LM24 Tickets 2024 (not buying and selling)

[LM240]

Ready for the fun tomorrow. Hoping for smooth run and hopefully get what I’m after. Morning booked off work to focus!

New topic to see how everyone got on and offer any help and advice as it goes live.

0900 UK time is my understanding.

Check your access and passwords tonight.

Will have laptop and iPad ready to go.

[Vsix and Vtec]

Time off from work booked, my partner is also going to be online whilst on the phone to me. I'm primed and ready.

Can I become a ACO member within a few minutes on line or does it take a few days / weeks to process.

I am looking for camping Houx & grandstands (T23) x 4.

If I wait 2 weeks for tickets to become available to non ACO members will it be too late?

I’d be very surprised if there’s any Houx tickets left after the first few minutes of the sale this morning , you’d be best trying the ticket agencies

S**t cann’t get on the iPad wife’s trying to book a Tesco Christmas delivery slot.

Morning all. First time buying tickets here. Where is the actual place we buy tickets if we are an ACO member? Do I log into my account, then go to My Account -> Ticket Shop - ACO Members - 24 Heures du Mans? Clicking that provides an error for now but I assume it will go live in 51mins?

Thanks.

You should have been offered a waiting room when you signed in.

Only just jumped in. Maybe i'm too late already... It says open at 9 not 8:45.... Great start.

Anyone into the store yet?? Says we are under safety car due to large number of connections!!!! Never seen this in 35 years of going to Le Mans!!!!!!!

[kel176506]

Same, in the queue but it was like this last year for me.

Nope, got the exact same message as you. Not very far along the red bar at all either....

[BeeGT]

10 minutes in and red bar progress <10%

[LM240]

Definitely most stressful part of Le Mans.

Still waiting. Any early success?

[guff666]

Nothing yet. Glacial progress.

[LM240]

I’ve jumped onto an actual time countdown now… 13mins

Another red bar watcher.

At a guess the red bar isn't telling you how close to 'green' you are, just updating the page every 60s when it sends/gets a response from the 'keep alive' ping to "en_info.txt". There's also a less frequent ping to "sevlet.do" which looks to return the actual detail of if the page should move you on or not, based on your position in a sever-side queue.

What happens when you get to the end of the bar... Well I'm sure someone who's been on longer than me can say.

I logged in at 8:20 and managed to get to the shop then, but there was nothing to buy.

Ended up kicked out, had to join the queue again and now 4min left to get in...
