Prices are steep out there. I recall paying a little over 3k for all my activities with RSR, which included a tour of the region....

Spending £k's to hire a car and do a few laps is way out of my league.

I just bought a Renault, put new tyres and brakes on it, paid for 7 laps at 30euros each and that was that. Still have the Renault.

Renting a car seems a bit of a pricey way to do things.

The Apex 7 Up is €80 per lap inclusive.

Obviously insurance excesses apply should the worst happen.

Small group of us going to Schnelle Schwaben track day on June 18. Avoiding TF as it's far too busy. Couple of us: first timers. Lap times? furthest thing on our minds. It's a country road we're not familiar with, so we'll just take it easy. We've all day! why rush?

Atglaw won’t clarify anything on this when pushed for details.
Indeed - I make a point of ignoring his half-views. He either said too much or not enough but I appreciate he is essentially here to drum up business.

OP, I have done many TF events but on balance I'd probably not do it again as track days there are so much better to enjoy the track IME.
