Add track insurance, spares, repairs, tyres, brake pads, pre/post trip maint.

Then you are all-inclusive :-)

Sold the Exige David, Its still on the forum and i'm really missing it.....even though i've been stuck on a ship since. I reckon the Audi would still be fun on the ring and spa as they are fast and flowing...that said if its September then that gives me time to perhaps find something more suitable :thumbsup

Got an RS4 I use as everyday car(not that I use a car every day) , had it a year and a half now. Sold the Exige to free up some funds for the house and maybe some other things but i can see something else filling the empty space in the garage sooner rather than later to be honest.....

Hi Guys

Just got a reminder about this!

Does anyone fancy the triple header - Spa & 2 days at the Ring? Ultimate trip surely?

I'm up for it. Well, Spa and 1 day at the ring at least. Not sure myself or the car would survive 2 full days at the ring lol

Good point well made....can't really argue with that logic :thumbsup

Any hotel recommendations for Spa?

ok so for me then I'm looking to book the following:-

Geordie express on evening of 26th
Night at la source on the 27th
Spa track day 28th then on to Nurburgring area (hotel TBC although Tiergarten would be 1st choice I believe)
Nurburgring track day 29th
Nurburgring track day or "sightseeing/touristy" day 30th
Geordie Express back on 1st

Who's in then?! :)

I fancy it but too many uncertainties to commit at the moment
