Road Tours History
Circuit Days Road Tours started out when Chris and a few friends decided to drive to the Nurburgring in 2004. Following a superb 12 car trip, it was decided that a similar event, along with a trip to the Alps, be put on the Circuit Days website for 2005. The Nurburgring 700 and Alpine Adventure were thus born. Over 60 road tours have been successfully organised and completed by Circuit Days since, with up to 80 cars participating in some instances.
