:confused: 10 of what fella?, walkie talkies with a 5km range should be ok. they have 18 different channels and im sure they used them on the last over seas trip ;)

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

10 x Motorola GP340 c/w battery, aerial, belt clip and programmed as required @ £4.25 each per week
1 x 6 way multi charger @ no extra charge
5 x spare batteries @ no extra charge

I dont know if these would be of interest? they would work in Europe

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

That sounds good Iain.

What does everyone else think?

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

Well i have bought a set that has 8 channels and 38 sub channels which would work with those as Iain is describing.
get those if you guys want. walkie talkie / handset, there the same thing :doubleup:

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

Get them if you wish as £4.25 is hardly going to brake the bank.

I do how ever already have some. :nod:

What would be good is some with a longer range say 10 miles,

so that we know where people are, for safety on the RING.

Also so we know how far Silver surfer is behind. :rofl: :rofl:

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

What shall we do post them up or shall we have another evening meet at a pub before we go for last minute thoughts???? :beer:

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

Dont forget the meeting,

On the 23rd at Beachy Head. :doubleup:

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

Oh yeah, good thinking, good job we have you on here Biggy boy!! :10:

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

Hi there as mentioned earlier in the posts i am now tagging along with scott. I will try to make the meet on the 23rd just to say hello again. I have a guide/track rules booklet from last year so will bring it with me to the meet. Might be helpful?
Hopefully see you soon :doubleup: :doubleup:

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

Right then lads, got the stickers back.

I have got 2 copies of each name done just in case.

There was however 3 copies of Scotts one, so I whacked it on a window at work and tok a quick snap.

£92 :shock: In their defence when I split my turbo up-pipe the other year they had me recovered within the hour. The girl on the phone did chuckle when I told her where I was :whistle:

It's a bit of hassle but I'd recommend ADAC cover. It's the German equivilent to the The AA only much much larger. I have their European policy which covers me anywhere in Europe for €79 with better benefits that AA European cover. ADAC is also the only company that will recover you from the track if anything happens otherwise it's a €200 recovery fee even if you breakdown/run out of fuel.

As for breaking down in the UK; they speak English and ADAC sub-contract the work to The AA.

Whats the best way to get ADAC cover, as the website is all German.
I need to renew 2nd week of June, so may aswell switch to ADAC a bit early.

cheers

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st

Martyn

Will this give us enough time to get to East Grinstaed to pick up Greig?

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

BP petrol station in Dover is a good place to meet. If you all fill your petrol tanks up this saves multiple stops the other side and petrol is cheaper in the UK ;)

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

Good point Mark.

Mine is mapped for V Power though, so need to find a Shell in Dover.

One quick question, with regards V Power, when we were in france just before Christmas, it was 98ron as opposed to 99ron here. Is that the same in Germany?

Also, I take it there is a shell garage or two around and about the ring?

Cheers! :doubleup:

Beat ya! :wave:

Your sticker is just a pig with your name being belched from his snout! ;)

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

Not sure where the nearest Shell petrol station is to Dover, maybe a Tescos with 99 is nearer?

No Shell garages near the Ring, well less than 20 miles away.

2 petrol stations nearby. 98 is available at the ED petrol station which is the closest and 100 at the Aral petrol station in Adenau. I run mine mainly on 98 as it is €1.20 compared to the €1.30 the 100.

I filled up with V-Power in Belgium once... it was 95 :splat:

I have never filled up with V-Power in Germany however I believe it's 100.

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

Thanks for the info Mark. Once again, much appreciated. :10:

Are you going to be there by the way?

Ahhhhhhhh and another thing, sorry to be a pain in the "Arris". Martyn has tried booking the Argentinian Steakhouse for the Steaks but has yet to get a reply after 3 e-mails to them. Anything you could advise on? Someone to contact etc?

Cheers matey :mrgreen:

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

I'm at the Nurburgring 24hr race from Wednesday 20th - Monday 25th May. Dependant on work I may just stay out in Germany and see you lot on the Friday otherwise I'll get a lift over Friday night with my mate. It's handy having a car in Germany :lol:

I'll get a mate in Germany to book a table at the PK for you. Please PM with numbers, date and time.

The nearest I have found is a Scheilden which is about 35 miles away tend to use it on the journey down otherwise I put in the best ron rated I can find :whistle: :whistle:

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

paid my european breakdown cover today :doubleup: but still no word on my turbo report :doubledown:

mmmmmmm still gotta sort track insurance! :confused:

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

It's not a trackday when open to the public, it become a public road. A trackday policy will unlikely have the 3rd party liability required by German law. Most people take their chances and drive without insurance but be aware of the financial consequences if you do.

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

He wont do it fella as i dont have a policy with him! :doubledown:

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

I, like 90% of everyone, just use the 98ron from ED petrol station next to the Dottinger Hohe straight. I occasionally fill up with 100ron from Aral in Adenau when heading to the track in the morning or joining the track at the Breidscheid entrance.

Re: SES @ Nurbergring May 29th - June 1st
 

I will be taking a chance with the insurance, if i stack it, then i will cut my loses and run :doh:
