Yes, seriously considering it. I heard it will be 549 Euro including hotel, catering, trackwalk etc. 105 dB too for those noisy folks.
Also, Lotus Cup Europe is at Spa right afterwards (Fri, Sat, Sun). Should be a cracking trip.
Details are due out from RSR any time now…
From Dale at RSR:
I’m writing to let you know that we’re currently in final talks with the hotels & caterers for the event as well as the Nurburgring.
We have our dates set as 29th and 30th of September 2010.
We are planning to have a half day on the F1 circuit (1pm to 6pm) and the same half day on the Nordschleife as last year (8am to 1pm), as well as food, trackwalk and this time an end of event BBQ too.
The good news is that both track sessions will be ‘noisy’ this year, that means a limit that will be 105dB drive-by minimum. The management are actually talking about a higher limit during ‘business hours’. But I’m sure 105 dB will be more than enough for 99% of us.
Obviously the extras all add up… and the price this year will likely be �549 per entry. I’m pretty happy that it’s only a �50 increase for a proper ‘noisy’ 5-hour session on the circuit. More time on the Nordschleife would have been nice, as would a Thursday-Friday combo instead - but I’ll take what I can get right now
Thanks for your patience. I’ll be posting booking forms online on March 1st LATEST
Some other stuff you might want to know:
� Lotus Cars will be attending, maybe in an increased capacity
� We will have another 6 exiges for any customers who can’t bring their own cars
� We hope to be offering taxi laps in our own 2-Eleven… that’ll be a 7 minute lap for anybody brave enough to hop in.
LASTLY: Please feel free to reproduce this email on any relevant Lotus forums, or indeed to forward it on to your buddies via email.
I can’t wait!
Cheers,
Dale Lomas
Now open for bookings:
RSR Lotus on Track clicky

What else?
Nordschleife Trackwalk - we take busses on to the circuit and give you expert tuition as we walk through the difficult sections
A meal and some booze - we’re torn between a BBQ and kegs vs buffet and taps, but expect something along those lines. VEGGIE OPTIONS INCLUDED THIS TIME
A night’s accommodation at the 'Ring…
What’s the accommodation?
Packages come in four flavours and prices this year:
�549 - Bronze (100 places): Staying at the new Holiday village in Drees (about 3 minutes drive from the circuit entrance). These are like Butlins in theory, but really, really posh! You stay in 3-bedroom houses with 5 beds and a fully-fitted kitchen. It’s self-catering, but there’s a breakfast bar and canteen on site. You also have FREE access to many of the Spa and health programmes. There is a creche, BBQ huts, and more… if you want to bring the family for a week, then you could alsoask me for a price for a whole house for 3 days…
�599 - Silver (only 20 places!): Staying at the 3* Lindner, opposite the Eifel Dorf disco. You’ll be two to a room and walking distance from the GP track. This includes breakfast and is only �25 more than the previous package. We expect these to sell out fast! First come, first served.
�649 - Gold (only 20 places!): Same as above, but you have the room to yourself. No sharing. Again, these will go fast. Couples wanting to share a room can both select Silver. It’s the same thing.
�675 - Platinum: Same as above, but now you’re in the very posh and spanky 4-star Motorsports congress hotel. Note that you’re guest can share this twin room with you at a very decent cost.
All drivers and guests will automatically be partnered together. If you want to know more about anything, please don’t hesitate to get in touch!
Yours faithfully,
Dale Lomas - RSR N�rburg
