So a guy was talking to me yesterday about my car, he was one of those "can talk a good game" type charachters, but my favourite bit was when he was telling me how he took a porshe 911 around the Nuremburg ring :lol: and apparently got it upto 190mph :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
 
Yeah I drove that course in my speed boat last winter.... great course, need a good rudder though :tumbleweed:

I've got a couple of window stickers that might be just right for this chap - they read "Neverbeen" over an outline of the track !

Did he say it was a bit of a trial.......................... :?

:lol:

Clicked through a couple of links and found this, regarding 'optional extras' costs at the ring :

Optional extras available at additional cost include armco repairs, safety car attendance, vehicle recovery, track closure, hospital stays and helicopter rides. I recommend avoiding these. If you can't, then the following price-list may help:

Base fee for attendance of armco truck: €150
Removing damaged armco: €10/metre (x2 or x3 or x4 for multiple-height sections)
Replacement armco: €31/metre (x2 or x3 for double/triple height)
Removing damaged armco posts: €5.10 each
Replacing armco post: €39 each
Safety car attendance: €82 per 30 mins (car + 2 people)
Circuit closure: €1,350 per hour
Recovery truck: €190 (inc VAT)
Hospital stay & air ambulance: Let's just say, do NOT go there without travel insurance! (Though a European Health Card - which replaced the E111 - may cover the hospital bit.)
Everything except the recovery truck is then subject to 19% VAT.

The record armco bill I'm aware of is €15,000. That was a car that managed to flatten a very impressive length of armco between the Quiddlebacher Hohe bridge and the crest on the approach to Flugplatz. But even a minor bump can turn into a surprisingly expensive day out.

Wonder if your man in his porker incurred any of these... Though I don't see any charges for being a c0ck :?

Just as well otherwise it would have cost the british tv licence payer a fortune for allowing Jeremy Clarkson on there.
