my quite frankly wonderful wife has arranged for me to take my fabia vrs to the ring for my birthday! stopping at hotel an der nordshliefe on exmule corner! would anybody be there that weekend? time to pop my ring cherry!! by the way,yes im gonna have to do something really amazing for the wifes birthday, wonder if she would like to go to belgium? nice little place called spa!

I'll be there.. Not taking the fabia though, flying over then hiring a car.

Will try and say hello if i spot your car..

Im there that weekend too, keep an eye out for my Octavia (Black vRS Estate) which hopefully should still have my Evo 1RS track car behind it on a trailer!

Shout if you see me, especially if pax seat is empty!

Cheers chaps,ill be the one in the red fabia looking slightly worried,

To be honest this is the best attitude/way to be when approaching the Ring for your first drive. I was crapping myself and still five years later, 70+laps the andrenaline really starts to flow as soon as you enter the entry lane. Keeps you alert in my opinion! Maybe take a spin out with someone else first to get a feel/view for it?

Sounds like a good plan

Thinking of putting some better discs,pads and fluid on.also I have some good quality tyres to fit. Not going to do any tuning,it will be fast enough for now.hope to meet up with some chaps there to get some advice.

take it easy, watch you mirrors and if possible have a passenger as a spotter for up coming faster cars. On a busy track you will spend alot of time using your mirrors and pulling over for faster cars. Bikes are super mad!

But dont let it put you off its something you have to experience!

Cheers fo that. My cousin is coming with me,so he's going to keep an eye out for me.hoping to be able see from the hotel when its quieter,due to it been on exmuhle corner.

i might sound really stupid asking this but is there something happening there that weekend. and would there be someone i could maybe follow meet at dover or something whos going because my sense of direction is not the best lol

is that the best way from birmingham aswell? and roughly how far away is it.

Less miles other side

I'm over that way that weekend,will try and pop over I'm doing spa on Monday and Zolder Tuesday

From Brum, best off doing Dover to Dunkirk I think! Its 250 miles from Dunkirk, about 4 hours driving when the traffic is not bad.

is anyone going dover way that maybe i could follow to the ring from dont fancy getting lost on my own lol

Dover to Dunkirk is nice and cheap, Norfolkline do a good deal

norfolkline/dfds do dover to calais as of 17th feb

How many going on this trip. I live an hour away from the ring would be nice to meet some other Briskoda members and see some cars.

I'm there with a group of 6 and know of about 6 other friends going that weekend.

Already booked my table at the pistenklaus

ill be there this weekend aswell with 4 others

We are leaving Thursday morning the 24th for the 2pm ferry out of Dunkirk, your more than welcome to tag along with us....if the times/dates suit
