Sorry about reposting, but I've done a web searches on Remis and old GP circuit's but I've come up with nothing!.

even autoroute style maps, any help would be brilliant (as the girlfriend say we can only go if i can prove to her I know where it is and how to get to is so we're not spending hours searching for it!)
cheers

Rouen - last used by GP is 60's, F2 in 70's. It's just south of the city Rouen, right beside the A13 (Paris-Le Havre).
Don't know about websites, but it is clearly marked on the French equiv of 1:25k Pathfinders. 25% on main road D132 - resembling original track (nice downhill sweepers!), 25% built over by main road N238, remainder walkable (you can still see kerbs etc). Grandstand and pits still there, on N238. The section to the SE of the N238, which is now a footpath, leads to a nice cliff-top view of the Seine. The section parallel to A13 isn't really worth visiting (long overgrown straight). You could do the whole lot by bike, but you'll struggle to beat lap records due to the hilly nature!
If you want recommendations for eating / staying around Rouen, just ask, I lived there for 18 months....
good luck,
Duncan
PS there's a lot of club rallying in that area, buy "Rallyes" magazine and check the upcoming dates - v.entertaining and much more accessible than UK forests!
PPS Found a website with some good info & maps - no excuse for missing it now!
