Thanks.
I'm always surprised by the number of people into the Nürburgring's pits. |
^Up to 6 cars per box.

Time for the first race of the year. I hope our new car makes it thru technical inspection.
Saturday 12.00+16.00 CET |
We need a VLN update |
Completely agree! |
This looks a lot like living. :thumbup: |
Just on my way to the airport.
In short: very foggy morning which delayed the qualification and the race itself was shortened a bit. Dry and good conditions. We where 21 cars In the very competitive V4 class. We ended up in 10th place which surprised us. Such a good result will probably not happen again. :) Gotta go to FRA |
That’s a great result for the first race in the new car! Congrats to you and the team! |
Congratulations to the whole team!

From the race, driver is OK what I've heard.

Back home after a let down from Scandinavian Airlines. They thought is was better for me to sleep on Clarion Hotel on Arlanda Airport than home in bed.
We did a pretty good race for our standards. Avoided possible bad situations on track. Unfortunately the hood came loose on the first lap which costed us about 2:45 min. This was bad as we where on a one stop strategy and most of our competitors on a two stop. I had a small incident when a GT86 thought he would improve my front right fender even though I gave him a lot space - I think :) We qualified as #157 of 169 cars in total. We ended up as #118 in total and 10th in class. :jumper: https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...c64fffba46.png |
Random picts from the Friday before race.
https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...0cba8ad3b5.jpg Friday had wonderful weather 16-17°C(!) Saturday: Cold and foggy. https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...77001966ee.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...bc5899bb7a.jpg New for this yea in VLN is that we have a button on the car where we select which is the current driver. We also must have a data logger so that race director can extract data from us in case of a protest. The cell phone is used for contact with the team. It is connected to a box over Bluetooth and the box is connected to my helmet headset. A rather cost effective solution for smaller teams. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...3c98c77644.jpg Glickenhaus https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...47acbde310.jpg Glickenhaus https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...789d07278b.jpg Glickenhaus https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...3e58cdde8a.jpg Drivers briefing #1, there is two more. 170 cars, 2-3 drivers gives 400-500 drivers. |
