If there's a meeting at the NS, I'll try to make it!

For the moment I'm driving the shitty Ford Fiesta 1.25 of my girlfriend... I'll see if my boss will lend me another car for a day
A 997 turbo or a GT3 (RS) would be nice (there are plenty outside on the parking lot) but I'll settle for a Golf GTi

It must be plane, with a car it would take too long to drive 1800km. Ryanair is cheap, but it's timetable is shitty. They fly during the afternoon, so it kinda ruins the day. It would be nice to make a roadtrip though.
Depending on the time of arrival or departure, I can pick you up or drop you off at Düsseldorf or Cologne/Bonn, which aren't too far off my route to the Ring.

Well you can take the ferry from Hanko o Rostock and then drive down...... (not the cheapest option though).

Well, i would like veeery much to be there, but it depends on the timing.

My gf would also love to go, so I'd have plan all those things for us to take vacations at the same time, and do a eurotrip!



Maybe I could join Dani in Spain and go together..

That's the plan. But all depends on the date. If
- 9th june - visiting at the singen luxory cardealership + merc museum
- 10th june Visiting the 24hours around the nordschleife.
is still the plan, than I'll probably only be there on the 10th, since I have a weddingparty to attend on the 8th.

I don't like that ferry, it's expensive and it takes about the same time than driving through Sweden. And money is important factor to me.

My wife would most likely come also, if she had the possibility. Are girls allowed?
I agree that it's a bit boring, but I found it more relaxing then driving the whole way to / from Finland last summer. On the way back we were directed to drive the car to the truck deck. So nice... a small Exige and those big trucks.
