Easter weekend at the ring is a nightmare, to much people, you just can't drive, the track was closed many hours during the 3 days last year for crashes.

a week before of later regarding that Easter weekend would be better.

I love the idea anyway Csl meet at the ring of spa..

Good point David - not much point choosing a weekend when every man and his dog are going to be there.

[david]

the big problem on that weekend, is because it's a national day off for europeen countries before or just after for us French, belgium, german and dutch we just point a day off at work and it give is a 5 day holyday weekend so everybody goes there for at least 3 days.. and you just can't drive in fact

Normally on good weekend at the ring you can manage 15-20 laps of 2 days when it's a rush, (on Easter for exemple) most of my friend managed 6/8 laps...

Agreed - a day or two either side of a weekend always works well. I tend to get most laps in on a Friday or Monday when it's quieter, then do more viewpoints/'car spotting' during the busier weekend

What i like about Easter is that the atmosphere is simply buzzing -more so than a normal weekend - downside is the large crowds mean more time queuing, more accidents, more dickheads on track and less laps for you! Plus the Pistenklause is too packed with 90% of the newbies having steak on a stone = stingy eyes!



I'll be there though at Easter regardless!!


Thurs/Fri/Sat on track, Sunday spectating, back on track Monday Home Tuesday


Best laps are late Monday evening, the locals have gone home, and 75% of the Brits have gone home, you've just got to make sure you dont kill your tires too soon and miss out

Maybe all depends on cost. As mentioned before baby due end of Jan so pennies a bit tight as wife not working for a year.

Later in the year would be better for me as Easter weekend is the wifes birthday. Could tell her I'm taking her to Europe for her birthday I suppose ...so once things firmed up will let you know one way or other.

Ok , im there at Easter regardless , come rain , shine or Snow as it was last year !.. so agree with all your comments , about how busy etc , so will look at dates after easter as it seems later is better for some , reckon June / July ish then , so depending on when its open Max , as some week days its only open from 4pm etc , so we can get max all day times in at everyones pace.

When the dates are released , I will get everyones opinion and as many DELMONTE's as I can , then book the hotel for everyone ... and the restaurant (http://www.am-tiergarten.de/en/restaurant/) Pistenklaus for all of us ...
