Oooh look at you .... you've got seats lol my seat is wherever I can find space for my camping chair :getmecoat:

Do you head over to the village to the Guinness tent on Saturday night ?

That must be the stand overlooking the chicane  nice spot Audi had a viewing platform on the opposite side of the track last year if I can remember correctly

Nope, friends and friends of friends. My first time two years ago, we skipped last year but decided to go for it again this year. It was well organised last time so another chance for me to sit back, enjoy the ride and not have to worry about things.

I think this will be my 20th Le Mans, but I've lost count now :oops: for me it's as much about the atmosphere of the place as it is the racing.

We're staying about 30mins out from the circuit at La Ferte Bernard and have seats right on the finish line but most of the time we'll be roaming.

I certainly have seen some changes.

It was interesting to see the expansion of the "village" area when Audi arrived and invested heavily in its development so i'm expecting their absence to be noticable this year

I was wondering the same thing about Audi their investment must have been massive , I'm half expecting it to be Porsche to be the main name there this year. I'm taking a couple of newbies this year so it Will probably be a bit more hectic as I'll be trying to make sure they get to see everything they want to see
