Went in 2009 - really nice little race back then, but they have been struggling with putting together a good grid as of late.
This year is suppossedly better, with 30 cars being entered already (no entry list out yet) and CN-prototypes allowed alongside the touring cars and GTs.
Now for the bad side: With smaller crowds the organizers had troubles recouping their investments in the race as of late, so they've decided to increase the side shows. The result of this is that there is a full on electronic music festival at the Circuit at the same time. They already did this last year and race fans were rather critical of it, as the festival area couldn't be accessed with the regular tickets for the race and blocked out some viewing spots. Also the crowd on the camping grounds was quite different from what you'd usually find at a 24hr race.
And that's basically why I've decided not to go this year and instead go to the combined BES/GT1 weekend at the Nuerburgring two weeks later.
