Now sold out. 10 speedsters from the benelux, and 15 vx's. Looking forward to this.   Time to beat is 1.53 http://www.vx220.org...ndvoort-videos/

Anyone know what times NAs would be doing?

2.06 would be nice.

 

 

For the first timers, Zandvoort has 2 places where you can get it wrong.

In above video at 0.38 gerlach corner. (very little run off)

And at 1.02 Slotemakers corner. (only brake on top of hill, and not before, keep car straight as there is a slight bump there, and you need to get ready for a hard brake once over the hill, and then a right turner)

Thanks for the tips!

Here's the names of the corners for better reference.

And when it all goes horribly wrong there  :

 

Attacking slotemakers the right way is extremely awsome, but please build up carefully.

One thing for most to be aware of, was that many of us had fuel starvation I think at Audi S Bocht. The way around the problem, in cars with normal fuel tanks, was to keep them above half full all the time. Theres a fuel station on the track but also two very close outside.

 

 

If anyone has trouble with rooms ring the hotel direct or try other sites.

We are going to ring shortly before we go and tell them of the numbers coming and ask that they staff the bar late on Saturday night as last time it closed early, but, we were told it could have been open if warned in advance.

True but I wouldn't risk it

You're 5 minutes walk away from Zandvoort 'city' center. Literally take the street down and go to the right. Fcuk the hotel bar.

[Joss]

Haven't booked ferry yet, booked in NH for thurs

[Zoobeef]

The Mrs has already said she doesn't want to just sit at the bar at the hotel so I may have to go out. Or she can go alone haha.

The hotel lies at the boulevard of the beach.

You would be daft spending your time at the hotel bar with nice places at a 2 min walk.

 

 

[P11 COV]

Somewhere nice to eat Thursday and Friday Evening would be good.

 

Martin - Trackday is Friday - you going to be in the bar until Sat eve?

The problem there was that he had two hands on the sterring wheel. He was find on all the onehanded corners!

I've told her she's paying half the hotel and ferry costs so there has to be some give and take haha.

Since you're towing, your misses could take some of the other ladies in the towcar to Amsterdam for shopping.

It's a 25 min drive.

[Zoobeef]

Not sure she'll want too drive it in a foreign country. She has an aygo and it's an estate. Also she's only 23 so I'm not even sure if she can drive it on her insurance :/
