No insurance unless you can afford to pay lots and lots. You have third party insurance if you are in a accident but it is likely that your insurance will be taking you to court for it back.  :happy2:

I havent got a clue but i would guess at a few grand for the day plus a massive excess. Do a google search for companies that will ensure their and ask for a quote.  :happy2:

I managed a 8:38 on my 4th lap which I don't think is too shabby, I'm going to do more mods (Roll bars, bushes, tyres etc) and go back to hopefully get faster, with handling mods I think an 8:20 ish is easily possible!

Very nice! Was this your forth ever lap on the Nurburgring or you forth lap in the Golf?
If it was the forth ever lap, the time is spectacular!

That was my 4th lap driving around. However I have been 4/5 times and probably done around 20 passenger laps aswell as loads and loads of time on Forza 4. So I know the track a little bit, at least what bend is coming up etc..

Went over with our T5, Scirocco and Q5 a few weeks ago. Didn't time BtoG as we were doing full laps on a DN day. I only did a few laps as we had better drivers than me going out to see what the van could do but in the Scirocco did a full lap - 8.39 and Q5 full lap - 9.12 Loads more in both the cars and me, I'm a bit rusty! My old Ibiza did an 8.03 best BtoG when I had that.

I just got back from the Nurburging trip and I managed to improve my best time. Now I have a BTG of 8:56 in my 160bhp 1300kg Golf  :happy2:



There still is a lot of room from improvement so I hope to beat this time on my next visit.

Thank you!
Well, costs may differ because I live in Romania and it is a 1000 mile trip to get to Nurburgring... I have not done the math, but I would say 25 laps of Touristenfarhten + gas + accomodation + trip, would be around 1500 EURO (give or take).
But this trip is well worth it. Even if you may spend this money on mods, I think Nurburgring is a must for all auto enthusiasts so it really is money well spent...
