My European road trip

[lotuscc]

Stats:

1607 miles. The 350Z makes a great long distance cruiser.

28.6 mpg

5 countries: France, Belgium, Luxemburg, Germany, Netherlands.

 

Visit to Nurburgbring Nordschleife (met another 350Z owner there from the Netherlands).

 

Track condition: Wet

 

Followed another driver round. Fortunately he knew the circuit and I simply copied his braking points and dived into corners at the same high speeds as him. Best thing about the circuit is the blind browes, gradient changes and steepness of the bowls.

Nice.

Been thinking of a drive to Austria this summer

Roads are so much less congested in Europe generally. You can cover great distances relatively quickly.
