I wrote everything down as I spent it and I did £732 in total. Without the ring repairs obviously lol. Quite pricey but I was by myself. Although petrol was only £240 which tbh isn't that bad considering it's 950 miles I covered plus a quarter of a tank each lap and I did 7 laps. Plus 7mpg on the autobahn and sitting at about 15mpg all the way home

What did you guys spend on the place you all stayed at? Be handy to know rough prices in case we end up there.

where ojc+co stayed: http://www.eifelfreizeit.de/index_e.php
The place we stayed at was like 57 EUR each for 7 days, based on 4 people sharing and a 200 EUR cash deposit being given when you get there (fully refundable)

TBH accommodation and eating is very cheap out there as long as you stay away from the hotels.... the real cost is fuel and laps. I spent pretty much half of my spending money on laps while I was out there.

i wanted to go around the 6th of august till the 9th ive found accomodation which is £208 for me and the missus plus my daughter then the ferry was £67 plus food and fuel i wont be doing many laps maybe 2 or 3 but then they wont be flatout laps either only normal driving really then food so i reckon on £500-£600 for what is really just 2 days at the track is that really worth it or would it be better to wait till next yr and come with you lot and save a bit by going with a group

I came in at £550 included everything
Although I did less laps and my car doesnt drink like a fish
And that was eating and going out each night. If you bought food etc and cooked at the house it would be cheaper but then you miss all the fun

Not until next year now m8 as this was an expensive trip!
Will more than likely be taking the wife and kids next year though.
Total cost of my trip excluding damages £370 fuel, £85 for house and food £300 track time,£300 spending cash(food and drinks) bearing in mind that food is cheep but bar bills are not ( 10 people drinking some only coke and a round was around 50 euros.)
Total £1055 ish

Fair play, compared to Tonys my fuel costs were cheap, but I did alot less laps and was there less time I suppose
