The BMW driver training course is magnificent I did the course in 2001 when there was unfortunately a fatality by one of the entrants in a 3 series convertible this place needs lots of respect but who am I to mention the obvious.

Although this years course is now run the best way to gain cover is to pay for insurance to a certain limit i.e. one of the companies who will pay out to an agreed ceiling for a set premium.

As most posts have mentioned UK drivers do not bother myself included, and just like motor racing one gambles on the hope that the worst does not happen and if it does the bill could be unpleasant.

Still this creates the right sort of attitude to be sensible after all there are no championships to be won or a name to be made by overdriving this fabulous circuit.

The best advice's I have received on the Nordschleiffe is 'go in no faster than you can come out' and 'do not blindly follow another'!
