Ok guys, I'm going to be updating this over the next couple of days. Please keep an eye on this thread.
To start with, I need all those as CONFIRMED attendees to POST BELOW with FIRM numbers. JUST THOSE GOING PLEASE. This thread needs to be kept clean. so no rubbish else it will be deleted.
DATE now confirmed: Weds 12th to Sun 16th APRIL
Plan of action will be ferry over on Day 1 (Dover to Calais as it's cheap), then drive to Koln. Stay at the Ibis near TTE and have a tour of their entire famous facilities on Day 2 followed by a night out. Day 3 will be a drive to the Nurburgring for the entire day, doing a few laps if you want, and meeting the TOC crowd before returning to Koln in the evening. Day 4 at the Nurburgring again or drive home. It's not overly expensive, and ask any of those who have been over with me and Mat in the last 3 years, it's a fantatstic trip!
COSTS:
- Petrol (Around 3/4 tanks)
- Ferry Dover to Calais (approximately £70 for 1 car and up to 4 passengers return)
- 4 nights at the Ibis in Koln (50 to 60 Euros per night)
- Track costs are 56 Euros for 4 laps and 16 Euros for 1 lap
- Spending money
Remember, this is a HUGE opportunity to visit the fantastic TTE plant, meet some of the guys, see some VERY special cars and have a go round the legendary Nurburgring!
And the reason we are going on a Wednesday is so that we can go round TTE on Thursday (so they will actually be there!). Friday will be speant at the Nurburgring, and Sunday home ready for work on Monday morning... :D
