YUPYUP I may be a scruff and do camping!

 

[e3silversurfer]

for those interested, it is possible to go over from newcastle to netherlands and then onwards to the ring

@vicky

gives you the chance to get to amsterdam to buy some "stuff" for your collection

 

[vickydink]

ELVIN! im shocked! Tempting though! might make a good weeks holiday of it

 

[e3silversurfer]

if I am going I might take the amsterdam route. race you guys there (within speed limits of course )

 

[vickydink]

You not stopping in Dam Elvin?

 

[e3silversurfer]

depends. not sure if I need to get anything of there except fresh supplies of bread, fruits, milk and juice

 

[e3silversurfer]

[vickydink]

MAYBE, HOW FAR IS IT AWAY FROM BRIGG?

 

[e3silversurfer]

what brigg?? sorry I dont know slangs and shortforms used by you guys yet

 

[vickydink]

how far is it from scunthorpe then or hull?

 

[e3silversurfer]

if it is the Brigg which I am looking at on google maps, it is 2 hours drive up to newcastle

and it is 4 hours to Dover

 

[e3silversurfer]

from amsterdam it is 3hour to get to the ring

from calais it is 4 hours to get to the ring

it is faster for me from newcastle

 

[vickydink]

brigg in north lincs elvin? that isnt bad! ok who fancies amsterdam?

 

[e3silversurfer]

hmmm might consider it but have to start saving money now would £30 per month do starting from now?? its june now.... so..... £360.... still not enough

You could just about do it on £360 Elvin. You can buy single Nurburgring tickets if you just want to go round once to say you've done it - no need to buy 4 or 8 at a time. About 15 euros or something for a lap.

Camping is cheap and you don't need to go mad with eating and drinking.

You'll not regret going - promise. k:

 

[crystalpuma]

19 euros for a single lap

 

[Dal]

Inflation for ya. Still not that bad for the best racetrack in the world.

Sorry Neil, removed a duplicate post:

I'd definitley be up for it next year - just as long as it's not in March through to May - I'm away again then.

But when I came back the other had gone too inkeye:

 

[Dal]

That would have been me deleting the other one at the same time! Too bloody efficient..

:lol:

I think June would be the best time to go Neil, so you should be fine to come along.

Sorry about the duplicate, my internet connection is pathetic in the evenings.
