Calling this off now lads, don't want to risk the snow :(

Are you serious? At least come along for the trip if you dont risk it round the track!

Stav

Ditto

The mountains have their own weather system and you can't take what a 'normal' weather report says. As the pic shows report says snow but there is no snow. Even if we just get one or two days on the 'ring its worth it :D

We drove over a couple of years back in the worst snow ever and lived to tell the tale :winky:

R888's are on the IS350 OEM alloys..............

Not sure if its wise to drive over on them if its snowy !

good choice of tyre there dave.i tried to get some for my M3,but couldnt get em delivered in time for thursday.I looked into cups also-but they are even worst then R888s in the wet and working out at £1k fitted.

I think cologne will be fine weather wise-so if we get there and find out its snowing at the ring we dont have to venture down.Its supposedly snowing in adenau now,according to the weather report.its actually sunny there at the mo.come on guys lets not cancel now,all my mates at home will beat me for making them change the stag do dates.

i wouldnt worry about the snow, it will only stick on the hills, the roads will be fine, and Koln will be fine aswell

it'll still be slippy...

and with the numbers expected to go - I imagine it'll be a messy weekend with lots of closures..

i dont think its going to be a problem at all.It chucked it down last year and we still went on with the track wet and slippy in places.ive seen people driving the ring in heavy rain and its not that bad.

Fine by me,

So Me, Chris Aztec, Gord, Raj, Maneesh, and LEE! meeting at Norton Canes at 7am?

Stav

yeah thats fine by me.Maneesh is meeting us at Maidstone so he has to make sure he is in the Maidstone area by 12 latest then,so we have enough time to either wait for him at the services or collect him en route.ill text him now.

well bugger the weatherman if you pardon the expression.

I'm going, hopefully with Mini-Me if not alone....

If the weather is really poor, I will just stand and watch the Porsches and BMW's crash (not Raj or my mate Milo).

Bring on the road trip !!!
