I am definatly going to the Nurburgring (http://www.nurburgring.org.uk/) in April (just waiting for the opening dates for next year)

We will be leaving on iether late late friday night or very early saturday morning.

Expect to be by the ring at 8am ish.

And will return home sunday evening 11pm ish at the ferry in france.

The journey from London is 350 miles each way which equates to roughly

3 tanks all in or £150

Ferry tickets, will try get weekend special.

Hotel accomodation is 8 miles outside the circuit very nice and works out roughly at 20 squid.

There is lovely strech of autobhan on the way there and no speed limits
you dont need helmets for the circuit and no scruteneering.

It is the best weekend away i can think of. If you are interested
ill send more info.

You read my thoughts !

Inspired by Top Gear last night I was thinking the exact same thing, and how good a day out would that be if we got the T5-Team together and took it on by storm

after clarkson spent all day getting the diesel jag round in under 10 minutes....I think it was 9 59 the hot blonde chick got in and went round in something like 9 20? and that was her first run in the car ! ok she knew the track still impressive though.
