Oh yes - Seems I do have the option to go on the ferry from Hull so may do that.

How long's the crossing from there and where does it land in Europe? Calais or up in Holland/Belgium?

10 hours IIRC and Rotterdam. Gets there for 8am Wednesday

10 hours!?!? Surely you'd be better off driving down to Folkestone, or is it much cheaper to go from Hull or something?

Dangerous · 18 Feb 2006 at 23:33

Works out about £20-40 more but I dont have the drive around the M25 which I truly hate. Means I leave tuesday night 9pm get to Rotterdam for 8am then should only take 3hours to get to the ring.

Vertigo · 19 Feb 2006 at 12:40

Ah so you'd have most of Wed there too - weren't you originally going out on the evening of Wed to get there very late that night? Are Tom & Andy still doing that then?

Dangerous · 19 Feb 2006 at 12:46

Aye plan is to go out Wednesday evening then get there late but if I go by ferry I would be there most of the day

Terms and Conditions of bets.
If Dave win gets to drive the M5 for the whole trip and gets too drive it home and tomo pays

If I can work out how much money I will need then I can give a defo yes or no to coming.

Anyone care to enlighten me.

I have two options. Drive myself (If I have a new car by then which I god damn hope I will or go with Ian in his AR and pay 1/2 Fuel).

Anyone give me a rough guide on costs please

Est costs would be about for the 4 days at the Ring:

4-5 tanks of fuel
£130 tunnel
£60 breakdown cover and insurance
£150 Hotel
£150 beer and food
£100 Ring Tickets
£40 Gokarts

In the summer months you can easily spend £500+
