Although this is still months away we may as well get it up now so that people can make arrangements and save some money for the trip.

Over Easter 2009 the VR6OC plan on taking their yearly pilgrimage to the Nurburgring in Germany. "The longest and most terrifying race track in the world."

It fell in March in 2008 and was very, very cold but in 2009 it's 3 weeks later falling on Sunday 12 April.

We will be looking to go out on Friday 10th April and return on Monday 13th April.

Camping is E12 a day . No need to book camping as it's a big site.
