@ steve, which track day vendor did you use for the trip.
Id be keen to know how much the overall cost for a weekend like this would be. Im fortunate that before i only lived 90 mile away from the ring, so never had to put up all the travel an accommodation costs that you guys do just to get there in the first place.
I want to do a spa/nurburgring/hockenheim trip next year before i go away again.
