I rang ACO yesterday at Le Mans and enquired as to where my camping tickets were, they replied still in the office, will be sent out shortly.

The same applies to the actual entrance & grandstand tickets to Le Mans, Porsche club France siad by the end of June

So don't panic yet............but go mental if in two weeks time there is still nothing

Regards
Cheers Beaky

I've begun worrying about tickets etc too, so I checked this weekend.

Camping - they are going to post them, I paid euro 9.15 for the pleasure and they said they'd be here 2nd half of June. My credit card's been debited for the camping (Euro 79.15)

Entry etc through Porsche club France - I paid for 2 x entry tickets, parking and the laps. Sent photos of my car etc. I got a confirmation email in April saying the booking was 'well received, confirmed and verified' and they'd send details of where to collect the tickets in July. No money has been taken from my card yet though - anyone else been debited for this yet?

Ferry - god knows. Turn up on the day I s'pose.

Got my camping pass delivered by UPS on Friday.

Ferry have confirmed in writing although I'm yet to pay the balance? They may have taken it off my card.

Nothing from Porsche Club France except Emails confirming entrance, parking and laps.

Not long now!

I have had my 'e-tickets' for the ferry sent about 4 weeks ago & I have been debited off my credit card too.

I have the camping tickets

No word about the LeMans Porsche tickets yet :(

Lots of stories of the French police really cracking down on speeding. Looks like we might have to watch our backs :shock:

Anyone fancy being the 'sacrificial lamb' out front ;) :lol:
