Hmmm...so what do we have here?
Something all men dream about. A couple of really nice sportscars. an empty airfield and the will to burn rubber.


RUF R Turbo 550 and Lamborghini Gallardo

Porsche GT2 and BMW M3 CSL



The Gallardo is staring to show some miles

Öhlins is such a nice thing to have!


Let's play!

Full speed towards the photographer (that's me!) :bigeyes:

BMW M3 CSL

The Gallardo had new tires, but why not have a little bit of fun anyway?

**** HAPPENS! (there was no permanent damage to the car, but why hit the only obstacle on the whole strip?)

It looks worse than it is. I guess the Ohlins saved him

The lip was back in place in 30 seconds.

But it was fun that he hit the only obstacle on the whole runway

His comment was "I was trying to go past and around it"
