Just go slow. Last time I went, there were a couple of guys on antique motorbikes. They did the entire 'Ring really slowly - like no more than 30mph all the way around :thumbup:
I don't think i'd have the self control to do that i'd just end up going for it and scaring myself silly - or you'd just see a focus shaped hole in the armco.

I went to the ring a few years ago, when I was in the Evo fraternity, my mate lasted about 50 seconds before scaring the life out of himself. I did have a nice trip around the ring with Miss Sebrine's taxi company mind.

As for going slow around there. I don't think that is the point of the exercise really lol

Nah you'd just have to go fast but keep it within your limits i'd prob try and hook up with somone expericned and just ride shotgun for a few laps to get the basic idea of the circuit so there's no massive suprises.

I imagine its soo easy to get disorianted on there and think your at one part then suddnely your on the carousel or somthing.

In a volvo you'd be safe but you'd be dragging bits of other cars around with you that drove into you.

well apart from the fact its spa :cloud9:
Some roads have to be closed for the day aswell.I remember thinking it was very strange driving on a normal road then driving past grandstands,I felt like waving to the fans till I realised I was on the road ,the stands were empty and I wasn't infact an f1 driver :wink:

What a track to go round in full though.If I was going to do it i would have to hire something nice to do it in for the day :hehe:
