I'd be well up for this.

Depends on money though, and if I can get lots of mates to drive to etc etc

I think the money spent will depend more on the amount of beer you drink rather than engine size!

well ok depends how many laps you do and how much fuel you use

ferry - Ԛ£60 if you stay longer than 5 days its got to cost more than this i guess.
stay - Ԛ£100 3nights
getting there Ԛ£120- 3 tanks of fuel
lapping only 12 laps - Ԛ£110
fuel for them laps - Ԛ£80
food Ԛ£45 for 3 nights
drink ?Ԛ£?
pads ,service , tires , oversea driving stuff u might not of had b4
and other food and drink getting there
oh and the sticker Ԛ£8

and thats a normal trip!


i did 35 laps of fuel
and i bought a Ԛ£500 year lap pass and i serviced shed loads on my car and eat loads and go-karted and god knows wat else
i also did a 4 nighter


your trip would be about 550 on a guess
