Kobalt: "Then it is a busy week at the Ring: Which ends with the 24H race and all the craziness in the Eifel woods and mountains with the 24H Party People."
I still laugh when i think of our 24H trip a few years back. The sheer ingenuity of enthusiast i saw in the woods + beer gardens that rose out of nowhere was staggering. Hats off to the Germans, makes the rest of the partying world look like amateurs
I'm about the same.
You did break it in as I recall, me a little less so.
100CL of oil in 3000 miles and 10 track days just to experiment.
Did 3 days after that and another couple thousand miles and no oil use at all.
Gets better with age.
no track days, 7500km done so far on the road, careful reading in until 1000km and still about 3/4 of a liter of oil per 1000km.
normal according to porsche......the PC keeps giving me free oil supplies::))

The year after, 1971 21-24 of August it was time for Marathon de la Route again.
This time 96 hours (!!!). Because of reconstructions "only" Nordschleife was driven.
16 of 39 teams made it all the way and the winners was Henry / Thérier / Nusbaumer in Alpine Renault (461 laps).
Second place took Hennerici / Kuhl / Hennerici (BMW 2002 TI / 453 laps)
Heinz Hennerici was a one armed racing driver. He lost the arm in World War II.
Hennerici was a smoker: So he had packs of cigarettes taped to the dash board and when coming out on the long straight, Döttinge Höhe, he lit a cigarette. If he finished the cigarette before entering the Südschleife he knew he's been driving too slow
The RS looked so sad today. No play, just work. On the outside looking in: To the right in the pictures you see the happy cars that got to play at the Trackday. RS was not allowed because trakday was full.
