Ring and Spa in a weekend!

A mate of mine and I are thinking about doing this,
on the cheap of course. Up at the crack of dawn
(lovely lady), at Dover for 3am, Calais by 5am and a 3
hour drive to Spa. In the past we've booked 1 double
room with about 5 pair of smelly feet ending up on
the floor/shower/corridor. Most hotels have a couple
of spare rooms so there's rarely a drama. Up good
and early next morning for the 1 hour drive to
Nurburgring and have a squirt about until you get
bored (yeah, right....). Make a move for Calais when
they kick us out.

Totally unorganised other that checking to see if both
circuits are open for business over the planned
weekend (i.e when both tracks are open).

There will of course be excessive drinking on Sat
night and spot prizes for the person who looks most
like a freshly born Gerbil the morning after.

Sound like a laugh?

Not sure mate; the problem seems to be getting
onto Spa without being iovolved in a megabucks
trackday. I've emailed a couple of folks over there -
April is probably best to stand a chance of vaguely
decent weather.

Might give Spa a miss and do Hockenheim and
'Ring instead, or get a ferry to Holland and do
Zandvoort as my mate knows some of the
instructors there.

We shall keep you all posted!

This sounds exactly what me and mate are planning to do next year about the same sort of time! About End of April time!! Amazing how petrolheads think alike!

Did it a month or so ago and it was brilliant.  Was there when Clarkson was wobbling round in that Diesel jag...

sprechen sie deutcsh? .. nah, neither do I ...  but it normally helps.

Maybe if you ring a local BMW garage/car club near the ring and ask them what the craic is.
