NURBURGRING 24hrs 2012................................................

For those of you still interested to go a few of my friends and I are going this way (insert below).

I can promise you'll be lucky to get a decently priced hotel at this late a stage and camping is rubbish, especially considering the neighbours in the fields....

If your interested in doing the Ring this way let me know and we'll see if we can book up the same apartment.

**Trackmasters ADAC Nurburgring 24hrs trip 2012

Hello TM Friends

We hope you have been following the exciting updates and changes to the Track-Masters organisation over the past few months.

If not then please visit our Facebook www.facebook/track-masters.co.uk page or the Website www.track-masters.co.uk and all will be explained.

Now that Christmas is over and a new year is upon us thoughts turn to new adventures for 2012.

Following the great success of the Trackmasters 2010 trip to watch the 24hr race, we have decided that in 2012 we will return. Those of you who came with us previously will no doubt remember the fun and games we all had. Who can forget the thrill of fully race prepared cars screaming past on full chat barely inches from you on one of the most torturous race tracks in the world, or the treks through the woods at night listening to the engines howling past and watching the cars flood lights race past and illuminate the treetops.

If you didn’t join us then we can only hint at the excitement and buzz you will feel walking amongst the pitlane and starting grid as close to 200 racing machines prepare for and epic battle.

Details

Accommodation – 4 nights at the Hotel an der Nordschleife Apartments, Adenau.

We have secured the same apartment we got in 2010, which provides great views from the balcony overlooking Adenau Bridge as you chill with a BBQ’d sausage and beer.

Or just a stone’s throw from the forest walks which will quickly get you to the Foxhole or the fast uphill section of Kesselchen towards the Karussell.

Opposite the apartment is the main bus stop to catch the free bus to the main Ring complex and wander amongst the pitlane’s and grandstands.

The apartment has 3 bedrooms with single beds and sleeps 12 in total. There is a bathroom, WC and lounge area leading onto the Balcony.

Dates

Thursday 17th May – Monday 21st May 2012

Details

We plan to have Sat night at the Pistenklause for the traditional steak on stones. This will require an early booking so the sooner we can confirm your place the better.

We also plan to make a trip to Schumacher’s karting track, most likely to be on the Friday. Details of this will follow depending on the level of interest.
