I'm getting heavier by the minute here.
Love the food and beer. Maybe it's good it's only 5 weeks because I won't fit in the car any longer by then.

Just checked into a very nice beautiful hotel, dinner now and than go register.
Great run down from Munich today. Fun to finally run some good speed on the autobahn, right over the border we met up with Jo_ker to say a quick hello - always fun to meet Up with Rennlister. He advised me to go 19km over the speed limit so i went 50 over but only got a ticket for 24 over! Awesome you just pay cash as you go here.

Pic below cost ne 30€, a deal I say!

Who knew there were more than 2 varieties?! Why are the Torro Rosso not these other cans?

Peter, I've been enviously following this thread. My **** self is curious whether you followed the break in rpm limits, considering the amount of driving you've been doing.

Well not everything in the EU is more expensive... that would have cost at least $300 here. Agreed, 30E well spent!

I couldn't tell, but by the price is say yes.

Finally uploaded one of my faster Northschleiffe laps.
Still beginner status but at least it almost felt like a complete lap.

Not sure if you're passing through Switzerland but please do not test this theory here. They will take the car and start asking for income statements to calculate the fine!

Btw great to see Mr Purple being used to full effect and clearly it's a good 20 secs faster than any other colour! Need to start planning some proper exercise for my car although January delivery doesn't help much...

I wonder if there is any sun left in Florida.
It looks like you bring it with you where ever you go.
