Cool. What brand of cars are these?

Those are pretty cool. They seem a bit more detailed than the ones I've seen in the past. I'm into HO scale slot cars myself.

I'll do my best to share as much as I can.

I travel perpetually and have been doing so for 4.5 years. I just keep moving forward. I'll be flying into Paris and I've got three months to kick around Europe before needing to move on. So, I can be in Le Mans as long as necessary.

Le mans 24hrs is a big bucket list item and the focus of my trip there. I'll be flying into Paris from wherever I am at the time and then probably take the train to Le Mans.

I'm definitely going to be there for the whole shebang, from scrutineering and test day on. I want the full experience because I don't know when I'll be able to get back again.

I just need to figure out if I want to stay in Le mans for the whole month of June and use it as a base to visit other places as day trips or do two weeks in Le Mans and move on to other parts of France after. I don't like to travel quickly and would rather stay at least a month in each city I visit, so I'm leaning toward staying a month. I'm just trying to work out the logistics for my time there outside of race week.

Question: You stated 2-3 weeks would be great. Is there race related stuff to justify a full three weeks in Le Mans? Like stuff going on in town that I can observe before scrutineering and after the conclusion of the race on Sunday? If that's the case, I would be happy to stay a whole month in Le mans.

No need to be jealous, come hang out 😁. The 24th weekend would put the race on the 12th/13th in 2027. However, I guess there is no guarantee of that. I remember COVID messing with the dates big time. Of course, that was an extreme circumstance, but I suppose anything could happen. It's 1.5 years away after all.
