Nurburgring Trackday
Finally got some time now i'm back at work. Seems like so long ago!
Anyway I headed back to the UK (I live in California currently) ten days before the scheduled Ringmeisters Prime DN trackday. Lots to do. Great to see it again... New wheel/tyre combo 10x18 and 265 Trofeos Then it went for clutch, KWs, alignment, oils, brakes and so on. Cannot find the in progress pics. Anyway, BIG bill paid and on we went... Onto the train to France. This was en route somewhere in Europe... Obligatory team photo... 120 odd cars booked on, very tasty machinery! It was one of the hottest couple of days in history over there and the car was worked hard. Had to run with AC off to keep temps sensible! Did 36 laps all in and puts my total to about 50. Recorded a few laps and then missed out on some good tussles as the camera was in another car :facepalm: quickest timed BTG lap after being stitched together due to issues was 7.56. Probably went quicker, who knows. I was happy under 8. https://youtu.be/UN9PEpQdsBs Some pro pics, all part of the trackday price. All in all a great trip. 1500 miles in 4 days and a lot of petrol but many many smiles. Roll on the next one... |
