Title: (National) Nurburgring, Germany
Post by: hersham boy on 17 September 2008, 23:20:49
I know i'm new here, only brought my miggy yesterday but i can wait to get her over to 'the ring' to try her out on a proper road. As you can see from my siggy i'm a ring nut. As my day job involves me taking people over to the nurburgring (its a crap job ;D and someone as to do it :D) I know the place inside out , and upside down on occasion!!! :-/ Anyway was thinking if anyone on here would like to have ago at the famous Northloop 13.2 miles of the most fun you can have on 4 wheels (2 wheels if your a complete nutter) I can arrange everything from ferry's to hotels saftey talks ect. (and get a very healty discount for all board members, thats easy as i'm the MD  ;D ;D). SO ANYONE UP FOR IT?
If you think you may be up for it but have any conserns just post here or send me a pm. Need a min of 5 cars and can cope with up to 100 8-). Even if you don't want to drive the Northloop its still a supurb trip. YOU CAN GET MORE INFO  @ www.nurburgringers.net

Don't want to tread on anybodys toe's.. :) Problem is i have a one track mind!! its ring ring ring!! Not many replys. I'm now getting withdrawal symptoms from the place and my next trip is so looooong away.

If im going, I aint doing half a job!  ;D

Could do with going to a track day over her first to get an idea of how the car handels! (can see me taking corners either A) FAR too slow   :-[, or B) far too fast  :o)

To slow IS GOOD. To fast is bad... No UK track day can prepare you for the Northloop.. But a good place to start if you have never done a track day is Bedford Autodrome. great safe place to learn your car limits.  no arnco to hit just loads and loads of grass run off area's. and a great track.

I'll be over in the middle of May. Only bought the Miggy last year at very short notice to take to the 'ring on our annual pilgrimage, as I had to sell my existing turbo-stead  :'(

   Still, the Miggy proved an inspired choice - comfy pan-european cruising, hi-speed autobahn runs and plenty of sideways (albeit slow) 'ring action. Managed to get all the way back to Dunkirk before the suspension gave up the ghost.  ::)
      All good fun for the £460 purchase price. Will have it all up and running properly (including a few performances mods) this time with a bit of luck.  8-)

   I STRONGLY advise investing in a set of performance tyres and a thorough brake-system check before you go.
