Default Trip to the Nurburgring...

Just back from a 5 day trip to the Nurburgring... This trip was inspired by Mr Larry Cable. Unfortunately he could not attend, so I could not buy the man who turned me onto Mexico Blue or visiting the Nurburgring a drink. One day maybe...

Going to keep it brief, I don't want to bore you with a travel log and pics of lingerie and chocolates in Bruges or some of the stunning vistas and drives of the Alps on the German/Swiss border..

We stayed at the Lindner Motorsport Hotel over looking the modern day GP track https://www.lindner.de/en/nuerburgri...l/welcome.html

My 1st view of the track in over 20 years.. ..pflanzgarten


The carpark opposite pflanzgarten


Brunchen


An almost empty carpark at our hotel


In the Hotel Lindner Motorsport


Eh ?


9 Laps for 220 Euros, You do not have to show a license, ID. Just pay your money and go..


Show your pass and go...schnell..schnell..schnell..


Schwedenkreuz


Wehrseifen


Karrusell in


Karrusell out


Brunchen to Fplanzgarten


The Newer Bit..


As recommended by Larry Cable... Pisten Klausehttp://www.am-tiergarten.de/en/resta...g_pistenklause
steak on a stone... before..


After....


We hit 175 mph on the Autobahn before stopping here for fuel.


We will be going again in about 6 weeks if anyone wants to meet up....Thank you Larry Cable...

We earned our sticker..

The van may have passed us on our 1st lap... But by the end we were lapping around 8.45 pretty easily...

I love steak on a rock!

Looks awesome, I don't think anyone will complain if you bore us with the lingerie and chocolates pics.

Great photos have to say "boring" and "lingerie" don't belong in the same sentence...ever!
