I've got 8 people so far coming to Le Mans 2007 and I was wondering how discounts work for group tickets for general entry tickets.
I would be happy to club together with an ACO member to get more discount.

If you have a membership the ACO will sell you the first six tickets for €45 ('06-prices). Standard GA prices (non ACO members) is 60 Euros this year. By buying 20 or more, you get them for 53 Euros. All you need to know  |

If you are an ACO member you can order your six tickets and get them when you receive your camping pass etc.. but you still have your membership card that has not been holepunched so go to any ticket booth and get six more at ACO discount price  worked last year  Andy |

That's quite a handy tip! Untill them at the ACO get all organised and start to work with computer-linked membership numbers  But I guess by then you can buy them for the €53 as stated anyway... |

Membership is €93, and is worth it when you are with a large group (25+). You also get discount on camping passes and Grandstand seats. Forget all about the box you get in the post. That comes about four months after the race with all kinds of statistics you would have found on internet in the mean time  |

And also you get discounted tickets for the other races- 24hr motorbikes, the moto gp etc.. and if you get an ACO sport driving licence you can have trackdays on the circuit!! dreaming of my R1 tanking round the bugatti circuit  |

NOT on Grandstand seats, Paddy. But as a member, you can order 2 (per member) seats in the ACO stand. Del |

You do get 10% off camping tickets, and discounts off grandstand tickets for other races. Also free entrance to the Welcome area and the bar underneath the ACO grandstand. It should be noted that food and booze is cheaper here than on the rest of the circuit too (particularly noticable is the difference between the prices of the 'poo in the 'poo bar and the Welcome area!)

Forgot about the showers - and the very clean loos - how could I?
Seriously though Robbo, I never use my allocation of cheap g.e. tickets - should have 3 at least to spare this year if that's of any interest.

Where are the supreme showers and bogs then? When I was there this year I could only find the ones beneath the ACO grandstand and you didn't even need ACO membership to get to them. Only needed to show your card if you wanted to go up the stairs to the bar or the grandstand.

Normally your ticket gets looked at outside the door so you can't get to the loos without a ticket. This year was the first time this happened as far as I know. Membership details here http://www.lemans.org/24heuresdumans/live/pages/club24_gb.html |
