The Ring

Just got back from the Ring and oh my god. Well I have come back with an even better car then i went out in. The car just loved the ring and handled like a dream and alot better then i ever thought and it's the driver that's the limit. "training Day i think is next"

New respect!!

I was at the ring this weekend, only saw a German S2000 and a Dutch S2000 there....

It is great and you do quickly realise that it is your limits that need to be raised not the cars! The car can go so much quicker than I can, and I am well pleased with the few mods that I have done to improve the handling!

The next time I go to the ring I should have some fresh Goodyear F1 rubber and some 17" wheels!

search flickr and there's a few others, some linked off Ben Lovejoy's site.

Although I've just noticed the ring bunny hasn't been there in a while.

Seems to be the best, but you need to register and speak/read German .. I muddled through looking for dates.

What did you guys do about insurance? My insurer specifically excludes the Ring, but I am still hoping to go at the end of July and I dont really want to pay through the nose for 1 day??

Lots of people wing it. Hope you don't have an accident, or pay for it yourself if you do. Or hope that they can argue that the accident was on a road in the Eiffel mountains

Your insurance wouldn't cover you getting off the ring anyway. But ADAC membership would.
