Nurburgring this weekend
 

Had a cracking (but very very wet) weekend over there with Pistenclub and RMA.

Highlight of the weekend was 2 laps being chased by / chasing a black CSL with two charming Italian gents on board - one was Mauro, didnt catch the other gents name - are you guys members here?

Lowpoint of the weekend was watching a mate properly re-arrange the armco with a brand new gen2 GT3. Uninsured.

And on the subject of GT3's - drove a different GT3 yesterday - still prefer the CSL...

Cuda

Hi Cuda, glad you had a good weekend. Shame about the weather. I was there Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and had an awesome time. Weather was very respectable. Had a couple of 25+lap days, no traffic, no waiting. :smokin: My absolute favourite time of year at Ring.;)

kept that very quiet! :thumbs:

Nice one Cuda:supz:

There for a quiet week with a couple of mates. Almost an annual tradition now. It's nice to do some time there without all the usual chaos.;) Car park is almost empty all day.:thumbs:

.............Better line up at the barrier......

................Oh, that was quick! For the 25th time.:whistle::smokin:

Looks like it used too in 04/05, with no waiting and clearish laps :smt055

Awesome Alex, might have to consider this for next year as a option outside of the private days ;)

You still on your cups or swapped back to the 2's

I think Alex's silver wheels are his road tyres ;)

Yeah, Robs got it.

Silver wheels = pussy rubber

Black wheels = mans rubber

Wish I had Cups on for Thursday/Friday. Fookin' glad I didn't on the way home! Biblical rain on Saturday.:bigcry:

Hello Cuda,
I am Carlo, the other italian guy with the black CSL. A very nice weekend.

The two laps? Fantastic, the best of the weekend.
When we finished, my face was like this :smt003.

It was a pleasure to meet you.

hope to see you soon at the Ring

Lucky so and so......:thumbs:

I gave up going over in November, always seemed to get caught with rain and snow a good few times.

It was pure heaven mate. You take a gamble on the weather but I've hit lucky the last two years.;)

Shame me and Dazza didn't last year :bigcry:

Same here :bigcry: after getting caught in a blizzard few years ago :banghead:
Indeed "Lucky so & sos ... :beer:
I miss the Ring already and there's still six whole months to go :( before the new 2011 season begins :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry:

Should have stayed on mate. Next day was stunning.;)

Ditto... :smt009

Don't remind me! :banghead:

November Ring trip
 

Now that my Intrax is fixed and car geoed, I may get myself down there for one last week-end, will trailer the car down so will have large selection of rubber ! And if its pisses it down, I will lap in the fookin Disco and leave the CSL on tut trailer ! And if anything goes fookin wrong during a lap in the Disco I think it will be a sharp exit through the woods job ! ... 2 and 3/4 tonne hitting the Armco WILL hurt the wallet !:hahaha:

Naaa ... 2 and a 3/4 ton Disco will just leave a neat exit hole in the Armco and a set of tyre tracks in Ze woods for Ze Germans to follow ;) :hahaha:
When are you planning of going ? I might tag along :beer: in my 530d with a spare set of winter wheels & tyres :whistle:

not thought about a date yet Matt, need to fit it in around GF's birthday on 22nd Nov,work, Rugby, shooting and Masonry .... apart from which ..the diary is empty !:hahaha:

:hahaha: Sounds like your diary is wide open mate ;) The weekend befor 22nd should be considered :whistle:
Keep me posted but lets try and avoid a Ring trip mid December, shall we :smt037

Hey Carlo - good to see you - was a cracking couple of laps - and there was two of you in the car! You guys did the right thing getting a truck to take the car down there - i hate the drive back! who was that old dude with the Gallardo CSL, sorry Supaleggera? Fab car / noise and he was very quick which is rare to see in cars like that...

Tim

Sounds good - those were public days?

Yes. November weekdays are very quiet. Just have to get lucky with the weather.:thumbs: Got great value out of my JK.
