Le Mans 2014 - Who is Attending?

I guess I might as well get the ball rolling about next years race. Now who is planning to attend?

Well I can confirm that I will be back, not sure how or when but I have been given my pass out Mrs Jones. Only 363 days to go best start planning....

Good lord that was quick!

Well, having spent a frustrating twenty four hours at the shop counter, batting customers away during the exciting bits, I have firmly stated that I am not going to miss 2014. Twice. I've already got the pass-out for the LM Classic, but I don't want to hear Martin Haven tell me just how easy it is to get to La Sarthe one more time.

And to be frank, however awful the weather in France, nothing in the world can compare with waking up at Arnage to a plate of merguez et frites or reminiscing over the race over a convivial supper in Beaumont-sur-Sarthe at the first stop on the long, leisurely way home.

2014 - count me in!

I really need to get there soon, haven't made it all night in a couple years at home so better get there soon before I want 10 hours of sleep a night. LONG expensive trip from the states though. Any thoughts on the easiest way for an American to get and stay there?

As soon as Porsche's return in 2014 was announced I said to my Le Mans-going mate that we'd also make a comeback after a few years away due to family/financial pressures.

We're already planning...

Seems like Le Mans might not really like having me there... the weather, the tragedy and everything conspired to attempt to make me not enjoy the event. I enjoyed it overall but the whole ordeal gave me a bit of an empty feeling...

I shall most likely be back next year, hoping to see and have a much more straightforward and clean week.

Good lord, there's a blast past from the past! I don't get on here much these days either but I think it must be ten hundred and fifty years since Tim's last post by now?

I'll not be back for some time yet you will be pleased to hear. But one day!

Wanted to attend for years, but thanks to school and other annoyances, I have never had chance to.

Hoping to lose my Le Mans virginity in 2014 to celebrate graduating university.

But no doubt afterwards I will be well and truly in debt. Ah well, has to be done.

Yep. Said it before, I'll be back. While watching on my couch with timing and scoring on the PC, it just wasn't the same. I kept looking at my watch and guessing where Ayse and Bentley were.
