After watching your helmet cam (oh er LOL), I'm now suffering from motion sickness . Great laps and WTF did that Alfa driver think he was doing - what a .
I had a similar incident with the guy in the silver Mazda MX5 with obvious previous damage from driving like an idiot. We over took him just before Flugplatz and he grabbed on to the back of us (which wasn't a problem), but when I slowed down to be courteous about not pushing other cars out of the way through Schwedenkreuz (overtaking by consent), he came barrelling up behind us flashing his lights. As soon as the car in front moved over, we pulled away from him, only for the same thing to happen again through Flugplatz. Having carried a bit more speed through there than I had (due to me slowing down for cars, where he was able to maintain his speed by following me through the gap), he then dived up the inside of me coming through Adenau Forst - it was only the fact that I caught sight of him just before I was about to turn into the left hand part of those corners that I prevented him from T-boning me .

Great pics!
Who's car is this? Would love to know the wheel specs and tyres, as well as suspension/spacer setup. I know they are BBS E88
