That is the ring and they let cars + bikes out on track at the same time.

Looks fun Laughing

I'd be a little wary of bikes and cars, especially seeing how maney monkeys just went accross the grass on that clip!

And how is it classed as a road? Confused

From those numbers I can calculate you'll need at least 37 AA vans and 18 petrol tankers following Laughing

Lets see. Ring is 38 miles, TL will do about 70-80 to reserve. So every other lap there is 300 bikes filling up with about 13 litres of petrol. 3,900 per two laps, say thats per hour. Say riding for 6 hours, thast over 23,000 litres of petol. Thats over 1 entire petrol tankers worth. Laughing

Oh, and at 80p a litre thats near £19,000 Shocked .

Come along and do a Spa-Francorchamps AND Nordschlife (Northern loop) weekend later this year...awesome.

btw the Ring is only 20.8 kms long....but thats still bloody long way with a lot of corners and even more nutters who THINK their fast.
