Either way, you need to check when the Nurburgring is offically open.
Sound interesting?

Easter is a no-go for me due to family commitments that time of year.
But if you were to arrange a trip, say for May or June I think I could be tempted in the Skyline![]()

No worries.They're just laps I've got with a stealth mounted camera either in the centre console on the Mk2 Turbo, or down in the front radiator

They give you a good idea of the layout of the track, but it doesn't give you a good view of the bumps or up/down altitude changes.

Ben, I know Mark is trying to get those together that want to do Le Mans though i think we would need to know very soon to get campsite bookings in the circuit.![]()
A trip to Le Mans and taking in the Ring as well would be tops I think.

I have IM'd Mark to see what he thinks

Also we will be meeting up with the German Toyota's Club and making a big International Meet out of it.
I could also be interseted going later in the year.![]()
I've already"provisional" put my name on the MR2OC list.
I'll keep my eyes peeled to this thread; see what develops out of it.

Nope, these are my own- but Roger and I were on the same trips over there.
Ask him about his brakes next time you speak to him
Roger has done more laps than me around the circuit, and can most politely be decribed as'king quick around the circuit in a MR2 turbo
- he's lapping in under 9 minutes
-
under 10 minutes is certainly very respectably quick.
