Lemans now fully sold out. I was planning to take the train from Paris to the track in the morning right before the race but lordy this might be a shitshow.

SlowBloke posted:If you have purchased a green ticket for LM24, ACO has started sending confirmation emails to learn what eco friendly transportation you will use. I'm going for the full masochist option of trains(which is still less painful of the electric car alternative i could use by then). They asked for the longest leg of the trip, so i uploaded the Bordeaux to Paris leg of my larger Barcelona to Le Mans choochoo itinerary? I guess I did this right? We will see how much they care.

I'm another first timer to Le Mans (but not endurance races) flying in from Los Angeles and then coming into Le Mans by train from Caen the morning of the race. Have a tiny airbnb in the city center that cost me an arm and a leg. I paid the extra 46 euro to have access to the ACO members area to try to avoid having to buy/haul a chair around and hopefully get some wifi access, we will see if my plan is succesful. I booked my train out of Le Mans like an hour before the race actually ends (there weren't great options with my railpass), so bit of a bummer. Have every appendage in my body crossed that the strikes in europe stay at bay for June lol.

SlowBloke posted:I know they are different things, but you cannot deny that, even if it's done on a smaller budget, there is sneer on n24 from a lot of endurance fans due to the feeling that is a circus instead of a proper race. But that’s what it… is. It’s an am race that’s kind of a circus, that’s the point. Making it more like the other enduros would make it less special, not more imo.

Wundeground is showing a high chance of rain but a tiny amount of actual precipitation, a peak of half a millimeter an hour during the race. The lightning chance is prolly a bigger concern tbh

I’m technically doing 1665km on 7 trains between now and raceday, plus the earlier 13hrs/9000km-ish of flying. But that’s by choice cause I wanted to tour around a bit.

Finger Prince posted:Do you think we'll ever see the Audi diesels in historic/support races, or do you think VAG memory-holed anything related to diesel and they'll never see light of day again? There are only 2 R10 TDIs that are in private hands, the two cars Kolles ran. One sold last year and is apparently in full racing condition, so might pop up in HSR/SVRA some day. https://www.artandrevs.com/car.php?id=632 There is also only one R15 and one R18 in private hands, both changed hands last year too. The more recent the cars get though, the more difficult they would be to run without full engine swaps or factory support.
