my plan for the monday is to stay at the nurburgring. there is a massive new complex just been built there with resturants, motoring shops including an audi shop and loads of things to see and do. also there is ring-werk. it is like a motoring musium that also includes the fastest roller coaster in the world. http://www.nuerburgring.de/en/ringwerk.html

Had all four rooms confirmed. +++:D

The nearest hotel to the Ferry Port is the Premier Inn
Dover (Eastern Ferry Terminal)

@ £79 for a twin room per night.

I intend to book a room over the weekend.

I've been looking at the map and the timings for the trip.

Route planner is saying 6 hrs from Calais to Edersee, thus I guess the plan is to arrive after the airfield trip on the Friday?

Also I take it we are planning to leave early on Sunday to give ourselves the maximum time at the Ring. Having looked at the route planner its a 3.5 hour drive regardless of route.

I like to have a plan in my mind before going anywhere hence the questions.

Plan on 5 hours driving. Will see us there early pm for a few starter beers!

I calculate I will be doing over 2000 miles that weekend! :eek:

i also plan on doing a good few miles about 1600 and expect to be spending around £450 in petrol. could save on fuel cost by driving at 56 miles per hour :tuttut: but dont think we will be doing that and i dont think google maps would be good for timings as our average speed may not be the same as google intended +++

Your usual then! :D

tickets bought for the nurburgring. got them from a tyresmoke member that had a few spare. almost ready now +++

Getting very excited about this :)
