Nurburgring Nordschleife 01 June 2008 - Who's gonna be there?

I plan on taking my 135i to the Nurburgring tomorrow. Anybody else plan on going? The Nordschlief is open from 1030 until 1900 but the Grand Prix circuit has motorcycle racing going on all day.

Even if you're car isn't broken in, you can always ride along with me, or if you have a will of steel, just drive your car lazy like.

I got the four lap ticket. Hope to have a video up on Youtube shortly. I arrived around 11am and it was already really crowded. During my first lap there were two wrecks, a Porsche GT2 and a Honda S2000, major front end and side damage on both, on different sections of the track and on my third lap there was another Porsche, didn't catch which model which spun into the grass. In fact, between every lap was punctuated by a delay of about 40 minutes while the crews cleared the track of a wreck.

Driving the Nordschleif is a ham-fisted affair for me at best. I'm not a particularly good driver and somebody really good could beat me in a 128i.

Yea, its a 200 mile trip for me as well. Right at the end of the day two more Alpine White 135i's showed up but when I first got there, mine was the only 135i. Got quite a bit of attention.

Two bars over 250, not too hot. It was below 250 within 2 minutes of stopping.
