I am planning on going to Das Ring on 9/5 + 9/6 with a fully broken in and break in service completed M5. I am also planning on taking the M5 on the Ring. I have seen many YouTube videos as well, but I have been practicing on Forza 4 almost everyday just to learn the track. I will not be pushing the car at all, I just want to be able to say that I have driven an M5 on the Ring and get it on video.
I'm planning on a long trip down to Italy then through France to get to the Ring with 1,300 miles on the M5 by 9/5. If anyone wants to join me I'd love to have another M5 escort me on this epic trip. Here's my itinerary:
-August 31st - Sept 2nd: Munich
-Sept 2nd - Sept 3rd: Portofino, Italy
-Sept 3rd - Sept 4th: Monaco
-Sept 4th - Sept 5th: Luxembourg City
-Sept 5th - Sept 6th: Nurburging
-Sept 6th - Sept 7th: Munich - Drop off M5 at Drop off point near airport.
I got some pretty good hotel rates as well for my trip.
I may do the Factory Tour when we get back to Munich as we will miss the opportunity if it is closed that weekend.
