O.K Many of the people I usually go with are not committing. Is there anybody (Convoy)I could join. It would be myself and a mate. We are up for the crack, this will be my 6th time, interests include, Motorsport, anything adrenalin based, women, beer, etc, etc
Not necessarily in that order, the "etc" at this stage are confidential.
Would be happy to meet up pre trip at a track day perhaps.

I'll be going over for that weekend (along with the rest of Western Europe) but am catching a thurs lunchtime ferry to get some semblance of decent laps in before the usual chaos ensues! I'm trailering my caterham, but can tow it at 95 (obv. not in the UK, cos the feds get a bit excited about anything >60.1 mph).....

I guess if you wait until closer to the day, you'll get a better response. You may have a problem booking accom if you've not already done so.

The problem still remains that I haven't got anywhere to stay for the long easter weekend. I can't sleep in the car for the weekend!

There will be a very large contingent of Brits at the ring that weekend for sure.


Most of the GT3 Titanic lot will be out there for the 2 day trackday at Spa on the Tues and Weds (around 25+ GT3's)
a lot of us go over on the Saturday before and do the ring on the Sunday, and some will be doing Monday Also.

Most people will be staying in Spa though.

O.K I am going to leave probably very early thursday (chunnel) and return Monday. However would love to join the GT3 boys at Spa on Tuesday. Who do I contact?
As far as accommodation is concerned I could stay in Adenau, but for us the trip is'nt just about the RING, we would also like to meet up on the night, beers, food, etc

Spa is being run by Autotrack, it usually fills up pretty early, but you may be lucky.

Aswell as all us GT3'ers there is always a good selection of high end exotica there, and it's a fab track.


If you want to meet up for beers etc, with other brits, best place would be the Pistonklause in Nurburg.

....and a few old Golfs

Pretty sure the places that Easytrack have taken are all gone.

Iggy, you'd have more money for 'travelling expenses' if you didn't travel so far through Adenau village!!! You can turn around when you get past the Blau Ecke!

We're staying in Nurburg that weekend so no doubt see you in the Pistenklause

I'll be in this old shed.

By any chance do you tow your Caterham with a silver mk4 Golf?

Seem to remember a British caged Yellow Caterham out there last summer.
