Looking at taking a gaggle of cars out to the 'ring including an M14 Noble but apparently they are too low to get on the trains.

Has anyone heard of this or know otherwise?

Help!

No, but I'd be interested to know whether the M14 bit is true.........

Rubbish. I've used the chunnel loads of times, and no problem getting on or off.

Not sure about the 'never produced' M14, but any M12 type will be fine.

I think the best bet would be the tunnel, altho make sure is lower deck....a friend always goes via the tunnel in his GT3 which grounds out over a pin...

Tunnel is fine in an M400 on the lower deck.

Enjoy the Ring smile I went 2 weeks ago and had a cracking time. So did the 6 car and 3 bike accidents we saw yikes fortunately nobody was seriously hurt, but there was a LOT of money down the drain. Particularly a Porka who's driver was knocked unconscious after coming off. He ground to a halt along about 150 metres of armco and had the track shut while an ambulance attended because he was concussed. Hope he was insured - I was told that would probably have cost him about 5,000 Euros in armco repair/recovery/track closure costs before he's even repaired the car! frown

He passed out before the crash apparently, and wasn't insured...

No problems on the Tunnel, just make sure you go on the lower deck, I had no problems in my M12.
