All ready to rock and roll. Took her to york on an airfield to learn a little about pushing her into and around bends. the wife came along as well and she did really well so it looks like i will be bringing the car home from the ring in one piece. If anyone else has been here it is the driver training course and the instructers were very helpfull. hit 110 on the short straight before the chicane very happy car was spot on no problems at all.
see you all soon

I'm very excited about this trip , being a Ring virgin !

I will definitely be aiming to maintain my 100% other ring virginity record , although sharing a room with Faz is an obvious risk !

It will be great to hook up with a load of the guys again and I look forward to seeing you there !

Happy 'Belated' Birthday guys!!

Does anyone have any ideas about where we can get some breakfast when we hit French soil? I have been looking for somewhere close that has a large enough car park and sells breakfast but am not having much luck?

Any ideas?

Jon

PS. Andy, good work with the driving training course, great idea.

Jon, surely a service area on the motorway will be our best bet?

and with my Audi's small petrol tank, I fear regular stops my be required...

Service areas would be the best bet, but try finding one that serves bacon and eggs!! I can't even find a Macdonalds for a Sausage and Oeuf Mcmuffin!!

How far you going to get per tank at the speeds we are used to?
