Talking Yet another track day at the Ring

Destination Nurburgring Event track day, giving a 928 curious fellow a passenger ride

My right indicator gets a lot of use, but the car is working properly, I was short shifting at 5k because I'd only just blown the engine in my Cerbera here a couple of months earlier

Before the lap he explained that his wife probably wouldn't let him get a 928, after the lap it seemed entirely possible that he might get one anyway

Immediately before the track days I'd replaced the oil cooler, rear suspension parts, and the radiator failed on the way to Germany

In between the track days I'd had to replace the clutch master seals, hence my bite point excuses

The brake pads were near end of life, and the front wheel bearings were slightly over tightened to remove some of the inevitable play, and one of my more experienced passengers could feel that there was some minor issue

Nevertheless the car has never felt so good on track
