Manthey Racing are holding a full Nordschliefe track day on Wednesday 29th June - 09:00 to 17:00.

Full circuit - open pit lane - no boikers (sorry) - all day - heaven on Earth :driving:

They'll be demo-ing some of their fancy kit and racecars, with instructors etc, full support, catering, etc.

Should be of particular interest to Porsches, but other makes are apparently welcome.

Full details here:

I think it's currently undersubscribed - with 50-odd cars for the whole day - 490 Euros/car.

See ya there ...

I've not been on one of their track days before (I'm not actually sure they've every run any) - but they normally do things very well and given the number of cars going and the size of the track - you'll be lucky to see any other cars while lapping!
I'm very happy with the public laps that I do (> 200/year) and am not normally looking to spend extra money on Ring track days - but this will be a real treat - mixing it with some race cars, virtually empty track, no bikes, mechanics on hand, etc etc.
I know some of the racers instructing and they're track knowledge (and speed) is superb - in fact I was studying some MoTeC data from some laps only last night.

Was there with RMA week before last and only around 40 cars - superb. Have e-mailed Manthey to book it.

I don't suppose I'd be welcome from Ireland in a 2003 Mini Cooper S!!!!

I'd love to go. Perhaps you fellas would have an idea of what defines an acceptable car?

I totally understand otherwise, as it is aimed at Porsche enthusiests/ owners. Enthusiest yes, owner no!!!

I would have thought it would be fine, but ask Jan Erren,
jan.erren@manthey-motors.de (phone +49 2691 933737) to be sure.
