Default Hockenheimring pics

Here are a few shapshots I was able to take of the P Sport Driving School held in Hockenheim. It was a very aggressive school...all of the cars the instructors drove were owned by Porsche, so they drove the crap out of them. I was able to rent a Cayman S for the 2 day event and found out what a rev limiter and abs braking system really was.

Just kidding...here are the ones from the museum, factory and the track days. I had a blast! BTW those karts go like 60mph and that is a professional track in Sens France.

Thanks guys...it was a lot of fun. My wife's family lives in France, so, not having to pay for a hotel allows for many other activities!! I'll definitely try to hit the "ring" next trip. They do the school there as well. Kudo's to the Germans!!! Great school! Most everyone speaks english there also. It's an easy country for people from an english origin to travel and enjoy.

Thanks for the pix, looks like a nice vacation. Any impressions of the Cayman S after 2 days on the track?

I really enjoyed it. It could be stiffer and lowered a bit. The power was surprising. I'm a fairly new track addict and I could stay close to my instructor that was in a regular Cayman. Had to be the extra power. Certainly wasn't my mad skills. Overall it was a great track car in my opinion.
