Title: Nurburgring end of March 2013
Post by: GTI_Daz on November 02, 2012, 09:06:05 pm
Hi Folks,

Got a trip to Germany/ Belgium penned in for the last weekend in March next year. Anybody been around then? Cant check yet whether the track will be open or not. Hoping to stop at Spa on the way from Germany to Belgium too.

Could be a bit snowy around then chief, but could also be glorious as we went the first week in April one year and it was cracking the flags...
Let me know if you want the details for Wolfgangs place and I can recommend a good place to stop in Spa too  :happy2:
Although you could always take Appers back and kip in the car again lol  :grin:

Haha yeah, ive never found my hood after covering my face with it that morning. Had a look for wolfgangs place but it kept saying it was unavailable. Managed to find this one and got it booked.

We're only actually there for a night and 2 days then we are going to spa. Spending few hours there and then travelling on to Brussels to get bladdered for 2 nights.

Wolfgang may not open up that early in the season thinking about it?
Place you've booked looks nice though and not too far out  :happy2:
Hopefully you'll manage to grab a TF session on the GP track at the Ring and at Spa too!  :happy2:

Off the subject, but do you guys know whether all the autobahns in Germany have no speed restriction?  Just asking as it sounds like you've been to the ring a few times?  :happy2:
