As you can see in the 'Cannonball Run'-related thread, having a Rennteam.comball Run seems to be an interesting idea. So here a few ideas to start digging into that idea more seriously!

  • dates: end of june, early july (so that mountain passes are free of snow)
  • duration: 3-7 days
  • roadmap: Germany, Switzerland, Italy, France, Spain, Austria, Benelux (in no specific order)
  • events: visit of factories (Porsche, Ferrari, Maserati, Mercedes, Pagani, you name it), track-sessions (1/2 a day, maybe with an instructor available), go-kart, skydiving (I used to be an instructor...), etc.
  • organization: decentralized - each of a few volunteers would organize a part of the trip (I could for example take care of the swiss part of the trip)
  • costs: registration fee paid in advance (maybe to RC) in order to avoid no-shows. During the trip, everyone pays for his own costs (hotel, fuel, etc)
  • style: relaxed and fun!


Ok guys, these are only suggestions. Please add yours, and we'll for sure come up with something great!

Even if you have no specific suggestion, please raise your hand so that we roughly know how many people would be part of it!
