Hi peeps, so here we are, I did promise 3 days ago RedBaron58:_vip::_trusted_uploader::_sitefriend::_male::_sitelover: that I'll do my best to attend this huge event and I did :_8) Last time I went there , I was 10 years old and it was with my grand father :_:D

Anyways, huge crowd and the heat & sun were there as well ! Between you & I, I don't know much about cars, so feel free to put comments, and put a legend to those of the pictures that I took here and there.

Obviously I was there as a tourist so unfortunately I didn't have the magical VIP pass. So I was more with the crowd indeed because all the VIPs were on the other side..

And I didn't have a big zoom or big lenses like the pros had, the 600X2 !!

You will find only 3 pictures here which aren't from me.

It's obviously for fun & friendship :) For you guys :) Because I'm more into wildlife and birds than cars :_:P

But it was a good exercise and a fun challenge !

So I chose to park my car at the North gate at the aerodrome which was perfect to also spot the beautiful cars, especially on Saturday.

And it was free !

Aerodrome, right near The 24 H.

After about 15-20 min walk you finally arrive at the entrance. One only piece of advice before you leave your car , take pictures of the spot or you'll be like those poor souls who have to wait hours for living the day after because they can't find their car anymore .... :_:D

The fan zone at the North gate was definitely the best place to chill on Saturday and Sunday, far from the frying pan and the loud noise of the cars.

Don't forget your ear plugs, your hat and take a seat also if you can !

You could also grab a bite , a drink, take a stroll, there were plenty of other things to do really rather than just stay and wait for the cars endlessly with your ear plugs :_:D

I didn't stay the whole night there, I heard that there was a concert of the Stranglers and that you had to drive elsewhere to really enjoy the crimson sparkles left by the cars braking. It would be just an entire other experience to do I'm sure :)

Image error

Sunday ! A few hours before the end.

I unfortunately can't make a portrait of all the great pilots seen this week end, so I'll just talk about one, her, yes the one, little prodigy ! She is 21 years old, she was a tennis champ, but got an injury so she decided to try karting and miracle, here she is now !

I'm posting some of the results for those who are interested ? And if I can a few more pictures of cars. Then, if some amongst you I've also attended the 24H this year well, I'll be really happy to see some pictures too and don't be shy, tell us your story :)
