I haven't been for a while but racing in July at the Ring but fancied a go on the Nordschliefe. Have you been on that recently?
Went for my first time last year and did a few laps with a friend and loved every second!. We were also very lucky as it was quite quiet for the Saturday and half of Sunday!. Was Ideal for the first time.mmm-five said:
We're heading out on the 6am ferry on the 11th and coming back late on the 14th.
Hotels seemed particularly busy this year, and our normal hotel is full of Japanese guests.
Yeh all the normal hotels are full when we last looked - I think there is racing on the Friday at the GP circuit! which may make it more busier than usual Hotels seemed particularly busy this year, and our normal hotel is full of Japanese guests.

Hi All,
I'm going to the Nurburgring on 11th - 12th of may 2012 too..
Not sure if anyone is interested or not, but...
I have a ring taxi booked for the 12th @ 10am with a spare (rear) seat, if any one fancies taking it for a third of the cost, approx £65? New M5 560bhp...
You will enjoy the taxi as the new m5's are quick now.Hope it will be dry as the april bank holiday was very cold and mostly wet.If you see me in the paddock come over and say hi and if i have time i will take you for a lap a little faster than the taxi I'm going to the Nurburgring on 11th - 12th of may 2012 too..

Thanks for the offer Andy! Which car are taking? (I'd pay the lap fee for a passager ride..)Andy
It's my first time at the ring, far too excited already
We're renting a Stage 2 swift for the friday evening, so I hope it will be dry too.

Im taking my e92 m3 as pictured on my profile.It has uprated brakes, suspension, wheels, tyres etc and is good fun.i keep the car over there and fly over now,but if the weather gives a lot of rain then i will not be going as i am going again 2 weeks later.Dont worry about the money as im going round anyway .If it is wet on the friday when you hire the car just really take your time as it can be unbelievably slippery in places and there really is not a lot of room for errors.It's my first time at the ring, far too excited already

Yer, I hope it will be a good + dry!
Andy, your M3 sounds like a beast, hope you can make it / give me a ride .
mmm, modded M3 @ the ring… sounds like you’re living my car dreams.. :/
I’ve been watching Dales videos on the ‘wet line’ and It looks incredibly slippery and unpredictable..
Keep telling myself to take it easy, either way, last thing I want is a €2500+ error to ruin my day.
I’m taking our Black Civic GT 2.2 cdti, with 18” grey alloys Reg plate F6 DAY, we’ll be the ‘NOOBs’, excited, but not quite sure what to do , so please say hello.
Can anyone recommend good places to eat / drink on an evening?

The paddock is nice for lunch which is just up the road and you can eat outside if the weather is nice.The Pistenklause restaurant is a must for a meal but friday and saturday nights are busy and the service can be very slow if it is,so sunday night is sometimes better or book it in advance.It is the restaurant that Sabine Shmitz family own and it is covered in photos and signatures of famous racing drivers and the odd bits off cars hanging around.Adenau is very close and has lots of places to eat and some nice cafes to sit outside if the weather is nice.In the Pistenklause at night the guy from frozen speed photography is there and if you give him your reg no he will find all the pics of your car he has taken and then you can buy a few off him to remind you of the trip !!Andy, your M3 sounds like a beast, hope you can make it / give me a ride .

Snap, last time I went it was wet in places in the morning, just means you need to be extra careful and judge the roads. There is a pizza place in Adenau that serves amazing pizzas and should be there Saturday nightAndy, your M3 sounds like a beast, hope you can make it / give me a ride .

Yes pinocchio's is superb and the pizzas are huge and it is very reasonable but it can also get very busy on friday and saturday nights.Gassing Station | Track Days | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
