300.
Plan b. Calais-Dover dep approx. 1800.
Those not been before:-
We stay at Spay campsite which a nice quiet campsite with reasonalbe facilities BUT great company, we usually get taken under the wing our longstanding friends from the land of cheese! (Holland!) The site is about 15 minutes dribe from the car parks....with no traffic....
Cost. Keeps creeping up with increased ferry costs and bad exchange rates but I hope to do for about £350 per car based on 2 per car. Unitl I start researching ferry costs I won't know this figure for sure but I will hope to have some details by the end of the week.
The above costs includes: Ferry/Race Tickets (GE) and Car Park (Rouge?)/Campsites. All you need to do is fuel your car and yourself!
Any takers? I will need a £50 deposit per person to confirm your place before I book your ferry!
Please ask any questions,
Edd.
PS. Apologies if you get this 'ad' a few times as I send it to all the JPSC related forums but feel free to share it!
