What connection does your father have with the race? Title: Re: 10 years old Le Mans fan is in ! Post by: lemans-race.com on February 23, 2008, 12:19:07 am What connection does your father have with the race? Unfortunatly any :(We try every year to be a part of the legend but it becomes harder and harder ... due to ACO security decisions ... I mean we try to get in the pits but we often be pushed out by security people :D Title: Re: 10 years old Le Mans fan is in !

At the Le Mans Classic in 2004, a group of us managed to walk into the pits accidentally, and stayed in there for a few hours. We even got to stand on the pit wall while the main race was taking place! If you get the chance, try to get to one of the LMS races, or even one of the ALMS races in the US. They are far more relaxed and everyone has access to the Paddock area. Title: Re: 10 years old Le Mans fan is in ! Post by: NorwayNick on February 23, 2008, 08:13:57 am Bastien welcome to Club Arnage, there are many fans of your great race in here, and not so many fans of the ACO security people so you are in good company.
And i must say that is a very nice web site, keep up the good work Title: Re: 10 years old Le Mans fan is in ! Post by: Dirk3D_NL on February 23, 2008, 06:49:22 pm welcome!
Title: Re: 10 years old Le Mans fan is in ! Post by: Piglet on February 25, 2008, 10:44:50 am Welcome Bastien, your website is very good.
We had a 14 year old with us at Le Mans last year and on the days before the race he managed to get into the pits on his own on a bicycle a number of times, he just rode his bike in and nobody stops children on their own! You should leave your Dad behind and try on your own.... Title: Re: 10 years old Le Mans fan is in ! Post by: lemans-race.com on February 25, 2008, 12:18:59 pm Héhé why not :)
Title: Re: 10 years old Le Mans fan is in ! Post by: nickliv on February 25, 2008, 05:16:50 pm Or get your dad a really big bike and a school uniform. Security will be thinking 'How far away is that Kid?' and be so confused that they'll let him in.
