Yes I found a couple of shots of my car... (if you go to my homepage, select "Nürburgring" and then scroll all the way down, there are the new pictures)

I e-mailed you the large versions of the image(s).

Hi guys

Just wanted to let you know, that I'll be on the Ring next Wednesday and Thursday, with our local Porsche club. We will drive there from Stockholm, appr. 1500 km. Thats my first time as well and I don't even play computer games. But as I have no plans even to attempt going fast with my stationwagon, my only concern is not to be too much on the way of faster drivers.

Can you advice, if I should buy 8 lap ticket or will there be enough time for 15 laps, considering that each day there is 2 h. 15 min. driving time ? Is it usually crowded during weekdays this time of the year ?

If someone will be there and see this RS6, come and say hello. Although I'm not so active member, I'm here since of the very beginning in ezboard and would be nice to see faces behind the user names.

Hey ott,


Don't worry about that, if you see faster cars coming from behind just move to the right when possible and let them pass.



Difficult to say with the ticket. If you've got bad luck and the track is closed you've thrown out money. I'd say better buy an 8-lap ticket first and if that's not enough and there's still time buy another one.

And no, normally it's not crowded at all during those 2 hour openings; it's crowded on the weekends (but Z28SS4me made his first laps there last weekend nevertheless and it wasn't so much of a problem).


That's a nice licence plate you got (on a nice car of course)!
Would love to come but doesn't look as if I have time during next week...

Ben

Next week right?

Thanks Ben !

Yes, I'll be there next week, hopefully weather will be nice !

well I'll try to be there with the newly suspensioned GTO...but if not then I'll be there in the Wife's A4 (yes, james, she gave me permission.)

Ok, if you see my RS, come to say hello. BTW, yesterday I had opportunity to drive GTO for first time. It was brand new M6 car. Felt quite a lot different compared to 4-gen.

If you want I'll lead you through a few laps...let you ride with me to learn the track.

what did you have to do

Here are another 2 pictures of our cars:

Nice shots, hm?

Ben

So, do you all still plan on going this Wednesday? If so what time? I am on leave all week and would love to see the Pedderized Goat give it a go.

I won't participate because of the new Torque Converter.

I won't but if you go remember that it's only open from 1715h to 1930h!

Ben

Didn't get to working on the suspsension yet...but I am planning on going...not sure which car is going yet either.
