Peter absolutely spectacular build !!

The only challenge now, how the heck do you top it !!

How about running with windows up ? Do you miss noise input for reaction ? Does the non turbulent

cabin settle things ? Big Congrats and enjoy the fruits of your planning

Ok, silver & purple RS owners, those with stripped builds, drive the crap out of them, get patina, use them up, I'm your buyer :-) I like abused RS.
Purple cars are the best!

Love the Pics Trakcar!!!

My favorite is the car in the Karousel. Super amazing!

That Karousel is a wicked combination of extreme confidence that comes from the high bank angle, together with extreme terror of what will happen if your wheels go off. Man those are really cool pictures.

No, worlds slowest upload speed at this crappy hotel. Was warned but with the DTM races tomorrow it was slim pickings we have nice view and spectacle on our "off day". I'm trying to upload a Youtube of my last lap, the least slow one of 8:25 BTG getting schooled by Dr Jupeman in the red GT3 and Nur93 in the white GT4. I have a lot to learn new car, a donky can do 8:25 in this car.

If you'd keep driving in front and behind me your tires would still be new :-)

Windows up AC of 64F is heaven.
Picked up my van and trailer today, dropped off RS made sure the RS gets on and off OK etc.
Some, stuff got stuck at Customs so the first cracks are appearing in our plans, but its an adventure for sure. Specially happy that Mrs TRAKCAR was able to ride with me all day.

Normally you use just a few curbs on the Ring.

I might have run over something but I'm not sure.

I am so glad you went with purple! After seeing the Ring' photos it looks great.

Also, 10 points for wifey hanging on for the ride around the track!

Hey Peter was wondering if the front license plate mount has room for a clamp for a Go Pro? Also does it come off pretty easy? I have a track day that requires tow hooks and wondered if it was easy to remove Thanks buddy and enjoy , enjoy enjoy! I'll post some pics when my Vader mobile is delivered!

It's easy to screw the plate in and out. Mounts like a tow hook, not sure if you can still add a GOPro..

It was foggy and wet this AM but now its nice.
CUP race with Nordschleiffe and the Eifelburg in the background from balcony...
