Retro car stuff around Nurburg

[adamwatson]

I'm off to the 'ring tomorrow and the weather is forcast to be wibblepoo. Can anyone recommend things around there to do if its too wet to do the track.

Any breakers around there for bargin bits for my BMW?

Cheers

lots of stuff to do ,you have the karting ,then the museum, and have a look round the industrial parks at the tuner places manthey racing is always good for a look if you like your Porsche stuff ,then the shell garage with the model shop,there is a scrap yard there but its off the beaten track

karts are electric, but they go well and its a good track ,sometimes have to book as it gets busy ,and the museum we spent a good couple of hours in

Go to the Pistenklausse in Nurburg (it's owned by Sabine Schmidt's family IIRC). Budget 20 odd euros for a steak and get it served on a hot stone. Just trust me on this one. Honestly - it's the main reason I had to go back to the 'ring.

If it rains, be sure to still do the Touristenfahrten, it's even better in the rain because there are no bikers to knock off.

Enjoy.

also do the ring taxi ,ive been out the in the m3, and the new m5, both in the rain both awesome laps with drivers that have done over 10,000 laps ,mainly booked up but you can get in on the off chance ,its not cheap but worth it ,if you get 3 in the car its about 90 euros each for a lap

a lack of track based action is normally replaced by heavy consumption of wheat beer, steak on a stone at the pistenclause and italian food at pinoccios in adenau

I think the ring taxi is out of my price range. Thanks for the suggestions, apparently we're booked in for a steak on a stone. Unfortunately I'm just a passenger hope to drive it next year if funds are better

Passengering in a heavy modded RX7 so should be a good laugh and will post pics up here
