GaryGreat to learn you are prepared to organise next years ACOC Le Mans Class, As you know I have organised all of the previous 9 Le Mans Classic events, The ACOC have two Chateau provisionally booked, The Dunlop Grandstand / Entry Tickets and Passes and Ferry bookings really need to be booked within the next couple of months . As they sell out within a new months and the Ferry prices escalate.
May I suggest you speak to Andy Shepherd and arrange a date when the three of us could meet, discuss and hand over notes and details of what is involved and give you some guidance on previous LMCs. This event has proved very popular over the years with as many as 125 members for the Friday Dinner and 55/60 AC's in The Le Mans Circuit ( Excluding those competing ), A Main Event on the ACOC Calendar supported by members throughout UK, Europe and as far afield as USA.
Granted you will have your own style and ideas of how you would organise and run the 2020 event.
Please bare in mind when sounding out prospective participants that many members will be looking at participating in The ACOC 2020 International, the budget for two in one AC is approx. 2750 /3000 Euro, so you may find it difficult to Fill all the Rooms, (which have to be paid in full ).
Looking forward to meeting You and Andy, Maybe at the ACOC National later this month or The ACOC International in July , Where we could discuss and hand over the reigns into your capable hands.
Would be a great shame if the ACOC were to loose these two Chateau to another Club and the special ACOC Parking Area in the ideal position in the LMC Village , with such good access to the Dunlop Bridge & Grandstand, toilet facilities , catering and paddock. This location was allocated to the ACOC & AC Club France due to Jean Marc Dubost knowing Patrick Peter , ( Mr LMC & Tour Auto).
Both Members of AC Club France & ACOC....
If Gary Doesn't pick up the gauntlet. Hopefully another Club Member will.
