I think Loz's highlight was the Brucey bonus on Sunday night.

Whereabouts and which room did you stay in? I want to avoid it when I'm there this weekend

Anyone match the whale choking speed of the SDI? Sub-9 BTG. Or the old 1.4 at 8.32?

40 laps ain't bad, my "record" for a day is 32 laps and for a weekend like yours is 68

Not sure when I'll be going over again, prob mid-end Oct.

Glad you all got back OK and had a good time

**mannyo** · 23-08-2006, 06:16

Nice pictures Mark.

Jon,
When you do go again do you fancy take a standard Red Octavia and it's driver with you. Obviously we share the car.

Certainly!

I'll hopefully be going later this year and will be taking a certain SMART roadster along and either mine or a BMW

You'd be more than welcome to join myself and knobcheese

Hi Folks ; )

Good to see and read that you all have enjoyed the trip and you all made
it home safe

This Ring trip was bigger as the last years one but I bet it will be smaller
than the next one ... I still can´t wait to see you all again.

It was a big pleasure to meet you all and to see the ones again, which I
already got to know.

Martin and I have been happy, that the toolboxes have spent the weekend
in our cars and have not to been used one single time ..
( As well I had the feeling, that Martin was a bit bored with no problem to
solve

)

Thanks to the ones who took me around and introduced me to really lovely
cars.. Special thanks to Dave and Max..

If anyone wants to see the place, Dave has mostly been seen :

WrightyRS · 23-08-2006, 10:42

I'm going over on the 1st-3rd October(sunday-tuesday) if anyone is up for it.

And as Carsten said i'm sure the next years trip will be even bigger!!!

I'm waiting for the everyone to start volunteering me to organise it!!!

**VRStu** · 23-08-2006, 10:50

I'm hearing a rumour that someone may have left their car over there - Anyone know any more?

WrightyRS · 23-08-2006, 10:52

Yes your right,

Sean's car was left over there due a problem with his thermostat.
He got a lift back to the UK with Andy_CCR.
Although they got stuck because of the tunnel and didn't get home until 3am(to Winchester area).

I think the AA are going to be flying him out to collect it.

**VRStu** · 23-08-2006, 10:54

Ahh - yep that's kinda what I heard.

Do you reckon he will sneak in a few extra laps when it's fixed...

**VRStu** · 23-08-2006, 11:02

Just got a text from him, Head Gasket, Water Pump and Thermostat.

Ouch.

WrightyRS · 23-08-2006, 11:05

Didn't realise it was that bad,

well if i was going back i'd get a few laps in no question.

So Beretta, when are you going to be allowed to go then?

I was cracking out some 9 minute laps Jon, and I reckon if I take my set of extra big balls with me next time, I could be around the 8 + 1/2 minute mark. I still have alot to learn about myself, my car, and the track yet.

Damn it's so addictive......is it next year yet?
