. I'm no "Ring King" but I've been enjoying it now for nearly 6 years / 500+ laps, abiding by the above rules.

You've done 500+ laps!? You should be a king by now! :supz::thumbs:

Sadly not m8... that place still gives me a bloody good scare, every time I venture out, at the beginning of each new season but it's a health kind and it keeps me pointing shiny side up and going the right way around :hahaha: ( Shimmy ) :blalalala:
This year will be my first time in my own CSL @ the Ring so should be quite interesting :whistle: Can't wait for the snow to melt

I for one am chuffed the roads have dried up, making life a lot easier and much quicker getting anywhere

Can anyone shed more light on ADAC cover? I've asked about it before with Ring go'ers and people that are experienced over there but am getting mixed reactions, I'm finding that the ADAC could now be excluding the Ring and only cover you from the car park onwards, i.e. won't recover you from the track if you have a smash or a breakdown?

Can anyone confirm, otherwise I'll look into European cover with The AA or the RAC?

Also those with extended warranties what's the BMW breakdown like and where and what do they cover on the continent/in connection with the Ring?

Dan, I have both ADAC cover and BMW Plus warranty, as a punishment for scaring you about your oil level, I will check out about the recovery from the Ring by ADAC.As far as I can make out in their T's & C's, which are in German,the Northloop isnt specifically excluded so should therefore be included.
Regarding Eurocover with RAC & AA, I would think that you will need to be a few clicks distance from the Ring to be in with a chance of being recovered, which isnt a fat lot of use if no 1 piston is in no 2 cylinder !!!

My BWM Plus warranty also covers me for roadside repair or recovery to nearest BMW stealer, again, no mention is made about exclusion from Ring recovery. Bugger ...Im covered twice !! Maybe i didnt need the ADAC cover after all :banghead:
Out shooting al day tomoz mate :thumbs: , will revert when known.

Great article Rob. I've enjoyed reading it. I've stayed at the Ringpension in Adenau. Dutch people run it and they're very kind. The owner drives a Porsche GT3 and he has done more than 4k laps. Definitely worth considering.

I thought I'd enclose a little reminder (seeing as the BIG Ring trip is just around the corner) especially useful for the RFTs (Ring First Timers) just how easily & quickly things can turn for the worst :whistle: Please try not to replicate this :hahaha:
