Nurburgring Desmo due style

Is this including the GP loop?? Or just the nordshleife?? I would have thought a race of some sort would require a lot of red tape and legalities to be surmounted, Endurance in a regularity type format maybe as opposed to head to head? A lot of red mist could descend in a full on type of event with very broad knowledge/skill levels. What about the possibility of a wet event MMmmmm Risky. Loads of respect for you to contemplate this undertaking. Still you know the place better than most of us. Just out of interest do you know when the last Motorcycle race was held there?

Don't see much point in a race, can see a million negatives for it and very few positives.

I'm with Weeksy on that mate ... but as a "bike only trackday" mainly filled with people we know you could be on to a right winner, I think the "race" bit will scare more people off than it attracts in my opinion ...

Mate, this is one trip i'm deffo in for

[quote=madmav]Loz, I'll go with the flow on this... The fact is I thought it might turn out a bit like a track day split into 4 sessions 25bikes on track at any one time would give you plenty of room and may even help the slower riders enjoy it!

I think this would be a better way! (trackday)

So who's up 4 a Mega mega meet at the ring?

Mav, even if you put 100 bikes on the nordschleife in one go , with an open pit lane the place would be fairly empty most of the day. it is a tiring track to ride constantly all day. So probably only find 50 bikes on the track at once.
Just my thoughts mind.

I would agree most first timers will find it very exhausting.

I have got the ok from my other half so in the words of Marvin Gay LETS GET IT ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
