anyone interested or tempted by this?

sounds good - not sure how many people have signed up - is it a poor-mans cannonball run?

Sounds good but that's quite a bit of money... As for the date, all I 've seen on their website is 'second quarter 2002'.
Still at work ... and plenty more to do...

It's about £8 per lap. It depends on how many tickets you buy at a time, you can buy books of 5 or 10 (or is it 12?). Don't forget it's over 12 miles long (and way harder than anything in the UK) so you don't need a huge number of tickets. Go careful in the wet though, the track can be dry in the pits but wet farther round plus there is zero run off with triple armco so any spin offs are major incidents .. I know this!!! One bit of advice, take a mobile phone and note the number for the recovery truck out with you, there are no marshals and if the worst happens it's a long walk!

its probably the toughest in the world, and legendary. All the big companies use it for testing. To hold the lap record brings a hell of a lot of kudos.

I did a similar thing year before last on my two wheeler, Nurburgring was excellent but the real creamer was Spa Francorchamps absolutely out of this world nothin I ever did before or have done since on something engine driven has even come close. If you can afford it, do it.

and by the way, I dont think anyone on here will be getting any lap records. If by any chance you do give Frank Williams a call I'm sure he'll give you a drive
