I always did, i think you are talking about the up hill back straightish, that was close, sorry! I was on ps2s on saturday, so was a little slow and not that confident. But put the R888s on sunday, and managed an 8:30ish for my 24th/last lap at the ring. I know I can push it more on some of the corners, but my moto all weekend was, "dont crash, dont crash, dont crash" lol

I have to say, what an awesome track, once you know where you are going and you grow some balls to take some of them corners without braking! I dont think I want to do any uk trackdays anymore, just the ring!

Shame about the grey M3 with the big yellow ring logo on the side, crashed just before it started raining on sunday

The grey is a friend of mine! And we where together on track with my csl!!!
But the grey is a normal E46 M3!!!

Don't U worry about me just make sure U watch your mirrors like a hawk next time U're out @ the RING and let others (who know where they are going and are who are much faster then U) through, THANK U please

That was some appoling driving you displayed on Saturday, lucking etiquette and common courtesy Not only did U hold Alex K up but also U held me and Richard (Flatout) too, all on the same lap DOH !!! And there was me, thinking U were a safe pair of hands on Track after seeing some decent Track discipline from U @ Snetterton previously

Mate, I had slow cars in front of me, holding me up and they werent letting me pass. Well, richard knows about not letting people pass on track on purpose.....What was his moto "I dont let no one pass me on track".

... not when I was behind U though, trough at least 3 bends plus U had nothing to your right where U should have moved over to
When I eventully muscled my way pass, U didn't bother easing off your throttle either Red miss was clearly visible from where I was sitting
I can't speak for everything Richard does but I do know for a fact he lets FASTER cars pass @ the Ring.

Easy with the smilies I must of eased off the throttle, or else how would you of passed me. Remind me where you passed me again? Wasnt it on the back up hill straight?

Anyways, I had a female passenger in the car, i didnt wanna look too lame

... here come the excuses
I don't remeber where I overtook U, it's not really the point. U were seriously holding everyone up that's the point.
Local knowledge is KING and having a faster, real-deal CSL is how I passed U
I had a passenger with me too and we were reading the weekend papers while waiting for U to make the right move

I guess when a female passenger enters your car, common sense leaves.
As a start, your car is no way faster than a CSL, don't forget that.
Also, you didn't ease off AT ALL and you were struggling to go faster.
The back-end of your car was very nervous, which clearly showed that you were driving very nervous trying to 'get away'.
If you are running PS2s, it's understandable but move to the side because we are running semi slicks.
All these seem ok when you are trying to prove something (to yourself or someone else) but when nasty accidents happen it's really bad.

I and many others visit this place to have fun and don't have to prove anything.
I personally go full to the right and slow down when a faster car is coming. In that way he is not annoyed, I am not annoyed (I can continue my lap as soon as he overtakes me) and everybody is happy.
