Thanks for sharing - I was most impressed with your "quite" hands. Steering input was not overly done as I have seen on some vids. You are blessed with a fine car and the place to drive it. I am jealous.

Thanks for the input!
Yes, some of the "minor points" I probably already know, like that the at Adenauer Forst and that I don't use all road at the exit of Bergwerk. As I said I didn't drive this lap with any intention to break a new lap record..
But if you want you are definitely welcome to coment more on my "minor points"..

Thanks!!
But I'm not sure I understand what you mean with ""quite" hands"



BTW:
Another interesting event I attended on two weeks ago at a Swedish track..

Formula Renault 2,0:
Chassie: Carbon-fibre Monocoque, carbon bodywork
Engine: 2,0L Renault engine with 220hk (related to Clio Renault Sport 2.0 16V)
Acceleration: 0-100km/h på 2,3 sec
Top speed: 270 km/h
Transmission: Sequentially controlled, dog-clutch box with 6 forward gears, changeable ratios, self-locking differential
Tyres: Michelin
Fuel tank : 38 litres
Weight: 490 kg

This was definitely mindblowing and something I hope to do again.

He means "quiet" hands.. It means you make subtle, slow, controlled movements, rather than having your hands and arm thrashing around the place all out of control...

A warning! It's very very addictive..
BTG? "Bridge to gantry"..
It means the distans between Antoniusbrücke (~0,5km from start) and the gantry (~20km from start) around Döttinger Höhe.

Talking

How about 10 Porsches on the bridge between Sweden and Denmark, "Öresundsbron", more than 4000hp?

ahardm3 is on a distinguished road
I just took a trip in early October to the Ring we rented a 330i and met a american who races and got a ride in a 997 gt3 cup car during a practice session and tour the Manthey Shop. It was a ride of a lifetime!
