Added my preferences. Also added a line for the weekends when we can actually drive on the ring. 18th is half-ok, but there are only 4 or so hours on Sunday evening when ring is open and it will be quite unpleasant I think. So I opted it out.

Leaving tomorrow early morning. The time depends on with whom Jill takes a ride. Either way I should be at the ring noonish.

We should totally grab a beer at the party night.

indeed we should!

I´ll be there tomorrow as well, probably early afternoon. I suspect the traffic will be quite horrible though...

Oh come on. The exams are on weekends? You can drive there and back in one day, crossing out entire month because you have some exams at some point is lame.

Also, I'll ban you from #gear for whole July so you can concentrate on exams, deal? images/smilies/wink.gif

29th of august is winning.

Here's a 3 day program according to ring schedule:

Code:
Saturday, 29.08.09   VLN Lauf 7 (Sprintstrecke/Nordschleife)
                     17:30 - 19:30 Touristenfahrten (Nordschleife) 
                     19:30 - 21:00 Track Walk (Nordschleife)

Sunday, 30.08.09     08:00 - 19:30 Touristenfahrten (Nordschleife) 

Monday, 31.08.09     17:15 - 19:30 Touristenfahrten (Nordschleife) 
                     18:15 - 20:00 Touristenfahrten (Grand-Prix-Strecke)
Sounds decent, should we finalize it? I don't see any other suitable weekend.

I seem to remember that something has come up for on that week-end, but since I don't even remember what that was, I agree to finalize the meet for that date. We could even visit the VLN race...

Bad news for me too. As I've discovered, I can't go to Germany with Finnish temporary number plates. Which I will have to use before I get the car registered, and I can't do it until customs decide on the tax for me. The decision can take months, and the chance for it to arrive before August is slim.

I guess there's a possibility to get German yellow 5-day plates (Kurzzeitkennzeichen) which would allow me to drive in Germany, but... those are banned from the 'ring. This is all very depressing images/smilies/sad.gif

Considering skipping the meet... Anyone has a solution?

Oh, you mean Germans will close their eyes on such tiny offense? Because as we know they are very lax about rules and regulations... images/smilies/tongue.gif

I guess the only way is trying to sneak on to the ring with yellow plates. But that's one hell of a risk, driving thousands of km, paying up to thousand of eur, just to be turned around at the gate. Oh, and haven't even figured out yet how would one get yellow plates without being a resident in Germany.
