...why don't we move the circuit to Great Britain, seeing that most spectators are from overthere anyway.
Yeah and then we would end up with even more of those footbally feckers... have you thought of that, do you really want mad friday every night and day?? >Martini... |

The Zoning map for Bleu Nord must be simple enough though , and even more pointless!

Email from ACO today! My question was can I camp in the area's that are not "zoned" or in a different area if my "zone" is full when I arrive... Dear Sir, You will only be able to camp in the zone written on your ticket. We will sell the exact number of place per zone, so normally it can't be full by the time you arrive. Kind Regards, Service Réservation / Booking Office Circuit des 24 Heures 72019 Le Mans Cedex 2 FRANCE Tel: (0033)(0)892 697 224 (0,34€/min) Fax: (0033) (0)2 43 84 47 13 www.lemans.org/ticket |

I also got a reply from the ACO this morning as I have not yet received a letter. These are apparently being sent out first to "regulars" and then in order of receipt of the booking request. I have asked them how one goes about becoming a regular!

Just a guess: May be "regulars" are people with a customer number from previous bookings. I have the same customer numbers for some years already and I always put it on the booking form when ordering next year's tickets. |

I have the same customer numbers for some years already and I always put it on the booking form when ordering next year's tickets. I think you'll find this is what I refer to as the "magic list" there is clearly a status whereby you get whatever you want regardless of when you book (or even if you book) It appears to be those who have booked tickets for a good number of years (I'd guess 10 years plus) seem to get special status which probably explains why the likes of Paddy apply for tickets in May and still get rejected! BTW I'm not knocking those that are on it it, I'd be very pleased if I was on it but sadly I'm clearly not! I'm just fairly convinced that quite a lot of these tickets are the ones finding their way onto ebay.... Edited to say: present company excepted of course, I know there are those on here who are on the "magic list" and do a nice job of passing their tickets along at FV....  |

I assume you did send it again Paddy. They don't seem to be having problems this morning.

I wonder where that leaves groups like ours who book through Just Tickets and have done for nearly 20 years? |

You will probably end-up with 20 tickets in all 5 zones  |

Same with me, Werner - I've had the same customer number for at least as far back as I have kept records (back to 2000). I didn't 'ask' to get on the 'magic list', they just gave me this number after a few years of ordering. But I still havn't received my allocation letter!!! Del |

I got straight onto the magic list after the first time I ordered tickets direct with the ACO ('99 I think), and I don't know why. I use the same booking number each year, and each year I mail them around race time "can you confirm I will get the same tickets next year" and each time "yes of course you will". It's weird...
I have always got 10 MB tickets but only used anything close to that in the first few years. I'm loath to alter the number in case it pushes me off the list - but my cash flow isn't good and I'm aware that I'm "hogging" spaces which I'm not going to use (it's unlikely that I would ever need more than 3 or 4 in future). So as long as I can help others here out I am not inclined to change the request, to avoid jeopardising my own requirement. (Of course I could try to increase my magic allocation to ensure that more of you get what you want...)
