Le Mans 2009

[James_N]

Anyone off here going. Im going for the 4th year in a row, so a relative newbie, staying in Houx from Monday 15th onwards

Looking forward to it now, should be a dam good race!!

 

[Nitrojan]

The girlfriend is going but not me this year

 

[Jez]

I'll be in speedchills. Most of us are going on a coach this year though so they can drink, therefore exotica line-up wont be fantastic in our camp this year.

Should still be a good laugh though

Thats a bit...the wrong way round! Shouldn't it be the girlfriend staying at home while you go?!!

 

[Gaijin]

I'll be going this year, should be awesome.

 

[James_N]

Where you camping?

 

[Jonny69]

I'm going, will be camping in Tertre Rouge from Tuesday.

I really ought to make the effort and go one of these years. Is it possible to do it without camping (like my creature comforts too much)?

Instead I'll be sat in front of the TV - lights to flag coverage on Eurosport

I guess you could stay in a hotel but you dont get the atmosphere of the campsites doing that. Its nice to sit in the comfort of your own home sometimes and watch the motorsport, but theres nothing like actually being there

If the OcUK trip to the LMS weekend at Silverstone goes well, I seriously think we should look at aranging an OcUK mass trip to Le Mans

My dad went for about 6 or 7 years in a row, but as soon as I was old enough to join him, he stopped goin

Still undecided, have tickets waiting for me if i do.

[Vanilla]

I'm going, staying in Blue Sud site, not sure what it's like (any idea?).

First time going!

 

[Nick1881]

I'm going, my 1st time too.

I'm also Blue camping. Look out for a red saab.

Anyone want to meet up? Email me a phone number, would be good to meet some OcUK lot, especially if you have been before.

Hopefully your camping and social skills have improved from silverstone..................


Would love to go one year but i've just had another weeks holiday away.

Sounds like a story!

Or is it, what happened at Silverstone, stays at Silverstone?

 

[Prophet]

First time for me this year. Managed to bag free tickets too.

Were camping close to the track on the grounds of the company who's supplied the tieckets. They're having a 24 hour hospitality tent too so it should be a great weekend

If its the same person i think it is, he got a lift off another OCUK member, didn't say anything in the car, turned up at camping WITHOUT a tent / food / beer / money / clothes / sleeping bag, sat outside the group looking at us not saying anything, never ate or had anything to drink, then we found him in Brians west wing sleeping on the floor, upon his return he went on to tell us it was the best weekend of his life, most odd, i just assumed he was one of those early robots that couldn't do much!
