Friday night, 10pm-ish John was down the Blaue with Mathias.

I can't make the 17th unfortunately, I'm in Nottingham for mine and my mate's birthday.

ok no probs, we're there for the 6 hour race on the 31st too

In the 500?

I think 2011 will be a quiet year for me. I need to get my house sorted :rolleyes:

I've only got 3 trips planned for next year, Darren's trackday, the 24hr race and I've started training for Rad Am Ring, the 24hr cycle race round the Nordschleife.

500....... Errrrrrrr NO! It would take a week to get there

Think Darrens trackday will be my target and can't wait!!!!

I'm sure you'll be there more than 3 times Mark - probably closer to 33 times!

My trip last week was pretty crap. Darren is giving me a lift out in a couple of weeks so I can fix it and bring it home. That will probably be me done for 2010. I've only managed 135 and a 1/4 laps so this year, my worst year for a while

Very nice photos and by the sounds of it a very enjoyable time too :thumbup:

Hope the crap trip didn't result in the 1/4 lap???

ONLY 135 laps

Was superb and I would recommend a Destination Nurburgring day to all who want to enjoy the Ring at its best!

Still haven't got round to printing any of the pictures.....

Some noob crashed at Schwedenkreuz. He kicked up a load of stones and punctured my radiator. I left on the back of the big yellow taxi. I had hoped for a 40 lap trip but managed 3 and a 1/4 laps.

Awesome pics mate, I've been tempted to get some of them wheels for my NHB FN2

How did the car feel out there on the track?

Just wondering what springs/coilovers you have on? The eibachs 35mm?

Thanks

Ah - not a great trip then! Still at least its only a radiator and the noob didn't take you off with him!

Hope that big yellow taxi ride wasn't expensive....

The SG40 wheels really suit it in my opinion and look great on the red cars.

Felt great - especially once the Advan's got some heat into them. Out-lap was used to warm them up followed by 2 more laps with them well and truly in the sticky zone

Was more than happy with the FN2 over the weekend with a great journey there and back and well pleased with its performance on the circuit. I'm currently running standard shocks with our EIBACH springs and the fast road geometry set up on the front and rear.

Did have the KW Variant 3 coil-overs fitted a while back which were great but removed them to a heavily pregnant wife at the time who felt sick on every journey out in the FN2! In fairness they were probably an overkill for 99% of the cars use which is driving to work and back!
