Here's the 2009 TF price list:

About 10% up from last year... :smt012

[SMD]

Looks like our trip will be ££££! :-D

[RichW]

Yup, and 10% from the year before that, and 10% from the year before that .... always the same. I'm just glad i got there a few years before Clarkson and the droves of morons who want to do a 10 minute lap after him :banghead:

[Mlife]

Holy Sh*t

how many laps do you guys normally do in a weekend?

[DazBlackCSL]

10/15 per day average ish , depending on closures and weather etc

[SMD]

I was thinking about 10 a day i hope!

[bryce]

Thats not expensive at all imo then.

[SMD]

4 days = 400 euro plus fuel! :beer:

how many laps do you guys normally do in a weekend?

Like Daz, i tend to do between 10 and 15 per day too, depending on closures of course! Normally do around 40 over a 3 day weekend. :smt023

Fuel is a bit of a hidden bill too and sneaks up on you! The car drops to around 10-12mpg depending on how hard you push. You'll be amazed at how quick the needle drops after just 3 quick laps in succession...! :119: :hahaha:

Yes.. as much as I like JC he is singularly responsible for completely ruining that place.

I agree.... my initial thought was that 20 laps a day.... that would be..... well lets say quite expensive compared what we pay for a track day in Finland (50-100 euros a day).

But lets face it our tracks are total shite compared to most of the tracks in europe.

Obviously i'm misunderstanding the reality of driving in that track if 10-15 laps is the reality.... (traffic etc.)

Yeah I thought we'd get more in than that, but at 10-15, thats just average track day price almost. And its one of the best in the world! :notworthy:

[glendog74]

Just remember guys, a lap at the Ring is over 13 miles long and can be anything from a flying low 8mins lap to approaching 10mins if the track is busy or has a few crash scenes during your lap!

10 laps = 90mins of sheer "awesomeness" (to quote Kung-Foo Panda!) :thumbs:

[AlexGTT]

I find it's usually better to get laps in early in the day. The afternoons usually desend into totaly chaos and all you do is line up move forwards two yards and the track closes for an accident. I now get 8 or 10 laps in before 12-1pm then forget it for the rest of the day on the busy ones. Just look at nice cars in the car park and hit the bar to wind up for the nights food and beer. :beer: :wink:

[whopwop]

I think the most I ever managed in a day was about 24, however its not uncommon to only manage 6 or 8 due to accidents, even if you are there all day.
If you intend on doing a few trips during the seasion then the annual ticket is fantastic, you can pop out and do a few cruise laps, just taking your time and really examining corners etc whereas if you are purchasing single or group tickets then you tend to feel that you must go quickly at every lap... get your moneys worth if you will.
