Need help planning my bachelor party. Need some opinions.

Hey guys thinking of doing a Europe Trip for my bachelor party. So far I came up with a tentative schedule, so I wanted to see what everyone thought.

Anyone with past experience, or that live in Europe that can chime it would be much appreciated.

So here is the deal. Looking at going in May 2013:

Depart LAX Thursday Night (May 9th)

Arrive In Barcelona, Spain (May 10th)

Barcelona - Watch Formula 1 Qualifying (May 11th)

Barcelona - Formula 1 Race Day (May 12th)

Rent Car and Drive to Frankfurt - 12 hour ride according to Google (May 13th)

Spend the day at the Nürburgring (May 14th)

Porsche & MB Museums (May 15th)

Drive back to Barcelona - 12 hour ride (May 16th)

Barcelona to Ibeza (May 17th)

Ibeza (May 18th & 19th)

Back to LA (May 20th)


Thoughts????

Im sure others have suggestions but it looks fun

My best man isnt a car guy ... so I was kind of mapping it out

Once I get it mapped out he can work on organizing it.

Only thing i would say is the duration seems long, if you guys can all afford it with $ on hotel, expenses, drinks, etc. and afford the time off from work (this would be including your own honeymoon) - I'd say that would be one hell of a trip.

I once flew all the way from the states to Europe for a motogp race with pit access that got canceled because of overbooking. That sucked.

Monaco is expensive man, i m actually going there this Aug. when I go back for the bachelor party I would prefer to go somewhere new, and like I said I'm looking to do more automotive related stuff, between Ibiza and Barcelona that should be more then enough club / girl stuff.
