Anyone going? At the GP track of the Nurburgring, great event! I will be there all three days.

You can see photos from last years' OGP here

Note: historic F1 and group C racing take turns. As you can see on last years pics they had the group C cars, so this years it's historic F1. Saw that in action in 2006 and it's well worth going again!

damn it, ill be in germany (and parts of europe) around that time too. Wonder if I can fly from norway to germany, check it out then catch a flight back to the UK in time to fly to italy for the 16th.

I'll go again this year , what would be the best day out of the three to see the e9s and other bmws from that era . Have you got a race timetable yet.

Last year I went on the foggy Saturday . Maybe i'll meet up with you for a beer if you fancy it as I don't think I will see you at Lelystad this year due to the crazy banning of the E21s ?

Also is this oldtimer show in Zandvoort worth going to in September , is it bigger than Lelystad.
Best wishes

Madhatter & Paul,

Would be great to meet up, especially if you're travelling from far away Australia!

Programme is not available yet but usually it's the same for Sat and Sun, Friday is a little more basic I believe (like in 2006 there was the FXX demo in Sat and Sun).

Meaning the E9's will be -at least- in action both Sat and Sun and I would love to meet up for a beer or two one of these days.

Regarding the weather, doesn't matter what country you visit, the weather is always great until Paul turns up like that foggy day that was highly unusual, expect sunshine and temperatures over 25 degrees this year!

Zandvoort might be a great event, not only BMW but quite a lot BMW's. We're also trying to plan a meet around August 28.

Jeroen ,
Saturday and Sunday it is then , bring an umbrella as I am definately coming. Have you bought your tickets yet or did you pay at the gate .
Also whats the best viewing point . I was near the bridge next to the car parking .

What have you guys organised in place of Lelystad ? I think you should all still come in your E21s and park in the car park outside and have your own show as a protest.

Just to let you know that there is no support for this banning by the Dutch 2002 club from the English 2002 forum , we all think it's a big mistake.

Good!

I usually spend a lot of time at the Castrol S at the end of the straight, lot of sweet drifting going on there but I also move around... the privileges of the press card.

E21 meet in NL
We regret not being welcome at the 02 club meet as we see a lot of similarities but we also understand their wish to go back to basics more. But we haven't set a date yet, aiming for Aug 28 but will have to see. Also we want to meet up at the National Oldtimer Festival at the Zandvoort track Sept 26.

Programma for the OGP is available now, still waiting for the entry list tho

Now there's an idea.

well, better come to the sharknose meet on August 28 and bring all 02 friends, that'll teach them we already have 6 or 7 02's but we expect more... and over 50 E21's!
