Title: My Nurburgring Experience - DN9 (pic heavy)
Post by: Croz13 on 15 August 2013, 22:26
First of all not sure if this is the right section so sorry if its wrong

Went to the nurburgring at the beginning of August for the first time with my mate in his clio 200. Did this through Destination Nurburgring which was a two day track day rather than the more risky tourist day. Was absolutely superb, some experience might take the mk7 sometime (if it ever comes lol). While there also had the M5 ring taxi experience & tried the famous steak on the stone :D
Also seen a red mk6 there at the same time that was from the forum?

Anyway thought I'd share afew of the many pics taken & will update with vids when get chance to sort/edit

Darren's days are excellent and much safer than TF.  I'm sure you must have had a great experience.  :cool:

went last year on TF and was going to go this year but doubt that's going to happen now...

really want to go on one of these proper track days... but always hmm and ahh cause of all the bigger cars such as ferrris and m5s and stuff... would always feel like im getting in there way and holding them up...

You won't feel like you're getting in the way and you won't be holding them up, especially if you have a passenger who has your back.

When we've been on them with the silver shed we have been far from the slowest car on track anyway.

Do it - go with Darren - you will have an absolute BALL.

7hrs 40minutes from Calais to Nurburg is entirely doable.
