One hell of a tow truck, got to love the Germans.

Sorry to hear about the mechanical issues.

It turned to be the "Unlucky Swedes Day" today.

3 cars with Swedes started today and al DNF'd in one way or another.

The last one was a Cayman that crashed in Metzgesfeldt (fast downhill left-hander) and finally catched fire. Driver is OK.


So my bad luck was not so bad after all.

Sorry to hear about all the bad luck. Nice to hear that you’re still in a good mood.
Metzgesfeldt must have hurt. It’s so fast and the grass won’t slow you down much before the tire wall?
Scary corner indeed.

What an amazing place for car enthusiasts... miss just hanging out at Brunnchen watching the manufacturer cars test, bet a race is even better. Looks a bit more crowded

What is this from? Which car?

Look for my friends in the #252 BMW M235iR sponsored by Optima Batteries. Been racing with all the guys in the car for years.

It is from the BMW M3 E46 I drive in RCN.

Sure it is #252? Can't find it: Found a M235 with four US guys in, maybe it is that car?

Coincident: This is THE picture of last years winner of the N24. It is in the official programs, websites

The second one was taken by yours truly: It seems to be taken in very much the same millisecond
You see the photographer to the right.

This also answers the questions: "Who photographs the photographer."

Yes, a lot of folks in the woods but all the infrastructure works great. No problems with lines and other irritating things.
