we're thinking of flying over.... gonna stretch it 8th-13th if we can, could be good, and a lot cheaper.... especially if we can get a car with a £200 excess like last time! not even worth sh@gging my tyres!

Thumbs up

Count the RS lot in as per usual. When the dates are confirmed, if someone who knows me could let me know, otherwise I'll just randomly check here.

Cool

Might be up for this one! Not really too keen on going when it's stupid busy, as I guess it will be at Easter. May sounds like a better bet. Anyway, will wait for the dates to be released and make a decision.

They've announced the opening dates for the Touristenfarhrten and it's a corker - 10 full weekends - much better than last year!

Full weekends on:

March 27th
April 9th (F, S, S, M)
June 26th
August 7th
August 14th
September 18th
November 6th
November 13th
November 20th
November 2th

Price remains the same at £10 a lap (£8 a lap on a 12 lap ticket) and annual, unlimted-lap card is £480 (more than 60 laps (1.5 weekends!) is the break-even point).

So whats happening with this Easter combined Ring and Spa trip? Was anyone organising it???

Been outta the loop for a while.

I'm deffo up for Easter

James.

Type R, you should go and stand in the corner and have a stern(sp?) word with yourself

My mate Nick will be with us but I have no idea how you amend the list.

Oh, btw MRK, she is no longer token laydee, she is now fully qualified Trophy Blonde. I have to be nice on the grounds she bought a Spec C just before Christmas and it get's confiscated if I am bad

Harj, to be honest mate, she has taken it to work once, the only time she has driven it! I, however, have had some use out of it!

Oh, and as you know, I am hardly a good tutor

TVR G posted it twice for added WHOA IM A CRAZY cough, cough prson factor.

Nice idea Gary, apart from you'd prob be going down the Foxhole, just when the scared whitless priest says 'and now you may kiss the bride' and WHACK 140mph into the bottom of it, and your first visit of your married lives would be to casualty for major dental work, LOL
