It was really strange because as you entered a corner you thought i know this :shock: You could see that when they say they have taken all the best corners from the best tracks you know they mean it :lol:

We are up for next March and it would be nice & a laugh if we could get a group of us to go

I reckon it has cost me about £1200
That includes
4 nights B & B in a 4* hotel
3 days on probably one of the best tracks in europe
a spare set of tyres taken out there for me
Bike transport out & back
300 euros spending

The trip ( hotel and on track ) was £600

I know that " No limits" paid out 52000 Euros for the hire of the track for 3 days

Dave just googled "car hire Alacante airport" and it was 3rd or 4th on the list.

Prebooked without having to pay untill you pick it up.

Damage waver was as just another 12 euro.
