Last Augustus. Were should we go to? We will see.
Total trip mileage 3975 km (2470 miles). Total fuel? Never mind... Coffee and beer? Lots of it.
First stop place, Genk Belgium. Saw on web there was a cosmos expo. Get some Belgium beer and some cheap propane, and there we go.
Navigate to Nurburgring Germany, maybe there is something to see there. While driving there I I came across quite a few tuned cars and classic cars. Oh wait, there is a oldtimer/grand prix event, get a look.
Walking between paddocks where men on various vehicles are still busy on fixing there stuff. Here and there engines started and drive to the start. While it was a very rainy day, they did drive quite fast.
After that looking for a campsite. A small and mud path to the campsite that seemed like it was not going anywhere. Fortunately we found one where several people visit the event. Met several people, enjoying drinking beer at a campfire. I went to the event next day with two French car guys.
At the end of the day it was still possible to drive your own car on the northern part of the circuit. Quickly, back to the campsite to get the car.
A few minutes before closing time I entered the circuit. It took 25 minutes for the Nordschleife to drive. It was more like a cruise, was overtaken by a work van ..
