It rained when I was there, bummer. Take it easy Lar it just isn't worth the risk. That track is dangerous enough on a good day.

I'm in group 4. I'll be the white GT4 with Zoll plates. There are 2 other Californians in 4 as well.

Wow. Let me know how, if not joking.

Anyone else?
If you tell about these things in advance, you will find more familiar faces there .

I was planning a euro delivery of a family hauler (.2 Turbo) with a ring visit but it's too late to get it before the cold and rainy season starts.

2 eventful days on the Ring. Day 1 was slow traffic due to weather conditions, I think 5 minor mishaps recorded. The Russians in my group all traded their GT3 RS's for Turbos to get some traction.
Lucky me nothing happened and 1 lesson learned in the "Art of racing in the rain"
Day 2; the Ring had a dry line after 1.5 hours and we were picking up pace.
By 11 am it was open driving and i managed 4 well paced laps before lunch when the track shut down for a little while due to "technical problems" on 1 of the instructors cars.
After lunch I had first draw on a Cup car ride with Alex Mueller, just wow.



This must be 1 of the best to experience at the Nordschleife.
After that another 3 fast laps with the final lap coming to an abrupt stop due to a significant "Einschlag" of a GT2. Very unfortunate.
Last lap guesstimated lapping times were around 7.35 - 7.40.
Can't wait to come back sooner than later.
As they say the Ring is like Malaria, once it is in your system it will never leave you.

Great meeting you CanadaRS. And my, oh my... staggeringly fast times you were putting down. I did my best to hassle a few RS's in my GT4.
