Bad picture, sorry:

According to Manthey adds downforce in front and in the rear above approx 130kmh. Have not had chance to really test it because of bad weather.

Other guy said that he noticed a total different water spray from his car after putting the diffuser on.

Thanks, pictures are fine!
Does that diffuser from the R fits to RS without any modification?

Yes, it took 5 min. Remove the metal under tray then bolt on diffuser.

does the diffusor create equal downforce front and rear? otherwise you would need to balance in the front be adding more downforce i suppose...putting on flics for example

According to Manthey: The grip on the front is already too good on the RS: The diffuser will balance out that.

More noticeable on Hockenheim as it is a rather even track compared to Nordschleife.

Also upgrading the suspension so the car can be lowered will improve the diffusers efficiency. The HH car was lowered 15 mm.

You need to upgrade if you want to run the car lower in NS because of the rubbing issues.

The day before this picture was taken I said to my friends: "A car you never see on Nordschleife is Tesla."

Proved wrong 12 Hours later.

I forgot to ask how many laps they could do.

Did the Scuderia Hanseat spring course. The most wet Scuderia so far.

Section training: Bellof-S to Exit Galgenkopf

AMG Driving Academy was there with a lot of great drivers, Bernd Schneider, Bernd Mayländer etc and besides trying to make us go fast we've got to compete in a slalom competition with the A 45 AMG.

The profis did a baseline laptime in wet which was 46 seconds. Most of us could't do that in the dry

The GT3 was supposed to go back home but the Audi RingExpress had to go back empty. The 997 GT3 begs to be driven more



Found this Saab Cousin on the way, dressed up for work:

Kenny Bräck in McLaren P1 GTR LM

He did a ring attack early morning on the 1st of May.

Tidbit: He goes out on the track with cold tires and about 4°C. He drive from the Tourist entrance to T13. When at T13 the tires are warm enough for full attack. (The startline is at T13).
