Gutted I probly won't be able to go unless I can get a sup quicktime! Possibly not the best idea unless your one of the few 21 yr olds that can actually drive, the ring will bite your ass if you go to fast and if you go too slow. Dont wish to sound condecending but what have you driven car wise ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 PM sent to those going, regarding the accommodation bookings & deposits. Cheers! Sorry to anyone else who'd like to join in, buy it's a headache sorting out accommodation (it's a busy weekend at the GP circuit (DTM race) which makes things tricky) so unless you ask VERY nicely, very soon, I'm afraid the trip is now 'closed' to newcomers (see message edited into post 1 yesterday). You can always stick your name down as a 'reserve' in case someone drops out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just concerned if youd no experiance with powerful cars as the ring isnt the place to be learning. Sounds like youve got enough but be cautious at the ring as its very hard to memorise where your going unlike silverstone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
