I've been to the ring before on a tourist day, but looking to plan a trip in 2012 with the Caterhams to do a track day at the 'ring and one Spa also on the same trip.

Ideally the dates would be no more than one day apart - instead of trawling through every TDO, any companies offer a combo event on these two?

Destination Nurburgring are over there next week to do both tracks, they'll be at the 'ring on the 2nd and 3rd and then Spa on the 4th.

I'm not sure if they'll be doing it again in 2012, but they could add a Spa day to the end of DN5 or 6. scratchchin

The Circuit Days Spa Trips in April and October are always Monday and Tuesday with the Wednesday being the tourist thing at the ring.

We are taking 3 sevens over tomorrow for the Monday. Will probably do next year as well.

The OP is asking for a track day at both though not TF.

To be honest your best bet will be simply to check the limited number of 'ring track days and then see if Spa have anything to suit.

Alternatively message the likely UK TDOs - Destination Nurburgring (and Circuit Days for the Spa bit), Bookatrack and RMA - and say what you want - how about it?

Not a bad idea at all.

As soon as the likely TDO's have any useful information, everyone will know about it! We're all hoping for that dream ticket of Spa+Ring in the same week, but it's not as easy as it sounds unfortunately.

Just done exactly that this weekend ... Spa was awesome, have been going to the Ring for years and after the state of the driving,the overcrowding and the poor safety this weekend I have to say the returning to the Ring in a hurry to drive the track won't be topping my agenda.... however i'd definitely be keeping my eyes out for a track day there ...but nicht bar tourist fahren for me until they change a few things for the better out there...

Sorry edited to say this sis the company who can organise both

Good call - not sure if RSR do track days without renting their cars though? Keen to use my car.
