4Speed trip to the Nurburgring
Hi all!
In addition to my track day company, I am also starting a Performance 4x4 driving club. Called 4Speed, we are open to any sort of performance/fast 4x4 and are going to be holding meetings all around the country and Europe!
In the first week of September, we are hosting a weekend trip to the Nurburgring for 20 Vehicles ONLY. This trip will provisionally include a very nice hotel, tours of various factories near the circuit (BMW M Division etc) and our very own ARDS Racing instructor to offer tips and tricks to driving the Nordschleife! There will also be a Silver G55 in the convoy so you wont feel left out at all! Me and my father are both avid G supporters!
The club is for ANYONE who has an interest of fast cars and we would love to hear your ideas for future trips!
Please give me a ring or drop me an email if you would like more information on 07789974405 or toby@greenovalracing.com!
Hope to hear from some of you soon!!

I am very interested in fast cars, having owned a few and am especially interested in fast 4x4's.
The G I drive will do 0-60 in just under 6 minutes, would I be welcome to join?

Is that by driving down the cliff face you took me up the other week Christo?:lol:
I went fast in a 4x4 once, shame it was backwards :cry:
ohhh could be up for this - depends if my own oil refinery is up and running then.
Spider1V - slow, but not as much as some others!
If you are coming to DE, would LOVE to join!!!!

What and risk being overtaken by some blond girl in a diesel transit van :wink: :lol:
I am sure I have the slowest G in the club, but I'm still faster than certain people on wet grass.

Can we at least agree on the fact that my G is the slowest in the club then?

Oh.all right then, but it was a toss up between yours, Russ280, PRWales and Dentsmithy's! 8) :lol:
Spider1V - Your never late in a V8!
"Spider1V - Your never late in a V8!"
perhaps not but you would have every chance of falling over on the Nurburgring; something for the "U-bend/spaceface" generation to enjoy. :lol: :lol: :wink:

And mine!! Don't forget I have a 300GD as well...
mine's petrol but I do drive slowly :wink:
Pok you have a 300, but you don't have 33' mud terrain tyres.
I have to say that in all the years on all the off road forums I have never been invited to take my 4x4 to the Nurburgring :!:
I think you have found yourself a real niche market, although perhaps a very very small one :shock:

I think you have found yourself a real niche market, although perhaps a very very small one shockim hoping to attract the faster versions of 4x4s! it is indeed a niche market and with the tuning industry in the Land Rover world being so new but flourishing, we are hoping to have a good go at letting people enjoy themselves finding out how their vehicles handle at speed in a safe and responsible manor and under the watchful eye of ARDS instructors! Even if your car is geared toward off-road use but has some power to boot, we are going to be running days all around the country and Europe and hopefully some drag days at Santa Pod... Launching in July so if you want to come along to one of our days and just see what goes on you are more than welcome!

oh the Ducatti is nice as well :wink:
Ducati Monster, always fancied one of those although I do have a Ducati paddock jacket which makes everyone think I have got the bike.
I actualy have a Yamaha Vmax which has a nitro kit and scares the sh*t out of me. I also think it might be a bit "chav" :oops:
