Gran Turismo Nurburgring 2011
Gran Turismo Nurburgring 2011
The holy grail of motor sport lies deep in the Eifel mountains of Germany - the Nurburgring. It is, mildly put, the most respected circuit in the world with millions of fans.
Following our exclusive day in 2010, we are proud to present the main event for this season - Gran Turismo Nurburgring 2011. Three consecutive days of driving on the track. Three days of heaven in the green hell with fellow super car owners from all over Europe. No tourists. No motorcycles. No buses. Actually no other traffic at all. Just you and the most demanding track in the world. The way it should be.
The dates we have are perfect. They are immediately after the easter which is a classic touristenfahrt weekend. If you come down a couple of days before you can have 8(!) consecutive days of driving on the Nurburgring. This has to be a record of some kind. Even the most hard core Nurburgring freak can probably not (with)stand eight days of such mental punishment in a row.

21 kilometres of heaven and hell
Nurburgring is, by far, the most prestigious racetrack in the world. Stretching almost 21 kilometres it is a true challenge for all drivers. Learning the track is nothing one can do in an afternoon - it is often a lifetime project for many members of the sportscar community to master the ring.
The interest in the track has risen sharply in recent years, where car manufacturers laptimes around the track have become more relevant performance figures than the standard 0-100 acceleration or top speed.
Exclusive days
While the event is limited to approximately 100 cars you can be sure to get the ultimate Nurburgring experience. The track will be clear from motorcycles, buses and other disturbing features of an open public day.
As the track is entirely yours you dont have to stop at Grune Hölle each lap, but keep the gas pedal to the floor right from Döttinger Höhe all the way to Tiergarten - something that most of us only have experienced in computer games.
Since the number of cars on the track are so few you will probably do some laps without seeing any other traffic at all. A mighty feeling on such a large track, and an opportunity to really test the limits of your vehicle.
Safety and instructors
Both newcomers and more experienced drivers on the Nurburgring are welcome to use any of the experienced instructors we have employed for the event, all of them Nurburgring Officials.
Nurburgring is a dangerous track with minimal safety margins. Our event comes with full safety package with marshalls, ambulances, firetrucks and helicopters if an incident should occour on the track.
Accomodation - Dorint Hotel

Nurburgring is actually 2 tracks. The Nordschleife and the Gran Prix Circuit. The infamous Nordschleife is mother of all racetracks. 21 kilometers of twist, turns and long straights that has written itself into history as the greatest racetrack of all time. The newer GP track gives you all the trills a modern F1 style racetrack can give
