On Sunday morning we will have a Circuit Briefing in the Snowball Rally Paddock right next to the start area. Then it’s over to you! The circuit is open for public driving where you will take on the most notorious circuit in Europe for as many laps as you like.

The prize winners of the ‘Killy Rally’ will experience the Nurburgring at racing speeds in a BMW M5 with a Pro Driver.  The circuit is open to all cars and any experience of driver, so whether you are a complete petrol head or just thrashing your company car, you are sure to have an amazing time.

By lunch time your tyres should be bald and engine toast, so we will have our Snowball Rally Prize Giving, we have some great prizes and trophies to award.
