Pretty amazing, I would love to see how it would do "de-restricted" and actually geared for the ring/without a passenger.

What a ride...

What’s even more mind boggling than that headline is that he had a passenger, and he wasn’t even trying that hard. In fact, he slows down several times (for reasons as yet unknown) and …

So!

After chatting with Brendan of (Sliders Guest House) today, it has been advised that we aim for the week follwing easter weekend (Monday 17th April 207). This will give us the best chances regarding the weather and it should not be too busy meaning we can get the maximum enjoyment from our visit.

My thoughts are: to leave on the Monday morning and stay Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs and Fri nights before heading back home on the saturday.

Nothing is set in stone at the moment as we need to await the release of the official track calendar to ensure nothing clashes with our plans.

There will be a list of excursions available while there (for example Go Karting, the Ring museum, various restaurants etc).

This will help you calculate fuel costs for the trip.

It is a 10 hours, 619 miles (each way excluding fuel/rest stops etc). This is calculated from a start point of Cornwall services, staying at Sliders Guest House before returning to Cornwall services again.

So if your car does 25mpg on a run and your petrol costs £1.12/litre you can expect to pay £126.07 each way (excluding any excursions or track time of course).

Here is a table you can refer to.

10mpg £630.34 Return trip 1238 miles
15mpg £420.23 Return trip 1238 miles
20mpg £315.17 Return trip 1238 miles
25mpg £252.14 Return trip 1238 miles
30mpg £210.11 Return trip 1238 miles
35mpg £180.10 Return trip 1238 miles
40mpg £157.59 Return trip 1238 miles
45mpg £140.08 Return trip 1238 miles
50mpg £126.07 Return trip 1238 miles
