yeah… pretty safe to say it was the most ridiculous thing ive ever seen.

more 997 gt3 rs’ than i could shake a stick at  
rs4’s galore  
a couple r33 gt-r’s  
an r32 gt-r  
a brand new e92 m3 (with the badges still covered)  
an e46 m3 CSL from UAE

I drove the ring in an Alfa 75… old pos but it’s rwd and light as fuck (2200lbs, with about 150bhp). it was fully stripped and caged, with harnesses.

I spent 6.5 hours total at the nordschleife… prolly did about 10 laps or so (~220km). Only the first lap was in the dry. At the end of my first lap, the track closed because a biker went down and broke his leg. The medivac helicopter had to be called in and the track was shut down for about 45 minutes. After that, it started pouring.  
I managed to keep it out of the armco in the soaking wet so, overall, it was a good day.

Go figure… my CF card got corrupted so all my pics from the day got erased. Luckily my friend who was with me had a cellphone camera and took lots of pics.

pics here…

Wow, even from the pics you can tell there were so many sweet cars it’s ridiculous!

I especially like that older GT2 and the other 911’s, the new red M3, the Viper, STi and the Ferrari 355…must’ve been a nice experience!

How well did you know the course beforehand? Hit any surprise sudden bends and almost lose it or did you take it pretty easy etc?

lol Osad said he was at his place practicing on the Sexbox360 before he left…

And I have to say Mike, I’m jealous as shit for you getting to drive the 'ring. It’s been on my list of things to do before I die since I was about 5 years old.

WOW…Ive been wanting to go for years but this just makes me want it so much more!

You should keep your corrupted card and have it recovered, it usually isnt too expensive at VISTEK. Those pictures must be worth something to you.

Were you able to rent cars there or whats the deal?

PS- Grab a German S14 rear bumper and stuff it in your suitcase. 🙂 They are worth a pretty penny over here.

It would be nice to get a Euro spec S14’s rear glass with the wiper and all… Waxing, and water repelants only work so well…
