Hi all

I've decided that in the next couple of Months (more then likely April or May) gonna
drive over to France to do the Euro Disney thing again and wanted to know if theres any
where doing a detour to like and old GP circuit with the Grandstands on the side of the road (seen them in Mags but can't remember their names), gonna arrive on a Thursday morning and spend the day just driving around after buying some booze, heading towards the east of Paris towards Disney but don't mind a bit of a detour, was thinking of Le Mans.

Any idea's would be gratefully recieved
cheers

ps.
gonna get me some of the Super San plomb 98 at some very cheap prices

Correct. Reims is the nearest big town; I used to have a map indicating which public roads now form the old circuit, lost when I moved country I'm afraid. The circuit is roughly triangular, formed by two minor 'D' roads and a major 'N' road. (An internet search would probably give you the exact roads). I think one of the original hairpins is now a T-junction, so I probably wouldn't try it at race speed, but it would make for an interesting detour and some good photographs.
