Hi Ben.

Trust you got back in one piece, always the most important part of a Ring trip.

Great photos as always, however I would like to clarify that my porker is of the cheating "turbo" 4wd gismology line as opposed to the thoroughbread lightweight blah, blah, blah (sounding like Domster rambling on about 964 RS ) "GT3" line.

Can't imagine the PHer I met who owned the Red Ferrari is happy about being called a poser, but I suppose it does go with the marque......

See you at Pistonfest.

regards

Yep - ALWAYS the important bit!

I'll take your word for it... but whatever, it looks great!

Ha - it does wind 'em up, doesn't it

Cheers, but it's a cr*p camera and I think that will be it's last outing.

PikeyCam #3 is shortly to be aquired

Ben, if you've done an 8'52 BTG I can't see that you should have had a problem with Christer's approach to the Fuchsrohre compression.

Ah...

That vid was taken Sat morning. Before the weekend I was terrified of the Fuschrohre. The 8.52 was Sun eve - about 40 laps (and nice new brakes!) later... and I was in driving / in control!

You'll find now I'm only frightened of passengering round Schwedenkreuz (after a 120mph spin when he took a bike line in a car... in the wet!) !!

Sorry - should clarify, "he" above wasn't Christer, but another ringer bloke!

PS: Ben, Christer was right, you really are a Squealer

Yeahh, well...
About the 348 picture:
To my defense I have to say that I did TWO laps.
Actually I couldn´t do more since my car would have gotten too dirty then and think of the stone chips!

I have a solution to that - just before you get home, drive it into a Lithuanian hand wash centre and for a tenner - BINGO! You have a car as clean as new (before you even reach your home!).

Mind you, do you have Hand car wash centre's staffed by enthusiastic Lithuanians in Germany? We have loads here and they're great for lazy people like me!

Erm, there was just one pic of her, but cheers for that, I'm off to have a look now

Who is Rachel by the way?
