I don't even live close to Germany but we could try to arrange a meeting halfway? I live in Steenbergen (nb) Netherlands.

Oh Man, Lausitz Ring is so close to you. Iwould have to get a rental if I was in Berlin to run that track just to say I was on it.

Hey Marc , Stay safe man.

Lausitz Ring -Berlin very fast and hardon the brakes, No real times to speak of for there.

Hockenheim Ring- Hockenheim- Very fast extremely hard on brakes, best time there is 2mins 05 secs. Tragically I crashed there on a warmup lap

Nordschleife(Nurburg Ring)- Nurburg- A nice loooooong race track just like Lancer said. Lost of turns , offcambers, blind brows and elevation changes. It will get your heart pumping. Warning though this track is very unforgiving for mistakes= no runout room. My best time is 8min 30 on this track.

Other than that there open during spring ,summer ,fall but u must check there respective webpages to ensure when there open to the public.

good to hear. I'll be back on the track myself in April. Hopefully I'll make it to Hockenheim more this summer, but Thursday nights are not looking good so far.

I almost went to watch that day. If it wasn't for a killer hangover, I would have seen it live.

Roy and Lancer,
thanks for the info you posted. Have been working feveriously on my c4.
I have Kumho MX's on it now and new rims, and replaced the brakes. I gotta fix a few minor things, but will be ready soon. Will any of you be attending the meet in Italy?

not headed to Italy. I'm still waiting on some misc things myself. New brakes are in the mail, tires and wheels are here, but need to be mounted, need an allignment, new plugs, new wires, and I'll be ready to go. I'm hoping to hit Nurburgring either the 2nd or 3rd weekend in April, and Hockenheim whenever I can.
