I was amazed at how much it COULD cost for a ton of laps, With the amount of laps you done, you were not far off from saving money by getting a season pass! :P

Was mainly chilling (quite literally saturday! - Freezing cold!) at Eschbach, Brunnchen and Pflanzgarten. I gave a little cheer every time I saw a Z4 go past, If you went past Saturday at any point, you would of got a cheer. :lol:

Sounds like someone needs to sort out a Z4 roadtrip to nurburg for next year *nudge* :poke:

Wasn’t on track on Saturday as we arrived late Saturday evening, and left the following Saturday morning.

Every year I consider a Jahreskarte, but I ever think I’ll do enough laps make it worthwhile. One of my mates however has done 500 laps this year, so has spent multiples more on fuel, tyres & break pads than on laps. He only comes off to refuel or replace pads (about 3 sets of the cheapest pads he can find for a Seat Leon Cupra).

500 laps?! That's impressive! I didn't even think to consider the cost of tires/brakes/fuel as well! :o
