I can rcommend where I stayed this year, secure camping own private bar and showers security on the gate, and 15 meters from the track. What was even more important was the access with the cars, easy site to get in and out of. Walking distance to tram and no iditos shouting at you to do wheel spins etc.

The 24hrs is very very diffrent to the classsic.
Take a look at this video...this is by the entrance to Karting Nord where we stayed for the classic yikes

One other thing, I am an ACO member at the moment, so if anyone wanted grandstand tickets, general entrance tickets, ACO camping, I might be able to get it a bit cheaper smile

Unfortunately I read that Karting Nord will no longer be used for camping as they are developing the Go kart site frown

At the moment the VCA guys are toying with staying 90 miles away from Le mans, then commuting in by train!

To be honest I want to be at Le mans for all of it wink

From the VCA site
"Looking into rooms in Angers, France. Beautiful town and lots of hotels under $100. David lives there. About 90 miles from Le Mans. About 30 min train ride. Not saying that this is what is going to happen, just looking at different options right now."

Me,
Ive just contacted the guys at Team Langoustine who provide secure parking / camping private showers beer tent etc. They only have 10 pitches left on that site at Tet Rouge! cost is £480 per car with two general entrance tickets included in the price. TL would need to know ASAP (within the next couple of days if anyone is interested).

You have a choice here. Take your Viper to Le mans and pay a premium for safe camping / parking at the circuit, enjoy the great driving roads down there. .......Or take a shed down and stay in one of the other campsites at a lesser cost!

Not sure what to do really frown
Any thoughts?

From the French guys at Viper passion

22-23 juin 2013 - 24H du MANS
La date des 24H du MANS a été décalée au week-end du 22 et 23 juin 2013. La participation de la SRT VIPER n’est pas encore officialisée mais de plus en plus de « bruits » vont en ce sens.
Nous n’avons pas encore de contact avec SRT concernant une éventuelle collaboration sur cet événement. Dès que nous aurons des informations, elles seront mises en ligne sur le forum



June 22-23, 2013 - le MANS 24 hoursThe date of the 24 hours of le MANS was shifted at the weekend of the 22 and 23 June 2013. The VIPER SRT participation has not yet been formalized but more and more "noise" will in this sense.We do not yet have contact with TRS for possible collaboration on this event. As soon as we have information, they will be brought online on the forum

OK for information, I booked the TL Secure private camping at Tet Rouge corner today, I have reserved 9 pitches.

So that's
Myself (in Viper)
Neilfishing ...In something. Booked for this site smile
The other pitches are for the guys who came down with us earlier in the year and stayed on this site.

TL expects to sell out by the weekend, so if your dithering on the side lines as to weather to go or not in your Viper, you better contact them quick!

Unlike some of the other prices, TL's price is for the car, so if you have a 5 seater, you could split the cost 5 ways. wink Or two ways in a Viper biggrin
