    Again... thanks for posting these great pics... Sorry, I thought you were already finished when I posted that other reply. Sure looks like it was a great event.

    I think me and Waldo have the same feeling at the moment! Why weren't we there!? Well, I guess you can't have everything :(;) CU all for sure at one of the next events...

    I know... :( but I really had to be in Paris for the show on Saturday and couldn't reschedule work on sunday... I still need to earn money for my F-car you know ;):D That brings me to the next...

    Yes, I saw that earlier, but I initially thought it was an owner-only event, and since I don't have a Ferrari yet, I thought I wasn't welcome...
    But I had a better and closer look now and saw people CAN come as a visitor too... :D Still a question wich answer I couldn't find... I figured out the 3euro entrance fee is to see the cars on display in Schwetzingen... no problem... but I wonder if it's also possible for non-owners to visit Hockenheim to see the cars going around the track?

    Unfortanately I already know now that I will have to work on that sunday 18th again... and there's again no other re-arrange option. But... :D Saturday could be fine! If no unexpected things are happening I'll be there for sure!

    BTW If anyone from Belgium or the Netherlands needs a ride... you can always ride along with me... Still have to tell Kelly about this :) don't know if she will join me yet...

    Alexander,
    driving at F1 track is only for F,L & M cars.
    BUT visitors are also very welcome.
    You can drive for sure to the Hockenheim Ring (just & only 3 km from the event place). Park your car outside, go to the spectator bleachers its open & free!!! Thats a great place to watch the cars driving around then track.

    Ok, thanks for the info :D I already knew only F, L & M cars were allowed on the track... no problem... I'm not going to do that with my poor car every month! :D
    It's nice to read you can also see the cars on track as a visitor...

    You are very welcome Alexander.
    About the driving on the F1 track:
    I`m not the organizer!!!!;)
    I just help NINO a little bit on the event, but I`m not responsible for the oganisation. We are over 200 cars and everybody wants to drive at the track. We will have 4 or 5 groups driving at different times. If we would also allowed to drive for other cars.......mhmmmm maybe 2.000 would like to drive...impossible:D And we already pay big cash for the rental of the track and the participants will pay a part of the cash with the €uro: 50,- for the package deal price;)

    Little misunderstanding here? ;):) Again, I know only F, L & M cars are allowed on the track... no problem with that at all. It's a good thing! I never intended to drive the circuit... the few laps on Francorchamps I did last week were a one time experience for my car... after all it's NOT a track car ;):D

    Alexander,
    no misunderstanding for sure:)
    But I have got sooooo many mails asking for driving with each car on the track during the event. I thought thats a good post from you to pick up the question and answer it.
