    but if you want to save a bit of cash, just get down early to the run to the Dunlop chicane and park yourself across from the TV screen. From there you can see the exit of the last chicane all the way to the Dunlop one and have a good view of the TV to catch everything else (with Radio Le Mans in your ear of course). Admittedly, if it starts raining you’ll really want to be in a stand!

    ar dem LEDs street legalz coz i wanna byz a Corsa like and get demz on it!

    i think F1 looked at LEDs on the side of the engine cover “to improve the show” ( it think its lewis hamiltons dads idea – honest!) but dismissed it – probably because its the usual top 3 these days and hey the races only last 2 hours max, so if you cannot follow it for that long then your probably not really that interested….

    after Le Mans, whats the next best race to see? Spa?

    The WEC Silverstone round has always been pretty good as it includes the ELMS race on the Saturday. Another big bonus is how open the paddock is, its all pretty much open access and you can quite easily peer into the garages whilst pit stops etc are going on. From memory its about 35/40 bucks for a weekend ticket with open grandstands so you get plenty of bang for your buck.
    Unfortunately its at Silverstone so its a) freezing cold and b) bloody windy.

    I went to the previous WEC round at Spa and its a great spectator track. Can be combined with a Nurburgring trip too.

    Wec will have a race at the ring late August and that would be something to see.

    With such long WOT sections on the course the engines would probably expire pretty quickly.

    The V8’s maybe, but the new ones could probably cope
