Nurburgring trip



  ph1 172
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!

Sounds very nice:)

Spa event is called spa classic. says £10 entry on website but we never paid before. last year they asked for 5 euros to park but well worth it. Can walk everywhere in all the pit garages etc and all the people where very friendly chatting about the cars. plus standing in a garage when they start old f1 cars is pretty cool!

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.

what month are we talking about?
 
From Fourwentways services to Dover is 117miles, which works out at roughly 2hours.

Need to be at Dover by 5, so services at say 2.30am?

It then takes roughly 4 and a half hours to get to the ring, working out about 260miles.

Think thats correct.

*the above is taken from google maps*


As for compulsory items we must carry it seems every person in the vehichle must carry a hi-vis, a warning triangle for breakdowns. Also reflector things on headlights to stop us blinding people and a GB badge on the vehicle if not on the plates.
Thats the only things i found that were a must, i may be wrong lol.

If people get stuck and forget things such as light deflectors etc. then the WH Smiths at the ferry terminal sells it all at not that bad a price.

^you hoping to get there for around 5? Be good for us all to get on the ferry together. Would make a good picture!
Does any one have an idea of how many clios are going?

All going well we should be there a little earlier than that.

There will be 3 of us and then maybe a few others that are already there that we no doubt will try and meet.

^Sounds like a plan. Can't wait. Can't believe the missus gave me a pass especially as she'll be 35 weeks pregnant by then!

Your not supposed to carry gas bottles containing gas for safety reasons. I've never heard of anyone being pulled for it though! I'm taking some small gas canisters for the stove can't not have a morning brew. Priorities an all.
 
Ill find out, if not ill strap it to the back of my seat.

Got a badass bbq/hot plate thing that looks like this, was thinking of bringing it as it goes into a little bag lol.
