Can someone explain to me how is the insurance when driving on Nurburgring... I guess my normal insurance does not cover any accident there, right?
So is there any other insurance for the time I am lapping there?

Therefore, every insurance company HAS to pay for accidents that happen there.
BUT:
Your insurance will claim, that you were driving "grossly negligent". This kind of driving is NOT covered. However, reckless driving is still covered and they can't proof that your driving was "grossly negligent".
So, if you have a crash, you will have trouble with your insurance, allthough it is a regu8lar German street and they have to pay for accidents.
The outcome of a fight with your insurance could be, they pay for damages on other cars and the Ring cleaning, etc... Not for your car... And the contract is history.
However, I'd check my insurance policy to be sure, or call them.
They will not pay in any case, when you are participating in a race on closed circuit, but that you don't. The Ring is open to the public and a regular German (toll) Highway.

If you are not going to be there on Saturday then I will miss you guys. There's a whole day of Jazz concerts here that I won't miss.
Let me know where and what time do we meet. I posted a reply in another thread last night as well.
Looking forward to it.

Sorry for the delay in replying and the lack of pics on the other thread - its been 18 hour days this last few weeks to make up the time for going to the ring this week
Pics will arrive soon
Back OT, Tim, Peter & Teresa, and myself and Debbie will be there Sat night. Unfortunately the circuit won't be open (I've been informed) as there is a young timers race - that might be worth watching?
Either way we'll be eating Sat eve - fancy meeting us for that?
Not sure if you have my mobile or not (I don't think I've got yours
) but I'll PM it to you anyway.See you tomorrow!

Let me know about Monday and see what I can do. How late are you going to be there??
