As Rob says whatever you would normally carry on a Euro / track day outing, I only take Cash - toothbrush and a change of everything !!
The law says your supposed to carry the Kitchen sink, thats if you get stopped of course , as long as were pretty tame through France and Belg we should be OK for some awesome twisty fast roads once we get into germany and home in on the ring :hahaha: AKA Marks last mens room pic :whistle:
Outside of that bring your best drinking hat, if my normal trips are anything to go by new ribs through laughing, and lots of concentration when your out there:drool:

Good little article on the back page of this months Evo mag on the ring....
"Nothing like it would get built today. In fact nothing like it has been built since. A race track more than 17 miles long with over 170 corners and draped over a mountainous landscape that would see it rise and fall by almost 1000 feet a lap" !!
"In many places trees and hedges were growing just feet away from the edge of the track. Jackie Stewart later called it 'The Green Hell' As tests of car and driver go, it's yet to be bettered"
Pretty much sums it up Mark !! Love seeing people's face after there first ever lap round :smokin::supz:

I don't know what you mean, I have never ever done over 170 on those roads as the limit is 120km:-D
Rob can vouch for that !

Bring tea bags so you can make a decent cup of tea & a pillow, German pillows are a bit like CSL's... lightweight.

ADAC, hi vis vest for each person in the car, doubles up as a yellow flag if you come across a crash at the 'ring too so useful anyway.
Pop the 'ring office number in your mobile in case you crash \ drop fluids \ come round to corner to find a biker in the middle of the road.
Might want to check it is still correct when you get there but the one in my phone is: +492691302215
