Not reading through 15 pages but what's everyone's plan?

Me and my mate are out there over this weekend, but we're are going from hull to Rotterdam on the Thursday night (24th) and driving down from there. We're doing a night in Amsterdam on the way home so this is why we are goin across to Rotterdam. Plus it works out at half the driving miles, which Is worth the extra money on ferries in my eyes, as I was completely f**ked last time at driving 650 miles each way

Currently we shall be over there in my MPS so keep your eyes open and come say hello :)

Oh, and I'm assuming folks in this thread are going over there on the 25th-27th may weekend? Apologies if not, like I say, not read the whole thread, just followed a link from another

The thread has changed alot from the initial starting post.

On Friday 25th morning around 3am myself, Lewis Taylor and dmallett will be driving down to Dover to catch the 6am ferry to Dunkirk. We will then head straight over to the Nurburgring to then set up camp and drive Saturday and Sundat around the circuit to then head back Monday around 7am ish to catch the 4pm ferry from Dunkirk to Dover. I think that is right!?

We certainly will keep an eye out for you, I will be in a blue 182 with black wheels, Dan in a Red 172 with black wheels and Lewis in a white 172 with......guess the colour of the wheels!!

Errr black? Lol?

We should arrive by about 2ish Friday afternoon. Where abouts are you camping? We are stayin at a hotel in adenau (sp) bit of a drive to the track but we've got three nights for the price of one in a hotel near the track. Plus we've got mates staying close to the ring entrance so will be spending most of our time with them probably

You got any plans for a night out while your stayin?

We are staying at a very local campsite that is huge (1000 pitches) and a stones throw away from the track. That's all I know.

We have no plans that I know of for the evenings apart from working on broken and bent cars and burning food on the bbq. You?

Scott your more than welcome to come out for a couple of lap's in my car at Nurburgring if you like, that's if you can be dragged away from the comfort of Rhys car with A/C lol!

I'm not even sure if my passenger is coming lol.
 
  ph1 172
lol

Scott can be thrown between both cars then!

In theory my seats will be even worst on the next couple of track days than at Snetterton Scott, as I will have fitted my AST's (thanks to Lewis!) and rear ARB. Corning like its on rails:)

It is only an evening Rhys but I cba with driving to and from Cambridge, leaving work early or taking half a day. Then driving home to properly pick up and Zack and then to Snetterton and etc. Rather have a lay in and a whole day off work;)

Thanks for the offer Lewis! Ill defiantly be up for that:) Thrown about in Rhys's or getting out of Lewis with a stuff back;)
I havent even dropped it to Soph I'm going yet;) haha

Id be really up for this trip would really appreciate someone sending me all the info if you could cheers
More the better :)

6am ferry from Dover to Dunkirk on the Friday 25th.
4pm ferry from Dunkirk to Dover on the Monday 28th.

If you can get the same times as we could either meet you on the way down OR at Dover, we're all meeting a Fourwentways services Friday morning (time unconfirmed yet) i'd imagine between 1-2am Shouldn't be too bad for you to get to as you'll come down the A1, and the services is about 10-15 mins from there i believe.

Need to be at Dover around 45 minutes before the ferry leaves.

I dont mind taking people out for a pax lap in mine. reasonably experienced, done around 65 laps now over 4 trips.

Also if anyone is interested stopping at spa on the way is well worth it. only just off the main road on the way. The weekend we are going they will be practising for the spa classic. we have been before and its free on the fri. some very very nice cars there! and the noise is amazing old turbo f1 cars, group c cars etc! spa is also a lovely track

Well was free last time we went so guessing it will be this time. It's literally 10 mins off the route as well and a good break in the journey.

We are on 6.50 Euro tunnel so will be there around the same time as u I think. Friend is towing his Clio so could be a bit slower

Staying in what is pretty much a woman's house lol. Little way out. But cheap have to drive past the camp site to get to the ring. There is a very nice Italian near us that all the hotel owners use. Be good if you joined us for a meal somewhere!
