1= Nige

Could be up for this have been talking about going only the other day at work

Count me and Adrian in :)

In what car is the question...

I'll check with work .

How much you looking at for those days?

Evo will be going :)

About £500-600 Gimpo

Come on people. It's the Ring, let's go! I will be booking this in the next couple of weeks. :doubleup:

I would but Sian will be due to drop in a matters of weeks so better not!

We will be going in the September for sure on the Nurburgring

Please,can someone will pm me details for Jackie ?


Jura

was hoping to go but money is not there for it.

Will have the car finished soon so would be up for this,

Sexpanther+1

Well I have sorted the time off work and organized a co-pilot! I do hope a few people decide to go?

I have been reading all the info on previous trips seeing what I need etc

I'm possible going to go from the 6th-10th?

Nige- would it be ok to put a link on Surrey about this to see if anyone there is interested or is the restricted to SES members?

Yes only if Anger can vouch for them 1st mate. We have an excelent rep at the hotel {worzel} palace & dont wish to upset Jackie. Pass it by him 1st as he's a mod on there. :five:

Ok I will drop Anger a PM and run it pass him first.

In regards to the hotel would you prefer it if it is booked as a group or can we reserve rooms individually as I might go for the couple extra days?

Makes no odds mate. I'm sure given notice you will get sorted. It a beautiful place & a couple of extra days is well worth it. :doubleup:

i would love to have the balls to go to the ring one day i know ild end up in the wall thats my problem :???:

Come join in you will never forget it. :twisted:

Due to have knee op then but otherwise would go:sadno:

That's not a good enough excuse Mr Fooi. You can get a knee brace :ninja:

its my clutch leg and want to drive the circuit:mrgreen:

Been looking on http://nurburgring.org.uk/ and the track is closed on the 8th, and only open in the evening on the 9th.

So if the plan is to go on the 7th thats the only day really to get on the track?

Thanks for that. Looks like they changed dates on me. So how about the 5,6,7 ?
05.10.2012 (Fr) 17:00–19:00 h (CET)
06.10.2012 (Sa) 13:00–19:00 h (CET)
07.10.2012 (So) 08:00–19:00 h (CET)
08.10.2012 (Mo) 17:00–19:00 h (CET)

Im good for the 5,6,7 though I would have to catch the evening ferry as my co-piliot is coming up from Devon that afternoon.

No problem we will have a pint or two waiting buddy. :drive:

Ok need this finalised now with exact numbers as this will be booked next week.

+49 2676 260. Ring Jacqueline & say your traveling over with me. If no room there then she has a friend around the corner with a b&b who will put you up. You can still eat at Jacqueline no problem. You will love it :doubleup:

Neil & Ray are now joining us. Should be fun getting my arse kicked off an Evo. NOT!!! :twisted:

Enjoy mate, good that you've got Neil to show your driving up too ;)

Can't wait now! Ferry booked Jackie booked. I should be able to follow Neil for aprox 60seconds :rofl:

That long ???? :lol:

Good but I'm not gong in Fugly. Hawk is flying me there (well you know what I mean) :rofl:

I tried jackie again Nige and mentioned yourself and SES and still had no luck!

I tried all the hotels on http://nurburgring.org.uk/ and only found one with
a vacancy and it was it's sister hotel which didnt have any parking plus not great reviews!

I managed to find a place called the RING-RACE-FLATS in adenau pretty close to the town centre and have booked there. (no bad reviews that I can find!)


I got a fairly good deal on it! luxury flat 90 euros a night, ok so no breakfast included but how many local brass do think I will get in that jacuzzi:doubleup::doubleup::doubleup:

http://www.ring-race-flats.de/41803.html

You can have a meal with us at Jackies over the whole weekend if you want to (Nigel's palace now)
'Neil & Ray will be there & you really need to meet them. Jackie will more than welcome you
The food is top notch. :doubleup:

On way back from Africa at the mo. Any news from Neil & Ray about the Ring trip on the 5th?

Nothing posted on SES.

We will be there sat lunch nige

I should arrive around lunchtime aswell, we should organise a meeting point.

We will be going to jackies first, unpack & give the car a once over then down to carpark mid afternoon hopefully.
if you want to pm your mobile number we can give you a call when we get there.
alternatively look out for a red evo X with black on top & give us a nod

How about meeting at 13.00 in the Rings Cafe. I will were a bright red rose on my Nurbergring T shirt. :rofl:

Looking very wet over there this weekend guys so no 888s for me. I will be running Goodyears & see how I get on. Std brakes & pads std suspension to. Car sounds fit & ready or some fun :twisted:

I wish I was coming with you, bring on next May. :drive:

Will be driving down on falken ZE912's and running pirrelli p zeros for the track, got more or less everything together, just trying to sort ring insurance with Gary.

Have a good trip guys :ok:

http://www.greenflag.com/breakdown-cover/european/ £33.50 :doubleup:

Thanks for the tip!! all sorted now.:wink:

Have a great time guys and only just a tad envious.........:yeah::yeah:

I'm here! Less than 390 miles took 6 fooking hours due to road works & my satnav. To late to go straight to the Ring so beers & a fantastic dinner will have to do. We are going straight to the Ring in the morn wet or dry we are going to have a bi of fun. The Scoob hasn't missed a beat & sorted a few E46 'M3's out on route to. :twisted: all in good fun. Looking forward to meeting up tommorow as its a bit sparse here without the usual bunch.

Take care mate.

Can find out some dates whilst youre there for next year????

Although the dates are normally not released till January.

So wish I could have gone mate hope you have a great time

Will be leaving in 4 hours!! should see you there lunch time tomorrow.

Enjoy your weekend mate, hope the weathers not too bad! :ok:

Lots of delays on route mate. :x

Not sure what's happened to sexpanther! We have tried to txt him with no luck.

Iam glad to see you are still with us,

and not in the trees. :whistle:

What is the condition of the ring, wet, damp, dry, slippery ?

Ooh err missus:whistle:

As some of you know i went to the Nurbugring recently. It was mainly to spend some father & son time in a very beutifull part of the world. It RAINED & RAINED alot. So in a std scoob no records were ever going to bo broke. We met up with Ray, Neil, & Gary. Had good food & Drink at Jackies. The car didnt miss a beat use any oil or water & gave a fantastic drive. Looking forward to next years vist there. I am going to try & arrange another trip before May if possible. There could well be three trips in 2013. Watch this space if you fancy it. :drive:

Glad you had nice time Nige, and glad the scoob done its job and got you there and back as well. Was there any major off,s whilst you were there, and track stay open. ?

Just seen a couple mates pics... Didn't look to wet ;)

Sunday was ok nice weather. No major offs really. Some nice drifting going on to. :drive:

Crazy locals in there old beamers ?

Exactly some of them were very good & others gave us a giggle by hitting things. I met up with a group of 6 M3 owners on the ferry all there for the weekend & doing a track day there on the Monday. £450 ish per car! Not a bad price when you consider the track wont have bikes on it & limited to 300 cars. :norty: I can see that being considered next year if the place stays open :twisted:

You didn't need to change your mapper then ??

Why would i want to do that? It ran perfectly. :worthy:

I mate with the GTR did the Monday... He has some great pics from FrozenSpeed

Unlike this one....

Shame. But sounds like the owners getting it all sorted out pretty quickly.

Nice looking hawk that :nod:
