So this year I regrettably couldn’t go to the Lemans 24 hour endurance race in well Lemans france!
It’s a epic event with nothing but getting drunk n having a laugh all whilst enjoy motorsport and a few cruises in the area!
With this in mind im determined to make it next year.
My question is would any of you be interested in coming? Making it a sort of 206info holiday?
So basic details are:
Its around this time of year every year. Would be leaving on the Wednesday and coming home on the Monday.
Race is over Saturday n Sunday with the classic “mad Friday” happening ( it’s a bit of a naughty cruise but the French police always let it happen as long as it doesn’t get to mad)
It terms of cost:
Its cheaper if we car share but that’s up to you lot.
Cost involved would be:
Camping area and Race day ticket cost
Fuel cost
Ferry/ eurostar crossing cost
Food cost ( normally low)
Drink cost ( can be high )
Rough Costing!!!!! Basic pricing is as follows : £225.00 this is for 2 people sharing one car and includes your race tickets, camping cost and ferry crossing fees!!!
basically if we can get it to be 2 people per car ( either 2 info members sharing or you and someone u bring ( missus etc) then thats fine if you are planning to come in your car with more then one passenger, each additional passenger is a cost of £115 again including race ticket camping and crossing fees!
Erm that’s about it really!
It’s a great event where everyone is friendly and there are some awesome cars people and events!
Great News!!! Britishmods Will be attending too! means it will be a awesome drive down a awesome time there n awesome time back!!! get your names down now as i will be limiting it to a certain amount of people shortly!!!!!
