How do you explain/warn LM virgins what its like?

If it's hot, lots of dust, if it's wet, Glastonbury.
Loads of beer
Not much sleep
Lots of noise
The most amazing collection of cars all parked up in fields surrounded by tents and beer bottle pyramids.
Mad people doing donuts and shooting fireworks from their hands or trouser pockets (although not usually at the same time)
Super Soakers

You can't.
You can try all you want...
You can show them pictures, videos, whatever.
It's impossible to put into words. By using the word "virgins" I assume that you have already convinced them to go... they'll see soon enough!
How do you convince fence sitters to go? It is an automotive Woodstock, a love-in of high octane. Every type, model, and year car imaginable. Not behind some museum barrier but out being driven. Cruising around, "burning the carbon off those plugs"... using the cars for what they were intended for. A party with 100,000 of your closest friends, the majority of whom are total pistonheads...
Oh, yeah, there's a race or something the same weekend I think!!!

Hmmm, must admit that I was hoping there would be showers there.....! And definately going to need to invest in some ear plugs as I'm not the happiest of bunnies if i've had severe sleep deprevation (Well I am there for 5 nights!)
ear plugs? ha!
You will need more than ear plugs. I wore earplugs and ear defenders the first year I was there.
Every year since I just drink more instead!

Or a TVR S!
poor old psychobert had to hold all the guty ropes as I reversed onto them to hold the tent in place. well, what do you expect for bending them all with the deranged monkey impression that I came back to find when I left a psychologist to put up a tent.....

F
ing funny as fk I've never laughed so much in my life..
Apart from when the guy came back to check the arrangement of his plastic flowers under the gazebo next to us..
Or the mel flamethrower..
Or when Phil Collins dropped in to say hi..
Or wandering around aimlessly trying to find the mucky ladies tent..
Or that go kart race..
Or lighting a BBQ and having the smoke drift over the race track as the cars were going by at, what about 150mph..
Or the TVR dance..
Thats Le Mns for those that haven't been there before..
