Porsche 996 GT2,i know the nordshliefe quite well drove about 400 laps but could still be interested to learn lines how much would this be and is it by the hour?

[Sean Edwards]

Very nice. I don't mind doing it on an hourly basis, but would obviously need to fill the day up in hour slots. It's £450 for a full day, so I would guess around £85 an hour, as long as I caught a lift over with someone.

7th march at the ring can be snowy/icy - I would be very reluctant to commit to booking an instructor at £450 per day (!!!!) if it got cancelled - you could use someone like Sabine Schmit (lady from top gear on the ring episode, winner of 24 hour race and drives the ring taxi) for much less circa £200 per day and no-one knows more than she does about the ring- if you want her contact details e-mail me.

There are lots of talented ring experts local to the track who you could book without incurring any fees if the weather was rubbish.

I thought she was alot more than £200 a day ? In the New wrx

Thanks for the offer but i think 450 for the day or 85 an hour is a bit steep for me

Sean, clearly you are a top notch racer, but what's your experience at the ring? Do you get to do VLN or anything?

You might as well stray on Monday for the 75 Experioence trackday.

Good insurance in case the weather doesn't cooperate on the 7th.
