My mate and I have been regular attendees at the 24 Hour races over the years.
Its an amazing crack from the journey down to the camping, drinking, BBQing and er racing. We usually overnight Tuesday in Calais area, arriving at the track Wednesday t-time.
Have a look here [url="http://www.beermountain.com/"]http://www.beermountain.com/[/url] for a great flavour of what to expect.
We are usually a party of 6 but for various reasons eg it takes place in early June when my boy is doing his Msc, we are down to 2 which wasnt an issue as my mate had us lined-up to go with Audi. It aint happening.
If you are in a similar position, or have ever fancied going and would like experienced venturers to accompany you the 1st time; this is for you.
We have all the kit, you only need a sleeping bag, clothes and a friendly outlook.
In our view this is much better than a Grand Prix because there is the main race over 24 hours (night racing is amazing) but you arent stuck in one place; you can walk around and get different vantage points.
Costs are shared as is cooking/washing-up.
You up for it
