theduisbergkid Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Following the success of 2012's "Car Club 18-30" trip, we're now planning the 2013 trip, do you fancy it ? For the uninitiated, it's a treasurehunt and trackday for cool cars either designed or in production 18-30 years ago, geddit ? We've opened a wobby webpage where you can register your interest, it's a minor faff to register but it's way easier than everyone sending a billion emails or filling TsN with another s2b2 thread, so click here for more info and to register your interest. For those who missed the last one, it's online here > Car Club 18-30, a classic s2b2 adventure. | s2b2 Cheers, Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tipex Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Both links work fine for me, I seem to still be registered from the halcyon days when S2B2 had it's own extremely busy forum anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theduisbergkid Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Some interesting stuff lining up for this - M1 and S2 for starters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theduisbergkid Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 DeLorean ! Wow ! I think the cat is out of the bag regarding the destination, it's the 'ring, or more specifically, the GP circuit as opposed to the Nordschleife. More runoff, faster, much less crowded and (IMO) more FUN. Plus, being a proper track as opposed to 'public toll road' there's no worry about dealing with armco stazi and the rozzers if anything goes belly up. The reason the dates haven't been published yet is because the 'ring people haven't published dates but we're being told the dates will be out in the next c.3 weeks Oh, and there is something VERY special lined up on the treasure hunt part.

Tipex Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 If it involves Sabine, or her vastly more attractive sister, and a steak on a stone, I'm in! Wonder if Gressy's T5 is still in the scrapyard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldavo69 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 It'd be a shame not to do a cheeky lap of the t'other ring though if the dates line up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mook Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 , it's the 'ring, or more specifically, the GP circuit as opposed to the Nordschleife. OK, that changes things - a proper track. I'll need to sort a proper car in that case. Nice though it was to take an Ur-Quattro last time, it had the handling of a sofa and Christmas pudding brakes. You realise this means I may have to keep the track toy til after August now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theduisbergkid Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'm not nicking anything from the Porsche museum for you! Nope, it's a bit more exciting than a museum Mook, you can book 20 minute sessions on the GP circuit so there's really no need for any hardcore track weaponry (especially when you see what others are bringing), unless you just want an excuse to take the Gti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Ok, so it's not exclusive track time? I'll consult myself on how many Gs I fancy pulling :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizzbitt Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Here's a crappy vid of our first lap round the F1 sections which was opened up without us being notified on the second day we were there hence the surprise of the driver. Gives you a good idea of the track anyhow. Apologies for the swearing and thick Geordie accent! The track itself is amazing and a couple of the bends are really high speed and the grip is a lot more than what you would expect. The video camera car is a Porsche GT3 and im in the blue MR2 in front that he is following. As said it was our first outing on the F1 section and i think it was the 4th lap of the northern loop itself. Word of warning though, as soon as it started to spit a bit the track became very greasy quite quickly in sections. I ended up facing the other way with the lightest of lift off oversteer round an off camber left bend and i wasnt even on boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
