Wolfsberg Nerburg trip!
Don't worry Al I now know exactly how you feel!
clearly I was insane to think she'd be happy to go (or let me go, although don't fancy the trip driving alone!)
but no….. DENIED!
maybe if there's a track meet in the UK
Still going to work on it though! persistance is the key :wink:

Would be well up for a Mk1 only track day - that would be awesome…
It would be less frightening for us "Track Virgins" if we all know that the other drivers aren't going to risk pranging their pride and joy by trying to undercut you on a hairpin!
Somewhere fairly central like Castle Combe… What do you think. Seperate thread maybe?

That's what the misses suggested for me to do as an alternative! not far and dead cheap
Deffo a seperate thread and maybe it could be sheduled in a month or so before The Ring so anybody worried about driving on a track could familiarize themselves!
I noticed on they're web site there's a few club days! maybe it'd be something this club could do? Annual meet and track day meet every 3 or 6 months :dontknow:

DOH - I soooooo knew I shouldn't have read this thread! I want to come now, but I won't be allowed :cry: Impossible to bank that many brownie points full stop, let alone in time for next year!
Al you could use the "If you really loved me you would let me go"
or if you're playing by the rules try this……..

Not that many lately mate! One of the joys of being young free and single.
Nobody loves me :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: Having a MK1 was a good substitute.
Walt has beared comparisons between his cab and a new item of clothing. He says he can put it on and go out feeling great. (He thinks it will help him pull too! )
I'm really hurting now mines gone(and I hate not having a MK1 ).
When I get Ratty2 she's going to feel like wearing a Boss, Cerrutti or Zegna tailored suit…….rude 8)

I know - ops:
Pembrey is not so well know for track days though. The "open days" as they call it are apparently used to test race cars before race days so I wouldn't really want to be on the track with them…
Pembrey doesn't seem to organised either which is a bit worrying.
I have been round the circuit as a passenger in a race preped Civic. My god it was quick! and the kink in the back straight seems awful sharp at over 100MPH!!!
