    Got back safely on Wednesday afternoon from the IMM in Germany
    Myself and another 6 classic minis from the clan spent a week away at this
    miles covered 1400 give or take a few

    Taken on Monday night at the Nurburg Ring
    a wee mini countryman hammering it round the ring with
    scotland flags on the back









    And I even overtook a Merc ML

    Will post a link to my photos when I have uploaded them

    Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo want to go back to the ring but in the GP
    scarey at the start but it is so cool to drive knowing the police are not round the corner
    with a speed gun or the like

    How about a NEWMINISCOTLAND Ring Trip

    A NMS trip to the 'Ring' has been discussed, but nobody 'as yet' has taken on the challenge of organising such an epic trip.

    Maybe you could share some of your 'organisational' skills with us NMS'rs

    There's a couple of people on NM who regularily take their cars to the ring, mind you I'm not sure if one of them is still paying off the damage they did to the Armco.

    This would be an epic run like other's have suggested but would be a huge job to oraganise.

    Awesome seeing that countryman burning up the ring...

    As old man Crombers () has already said, this topic of an EPIC NMS run to the Nurburgring has been discussed in here before, but has never gone further than the thread itself. I am pretty DAMN sure there are a lot of people in here who would be up for that trip, I know I definately would be (once I get another decent car to do it in!!)
    Going around 'The Ring' is like one of those MUST DO things...

    The logistics of planning such a HUGE trip is what I think would be the down fall of this sort of trip but I could be wrong.

    We're going to the ring for my mate's stag do next year, the idea is to buy a load of bangers and pretty much kill them!!
