There are some really long term fans here, if you average it out a 4 days per visit for me that means i have spent over 4 months living in a tent next to a race track in the middle of france

Looks like this won't be my 2nd, guys. Lots of money to fly out to France from the U.S. and a complicated storyline behind that which I wouldn't want to bore you with. Anyways, things are looking pretty unlikely for this year.
Maybe 2015... |

Sad to hear Beetle!
keep checking those ticket prices, they are often like a roller coaster, and you might just find a bargain! |

Sorry to hear that Beck. You'll be back. Sebring (and I'm guessing CoTA later this year) ain't too shabby.

Can't you somehow make it a business trip, or get someone to sponsor you with your website? :

Think it's my 26th this year (assuming I can pull of a Houdini act just before my wedding!).
Le Mans attendances: 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1997, 1998, * 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 Not bad for a 35 year old! * Don't recall why I would have missed 1999 - but can't find any record of me being there despite it being a memorable race! ... lol. |

Commiserations Beck. Very much hope you can either work something out or manage to make it one to remember in 2015.

Sadly I haven't been able to arrange a trip this year (was going to be a mini stag do), mainly due to my best man forgetting he had a two week trip booked with his wife and kids...
However I will be visiting some of my fiances relatives in France (she is half French) and staying in Le Mans on the 26th May. I appreciate that its the week before test day etc but are there any bits that I would be a fool to miss, we have a car and are planning to spend the day there. Any restaurant tips for the evening would be great as well :-) Next year I'm hoping to make it to the great race!! |

Thanks everyone, at the very least I'll make sure we go and see the museum and drive around the track a couple of times.
