Will that mean another Datsun is coming?

Sounds like it :ok:

Cool!!:ok:

Sorry my updates and replies have been a little slow lately, busy at work and when at home I have been configuring new Cisco internet/network stuff, so have been without connection.

Any how, hopefully after this weekend I should be a bit more free to check PM's and this thread.

The Datsuns will be taking over! :yeah:

hmm, maybe i should look at Datsuns as well as clio's and cooper s's?

Just have one of each Si, that's normally how you do things haha!

/wave at the datsuns, the 200SX is a cracking car Si, ;)

Had a look at the nurburgring site, I see there is a new payment plan, app etc
(Cam 1) shows the the track it ready for all you scoobie drivers.

I'll be keeping a look from the uk on the cams for any of our crew :ok:

Heard about this but it was a while ago and there weren't too many details at the time, will have a look now and see what the latest is. Want to be able to load my existing laps on there from last year's card.

passport photos sorted

Guys at Hastings you recommended were very good
Forms all filled out just need to find a police officer to sign it for me now

I expect someone will be able to put a cross on it for you.. :whistle:

Just found some deposits in the Paypal account whilst in there for Prodrive trip, so have added 'Confirmed' to first post.

Thanks Scott, I meant to speak to you about it, but have had some work related distractions this last couple of weeks.

Will be out at the ring this weekend as well 🙂

Paid my deposit
Can i confirm is that £50 per person per person or just £50 deposit?
Need to add Lucy next to my name if that makes any difference.

Now need to book the eurostar DONE

Just need to find someone now who will give break down cover for a 19 year old car

Try ADAC breakdown, I think the guys will have the number on here

AA covered my car and they use ADAC for recovery in Germany .:doubleup:

Thanks guys will give them a try

Here you go Neil

"Telephone enquiries and to join and pay my debit/credit card phone offices Tel No. 00 49 89767 66632 and speak to one of the four staff who speak fluent English.

Yes remember that well :-(, and ADAC used the AA in the UK when my engine decided it didn't like piston number 3 :shock:

Who do people use for insurance on the ring?
I doubt my company will cover me for this. Need to check they even cover for Europe.

Got a track day quote for £277 but not sure if it counts as a track day or open day when we are going?

Youre better of going with keith michaels and speak to gary moulson as they cover for europe and btw they do track cover too .

Gary at Keith Michaels for me or ADAC

Just to confirm, your trackday quote will not cover Touristenfahrten which is the open days we use.

Speak to Gary Moulson but insurance at the Ring is a grey area at best, always has been. Just don't bin it ;)

It's a very grey area, as Steve says Touristenfahrten is not a track day, no Marshalls, no emergency services dotted around the track and no control over the numbers and skill of people on the track, it is effectively a public toll road but you'll notice every UK insurance policy has a clause about not covering the car on the Nurburgring.

Morning guys/girls

On the original post about the trip there was a timetable and a route we were taking but that is no longer there.
Does anyone have a copy of that? or can anyone just repost it?

Also as modern baking scares the life out of me. I have paid the £50 deposit for the room ( I think that was what it was for ). Do I need to pay the rest to someone via paypal? Or do I pay the rest for the room in cash upon arrival? I don't have the option for bank transfers. Well unless I go into the branch then its just a pain.

I have sorted breakdown cover and insurance is there anything else I need to do?

Sorry for all the questions but being a ring newbie I don't want to get to the last minute and have not done something.
Thanks

Hi Neil, You pay Jackie in cash at the end of your stay. You will have a tab for any drinks you have and meals you eat and settle up with Jackie on the morning you leave.

You can also forward funds to Jackie eg room costs before you go. Then you only have to think about fuel, laps, food and drinks etc once you are there.

Just remember Jackie only accepts cash once you are there unlike the rest of the world :ok:

European Health Insurance Card and travel insurance.

If you want to borrow high vis, triangle, first aid kit and fire Extinguisher just let me know.

Those who have been before will probably have most of this stuff already. For those who have not been before, the below list is invaluable. Most of the items in the "For The Car" section are actually law in Europe, so I would advise that you make sure that you do / have these things arranged.

I'm sure that most of you who have been before will have this stuff, but it's well worth double checking, just in case. Anything that you haven't got can be purchased at places like Halfords.
BLUE are the ones that are Law in Europe! Please remember that the breathalysers are a requirement in France .
But apparently there are no penalties for not having one :cuckoo:
