To drive the Ring, it costs 60 Euro, that's about $75 for 5 laps. There is a ATM machine like thing there. Remember one lap is 14 miles with about 180 corners. You will be out there with bikes, race cars, other like you and Mom's Toyota station wagon. All it takes to get on the track is 60 Euros, no tech, no nothing. I drove it last year in a 997S when I went on that Autobahn Adventures Tour to Germany. It was a blast, just toooo cool.
On my last lap, 2 bikes went down and 1 BMW M3 went into the guard rail. That's when I decided I'd had enough. I also had a GT3 try to pass me in a chicane. I didn't think that was too cool at all. Being the new guy, I kept a close watch on my rear view mirrors and would pull over and slow down to let everyone pass me. If you go, watch your line, speed and expecially the others, just cause they're out there doesn't mean they can drive, just that they had 60 Euro's. Good Luck, Don Attached image(s) |
