[Oranoco]

Superb pics. My trip keeps being pushed back thanks to the wife. It's always "next time"

 

[MintyS3]

Im going back next year. One of the best bits was getting pished on the ferry there. Newcastle to Amsertdam.

I would recommend Center Parcs. About 15 miles from the ring. Well its about 4 but the road length is 15 miles. Get your own villa, supermarket and a swimming pool.

Cant wait!

Nice pics, I went to the Ring in August, tried to get on both Monday evening and Wednesday evening but on both occasions the track was closed moments before we started due to accidents, totally gutted!

Would of loved to of seen what laptime Id of gotten in this, nearest it got to the ring was the carpark...

Cracking pics ....wish I had a Porshe 911 Carerra 4 to do teh Nurgburg Ring....would not be the same in a A4 2.5TDi Avant Quattro Sport (sport being an interesting take)

Did you see anyone stack their pride and joy ?

What do you do for insurance for a track day out of curiosity ?

 

[HAWKEY_A3]

think there was a high roller session on but managed to get three laps in 10.40 being the 3rd lap
we are going back in may an realy cant wait

well seen a porsche 911 on about a j plate i think it was parked against a nice concrete wall which didnt move untill the track was closed at 7.30

as for insurance i did look into it but you are looking at £80 a day and tbh i will be taking it out next time i go over

Agreed. Got back yesterday. Sunday was closed no end of times cos of a few fatal accidents... Had one guy crash right infront of me... Had to swerve round him. That was pretty scary. Was an amazing weekend though!

Awesome photos dude - im really keen to make the trip!! I'll be heading across on the sea cat from Belfast to Liverpool and then to London!! Having trouble how to estimate the financing though?? How much did you spend on average onm the trip mate if you dont mind me asking???

 

[David]

I spent £370, inc ferry, a night in kent, 3 nights at the ring, food, diesel, 4 laps and shedloads of beer. Had a passenger though so we split it between two...

in total inc fuel i think i went through about £500 that was everything and we did hit the beer hard the first night as the track was closed till the following day
