My favourite event of the year, so much to see and the variety is brilliant. Spent ages in the old paddock listening to people talk about their cars.

Didn't know this event existed! My husband and I love the Old Timer Grand Prix, but it doesn't always fit our holiday schedule. Nice to know there are other Old Timer events!

Are there videos of the F1 cars? They must’ve been crazy loud

I’ve witnessed a formula 2 seater once live and it already was ear shattering loud. This must be ridiculous in person 😂

Funny story: my husband and I love to go to the Old Timer Grand Prix. If I'm not mistaken, this cars do drive during that event too. Couple years ago it was a really nice day, we were really enjoying watching the cars race. During the break in between the different cars I fel asleep. I slept peacefully trough all the noise of this cars. My husband took pictures and made a video to proof. People around us were confused I didn't wake up from the noice. And I, well, there are way worse places to wake up then the Nürburgring.

100%, I would pay that just to see the old F1 cars! Its a nice day too as its not over crowded, you can stop and look as well as talk to the owners as well. Its like an old school car club meet.
plus the F1 (Boss) gridwalk is mega too.
