rado-steve 0 Posted March 30, 2005 So you hire a random car and then thrash the crap out of it roud the 'ring? Nice......... What did you hire???? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmn 0 Posted March 30, 2005 well kinda, but not thrash it, just give it a bit of stick, new set of tyres and she will be fine, i ended up with a bmw 320d, not too bad and quite quick, but i want to bring my corrado over as you need serious brakes and suspension there, i would nearly say brakes and suspension over power Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted March 31, 2005 Two good sites with plenty of info. for anyone planning a trip to the 'ring: http://www.nurburgring.org.uk/ http://www.roadracers.co.uk/nring.htm Admittedly, the roadracers site is motorcycle biased, but it's still relevant.

james_88 0 Posted April 2, 2006 Me and my mate were at the ring last Sunday in our two corrados, it was amazing! Totally awesome! I agree with what you say about brakes over power, you don't appreciate the gradient of the track until you've actually driven round it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AVIS in Germany will hire you a spanking new 997 Carrera for £700 for a weekend btw now that would be tempting! i just hired an slk(read as girly car) but they do handle very well and have good brakes its still a real petrol head heaven, the museum in the hotel with the old racers and bmw's is great. lots of big off's mind, one poor english guy made a bit of a big mistake and tried to run, but he will be charged with leaving the scene of an accident for that. but it is class to see some seriously tuned vw's lots of tuned r32's (mk4 and mk5 lots of mk5 gti's golf's and polo's Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
