I was there last September with a mate and we rented from rent4ring.

Rent4Ring | Race car rentals at the Nurburgring Nordschleife

RSR was booked out, (nor do i have as much money as Mr Bright) If you can, book in advance and get a right hooker, most rental companies have them.


Unfortunately we were there on a day that the track was only open for 1 hour, restricting us to just 2 laps, one each, sharing a little track prepped Suzuki Swift. I know don't laugh, but to be honest we had hoot, often flat to the floor but HP is not what the 'ring' is about. It really is madness, unrestricted vehicles and speed, we flew passed a Testarossa and a mad guy in a VW combi attempted to run us off the track. There were 2 prangs which unfortunately didnt close the track, but it's made quite clear that if this happens there's no refunds.

So, tick it off your bucket list and take PLENTY of $$.....a must do for any petrol head.

BTW the superbikes were practicing on the main track with free entry....you must get up in the grandstand if you can, it's bloody huge.
