Overtake on the LEFT only, use your indicators.

Pull to the RIGHT and indicate RIGHT to let others pass. If they are on your arse, let them past - they are faster. Nobody likes to get a lap ruined by a very slightly slower car which makes life difficult.

If you crash, leave the car and wait in a safe place, do your best to warn others of the danger ahead. It would be a good idea to bring a yellow flag or safety vest if you have one.

If you see a crash, pull up a good distance further away where it is SAFE, do what you can to help - first call the number above stating the km number nearest or corner name if known. Always think of safety first - warn others of the oncoming danger before attending to casualties.

You are not supposed to overtake during a yellow flag, and any safety vehicles with flashing lights should not be overtaken - I see many people ignoring these rules but I stick to them myself. If you see people blatantly ignoring rules and generally driving in a dangerous way, then feel free to report it.

Leave heavy speakers or anything else in the car not firmly secured at home or in the hotel.

Check the car condition over before every lap.

Don't let others or the myth get to you - drive how you feel safe, drive smoothly.

Be very careful at Adenauer Forst (can't stress that enough).

See you all there!
