You go to the Ring sometimes?

Was a great day again today, a lot of CSL's present!

Weather got better than expected.
Thinking of changing the suspension now though. Hitting full compression in Fuchsrohre is OK, but not in 7-8 places. KW Clubsport seems a good choice as it offers settings for the high and low speed range independently of one another.
By the way - brakes are fine! Perhaps I'm not pushing it that hard, but stock brakefluids and lines do the job. Of course, Nordschleife is pretty soft on brakes, so that might change on other tracks. But for now, I'd better spent that valuable cash in upgrading my suspension.

Sitting on KW Competition since a few weeks - much better and more potential to explore.
Had a good trackday at NS today, full laps with best currently at 08:31.

Tricky stuff though untill about late noon, damp sections making it hard to asses some corners. Great, great fun though! What a car, what a place

Very nice - I know that view well

Enjoy the KWs at the Ring - they are very good

Sunday was bloody foggy, at 1°C it was certainly quite exciting on cups that are a bit worn!

Lovely Pics there

Happy dayzzz

A bit of news on the CSL. I ditched the KW Comp...on the Nordschleife it was great, but on public roads I just couldn't find a setting I could live with. Since my usage is about 80/20 road/track, I went back to stock - nothing to be sad for since the stock suspension is quite brilliant. Originally I went for the KW's as I was hitting full compression in some places on the NS so I'll lose some time there but gain fun back on the road.

I'm also considering losing the Wiechers cage. Most of the time I use the Alpina when I take my wife & daughter along, but sometimes I'd rather use the CSL instead. Depends a bit on the roads of course.
Only sad thing is that I'll lose a bit of sound and rawness as well, putting the rear seat and all that back in there, but I guess I'll have to live with that.

Still love this car so much. You immediately feel that you're sitting in something special, the sound is sublime and the handling is nothing short of fantastic. RWD doesn't get any better than this!
