Scottish Region Nurburgring Trip: 26th - 30th June 2008

steve,

I would be up for this but it would have to be next year. if you were to set a date as you say sometime next June then I would be 100%.

it's just a case of trying to get others to commit.

As said above, I used those dates to give indicative costs. Obviously we can all go most weekends, but I needed to start somewhere!  

Happy to say 6 or 12 months, but we did that last October and people indicated their interest cost depending. Well the costs are above, will I set a date in September, or next June?

Shame it`s such short notice

 

A trip as been mentioned at the last 2 AGM`s i have been at,but nothing ever has come about them.

Rich did post up about the Ring on these date IIRC and he is going along with Gee (Thru Evotechnik)

 

Prob is we can`t get folk to pay up for 75mph Karts never mind a trip to the Ring

 

Defiantly a good idea to go via some organized events guru
