Please all remember not to crash.
It sounds silly, but the cost of crashing is horrendous.
For every piece of barrier you touch, that is £20 each.
Recovery from the track is dear, and they take no shit. Card details and a big fine. If you crash bad enough to shut the track, you get charged aswell, I think.
For those who have not been before, you must check out the website posted by Stu, the ben Lovejoy one.
It gives you a massive reality check.
For a 'newbie' on the track 150bhp is plenty of power. You might laugh, but I guarentee, you will get 'doored' by a Golf mk2 16v!!!!
The Nurburgring needs respect, all the GT4 playing in the world will not prepare you for the awesome track.
Motorbikes will always get in you way on the bendy bits (most of the track), and it is not a race. You should overtake with care and always on one side. When you see a faster car coming you should attempt to get out of the way.
Although it is a track, it is a public road aswell, and Laws still apply. You can overtake the rossers who patrol the ring regularly.
Have fun
