DRIVER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES FROM `THE FLYING DUTCHMAN`

Ringmeister and `flying Dutchman,` Jaco Velders - with over 7,000 laps of experience on the `Green Hell` - is offering YOU the chance to get expert 1-2-1 tuition and/or race at the world`s most incredible racing circuit, the Nurburgring Nordschleife, in one of the most exciting racing series in Europe, the VLN (or RCN), through www.jacos-paddock.com

Jaco`s bespoke driver training programs or racing development packages cover everything - from providing, setting-up and supporting race-prepped BMWs, `Ring training, airport transfers, accommodation, licence and administration; even showing you where to go for a great meal in the glorious Eifel region.

Jaco says: "We are a `one-stop shop` for groups of people wishing to take their driving experience to the next level - on the best 15.8 miles (combined GP circuit & Nordschleife `North Loop`) - on the planet.
"All you have to do is book us at http://www.jacos-paddock.com and we take care of everything, allowing you to relax and enjoy the process. You simply book your flight to Cologne on a Thursday; we will pick you up, make sure you are brought safely to the booked (by us) hotel and have a good night`s sleep, ready for action.

The format of the race meets is simple, and all sorted by Jaco: in the morning, a shuttle will bring you to the track for the briefing, before you get your first opportunity to drive around the epic ,12.9-mile Nordschleife. . . a perfect chance to take your sponsors round for a `hot lap.` Then, normally between 16:00 and 18:00 hours, you will have time to get used to the race car, in practice. After this training, the shuttle will bring you back to the hotel, for an enjoyable night.

On Saturday morning, the shuttle will pick you up from the hotel again, and we will guide you to the drivers` briefing, done by the organiser, followed by a briefing done by Jaco, to make sure that you are fully prepped, like the cars.

Then, it`s time for the serious stuff! From 9:30am until 11:00, it`s qualifying for the race, with all 220 cars on track doing their thing. After this session, at 12:00, the VLN race begins; now the best track in the world is yours, for the next four to six hours. Enjoy!

Jaco adds: "During the race, my team of 10 highly-skilled race experienced mechanics will be on hand to help you through the race; changing wheels, refueling, sorting driver changes, etc. We take care of everything,so that you can concentrate on having fun, and racing well.

Meantime, in the box, or in the tent, we will provide hospitality for you, your friends/family and sponsors; with food and drinks at your disposal, served by our catering staff. Needless to say, during the whole race event, we will keep you and your group well informed about the status of the car and the other drivers in the race."

Jaco`s Paddock offers a variety of BMW race cars - from the E30 318iS, to the E36 325i and on to the E46 M3 - for rental and bespoke package deals for his clientele. He says: "We look forward to helping you live the dream. . . follow in the footsteps of the greats, like Bell, Bellof, Manthey, Schmitz, etc- and race on the Nordschleife, while Jaco`s Paddock takes care of everything."

Not a racer? No problem. Jaco`s Paddock caters exclusively for Nurburgring track day novices to circuit hounds - offering an exciting range of `Ring experience driver training packages to suit various skill levels. And Jaco caters for everyone, from group bookings (Stag-do packages a speciality), to individual driver development programs, all with the `flying Dutchman`s` expert 1-2-1 training - either using your own vehicle, or, better still, one of the brilliant BMW fleet at Jaco`s Paddock.

New for 2009 is Jaco`s latest `Ring-prepped track and race weapon - the legendary, 3.2-litre, 343bhp E46 M3. "We are very excited to have the next line of evolution BMWs on our fleet, having already got the purist`s choice E30, the brilliant E36 325i race car and now the classic drivers` car, the E46 M3. It is a superb racing and training tool - ideal to demolish the Green Hell in."

NB: A German National A Race Licence is required before you can race in the VLN, which Jaco`s Paddock will arrange on a bespoke basis.
