Can we not just all meet up on french soil?
I mean if you guys catch a train at 7:20 and we catch a boat at 5:50 am - then surely we'll all get to france around the same time?
Just an idea? pick a services and meet up?
I really want to come with you lot, but if I'm going to be made to feel a 'outsider' - out of the 'in crowd' and never with you lot, then It'll be a bit shit for me.
Both times I've been before we've all stayed fairly tightly together, even when we've stayed in different places. Usually meeting up at the ring each day, meeting to do activities and meeting up for dinner / drinks each night.
What I don't want to do, is come and find i'm staying in a hotel away from you chaps and never see you the entire time I'm there. If that's going to be the case then I'm not sure i should be going with you lot?
Can anyone confirm whether the plan is to keep everyone together as much as possible, or whether everyone plans to be in 'their own group' and it's up to everyone else to do what they like 'if they want to'...
i.e. 'We've booked dinner at pistonclause' - 'You could've joined us but if you haven't booked, you'll have no chance getting in'. ?

Put it this way, it's hard enough to scrape money out of people for this and that, booking people accomdation/dinners/track walks and getting them to cough up is a logistical nightmare for Willay.
BUT, when we are there it's fairly straight forward to meet up with everyone FFS Paul, don't be a gimp nobody gets left out. There is enough of us going.

there isnt an in crowd paul
there is everyone else, and me/willay and rach/ollie in the astra's on in team eurostar 
prob is paul, there is a fucking massive group of people going
i know lee303 quite well, and spanish a bit (will, fad olliem rach have met them), so no doubt we'll go out with them at some point to a bar (the one with agressive darts , but same respect id imagine they will go out to diffrent places etc in the eve
birchie boy is bringing kent with him, so no doubt we;ll have mass banter with them
but people will do diffrent things id expect
stop worrying, and no we havent booked any places anywhere apart from the ring walk

In reply to both, it's not so much 'meeting up' ... it's 'finding out what's going on' ... It's easy when you're staying in the same place, or their are groups of you all staying together, i.e. the OJC group and the Butler / Warren group... but I'm in neither.
So I'll have to keep checking up 'whats the plan'.
Look at Adam B and me, I saw him on the ferry but after that, it was no more than occasionally spottings of each other ... I know we didn't go together, but shows you how you can not be in the same place at the same time for a whole weekend.

Basically the gist is, I've always wanted to go to the ring with the CS lot. I love CS banter and know it should be brilliant. However, nurburgring trips only come around about once a year and I really don't want to have a bad one.
The track action is only part of the equation, it's so much about having fun as a group, eating together and drinking together.

the ferry has caused an issue, but it will be sorted
there will be mass banter, lots of german beer, and piss taking, with a little bit of death thrown in

yeah paul dont worry, we might be sleeping in different places but we will always meet up for dinner, lunch, laps, walking sessions to different corners etc just gotta text each other and be organised when we're in germany.
Plus we're going to have abit of a 'pad' going at our apartment so we can have some beers in the evening or organise a small drink up in Adenau

Although pauls idea of a meet up on french soil would be good though. then it allows people to travel there in what ever way they want and meet up and go from there. If the ferry lot just leave a little earlier then the train lot it should work out should it not?
