ojc i may actually go to the nurburgring on the way home, but your laughing at me there are some very very very demanding roads out there, yes the nurburgring might long, but south of france/swiss alps are alot longer, and i dare say more demanding to be honest.....
lets face it do you really push it at the ring i MEAN REALLY REALLY PUSH IT with the costs involved of totalling the barriers/your car etc etc etc etc......
im sure the ring is awesome ojc but why do you act like a prick, im just simply saying ive bin to south of france/alps and know there are some awesome awesome roads to be found without the worries involved

There's also some awesome steep drops and a distinct lack of quality armco on Alps mountain roads.
I'd say you push it a lot less on mountain roads than the Ring tbh.

You don't have to speed and push it on the Ring to make it feel special

Yeah you don't need to go flat out on the 'Ring (unless your Jr) to have fun there. Being on a race track is special enough in itself.

The views in the Alps are fantastic though  but then you're dealing with the French on the way

Easier than you imagine, just remember to give way to the left at roundabouts. You don't tend to see many roundabouts outside of Calais and you have to remember at junctions that cars will be coming the opposite ways to you are used to, that is the hardest thing to remember.
Oh and pulling into junctions you have to go to the second entrance not the first one.
