Default Nurburgring run 9th/10th May

Hi,
a couple of reprobates, namely myself and darrenjoe90 are planning a run to the Nordschleife on the weekend of 9th/10th May. This was all cooked up on Sunday during a 5 minute conversation about trying to sneak over there in the spring.

This will be a trip to hit the track on Sat and Sun (the track is open the full day on both days) and sink a few beers and wurst on the Sat night.

We have the chance of an 2 apartments at our favourite hotel (Hotel an der Nordschleife) which is situated right next to the track. Lots of Brits stay there as the location great and the breakfast is pretty darn good too. It will be about €48 per person per night inc breakfast, though that would involve room sharing.

If anyone wants to join us for the weekend you would be more than welcome to. If the idea of an apartment with strangers doesn't thrill you, we will be able to find alternative accommodation fairly easily. But I need to get an idea of numbers this week.

If you want to know anything more, drop me a PM

Nice…but 2800 Euros.. Yikes - that's the price of an S8!*

Sadly, due to priors, could not consider it. I am a Standard Bearer at the Arewas Arboretum on the tenth.

Hi,
I don't know whether I shared this clip before.

The final 10 secs of the clip features a couple of cars you might recognise. Lets hope for less of a liquid challenge on track in 11 days time.
