Nürburgring Tourist Laps? (1 Viewer)

[timinater]

I may find myself in Germany this July and if time allows, I think it would be a really cool experience to do some tourist laps of the ring. I've only looked into it a bit, but seems like to rent a car and pay the tourist lap(s) toll would be something like 250 Euro.

So, anyone done it?

I suggest you take a ringtaxi...

You'll experience a lot more what seems impossible with a car instead of being stressed in a underassured race car with 200K cars flying by

This, 100%. I mean, I'd love to try my hand at it too, but I know my limitations. It is a very technically demanding track and one must really know it intimately before one attempts to drive it petal-to-the-metal. Otherwise, you're just scared money squeaking by. You'll have a blast too, especially if the driver narrates the loop for you while driving it.

But yeah, once you've had a guided drive, if you're still champing at the bit, go for it. But make sure your insurance coverage is up to the task.

Did they reopen after the fatal multi car crash recently? The one where the 911 slicked the road.

IMO, the Hockenheimring is more approachable and certainly more affordable for multiple laps, either in a RingTaxi or a rented racecar.
