No-ones catching the 6pm ferry as far as i know, we'll all be in the Pistenklause by then on the
Tickets to get into the WSR Nurburgring are free & I've got a HEAP so i'll sort you out!
As for Exhibiting some people can't make it in so maybe we can come to some agreement??
That would be great. Looking forward to meeting everyone there!
See you all bright an early
The way things are going we wil have to risk taking the SLaguna.
Still not heard from the garage to say if the volvo is ok or not and we were supposed to be leaving an hour ago.
Still waiting for my mate to arrive, worrying thing is he is bring over the car we were supposed to be going in, but the turbo is kicking in on the engine (td) and dash lights up with warning lights for everything, the other day the power steering just gave up on him whilst driving, I just hope he can make it along.
Look out guys...
Hope you can make it your preferred car's.
Time for a quick 2 hour kip before a midnight departure...Cant blooomin' wait! See you all in the morning! As for Jaffa and Stu etc..They'll be full steam ahead as we type this! Suits you sailor!

Got back at midnight thanks to a 2 hour delay due to Norfolkline tossers not letting us on our booked boat.
Anyway, AWESOME weekend, amazing food (Steak on a stone FTW!) and great company also incorporating two laps of the ring in the Tank aka Maria's Volvo.
Got a load of pics and vids on photobucket.

Well that's us just in the door now, driven since 7pm last night immediately after cramming in 2 laps, had to wait half an hour for the track tyres to cool down before putting them in the car! knackered! but smiling!!!! Thankfully norfolkline let us on 3 hrs early at 11pm otherwise we would still be driving! Already making plans for next year, weekend at Spa followed by a week or so camping at the 'ring to get a few laps in every night (only saw about a dozen cars on my last laps ) prob around the scottish school summer hols so mrs miller can make it too! the more the merrier
Awesome!
Hotel, 'ring, food/beer/weed, weather, company, wsr, car, ferry, driving........all just simply awesome. One of those weekends where everything went smooth and dropped into place perfectly, an example of which was most of us turning up in the same car park on Sunday eve for an impromptue photo op'-
