Chaps, I'll just copy paste what I've just posted on 911uk.com

As Steve said, the convoy down was rather :drool: and the sound of those Challenge Stradales was just :drool: :drool: :drool: - especially when fitted with a custom-made titanium exchaust :eek: :drool: some more!

Convoy down to the ring...

Shame about the glare, reflections and strange colours. I would have taken the photos with the window down, but it would have been a bit breezy considering our brisk progress

And as much as I hate to congratulate Will (he's a bouncy tigger when he's calm ), here's a quote from 911uk

We enjoyed the company and you certainly surprised us with the speed of the Skoda's. The little yellow one shocked me

Nice to have met Colin, tfboy and Nik too. I was quite impressed by the ease with which the Skodas kept up with our rather quick convoy. :eek:

Good effort, Will

Some Ring action...

At Breidscheide

Moving in to overtake

Was that one of your group?

Very nice pics xav did you take the rather exspensive lens;).I gather by those pics you did.

Yeah, and it was left behind my passenger seat when I did some laps. Cost me at least 20 seconds around the Ring I reckon!

Cheers Chris. Yeah, I did. The ring shots were with the biggy. All convoy shots were with the cheap kit lens

Looking at mw-sportfoto.de and they charge 25 euro for a high resolution file of your car without their logo in :eek: I'm in the wrong business. When I was at Breidscheide, I had some friendly German chaps ask me which website they should go to to buy my photos. Of course, I said I'd just post on *plug* briskoda, and when I said it was a free Skoda website, they were shocked and couldn't believe it!

Have to admit that the ring is a fantastic venue to take shots - purely because apart from the automotive porn there, the scenery is beautiful

Wish i had gone but me thinks if the german police had stopped me i would have been carted of to jail.:rolleyes:its a long story.

How did the first timers find the track then. Anyone have any near misses?.

Yes! in my pants when we went out with Clarey (4 up) :eek:

Steve told me all about it

We had no trouble whatsoever on the continent this time, was fantastic

Got back to blighty and going up the M20, some copper in an octy vrs estate got on our nerves

Looked like a great trip

Nice pics too Xav

Have had a 360CS fly past through Manc Airport tunnels before, so know what you mean about the sound! Thought my eardrums were going to start bleeding :eek: :drool:

Steve

Just got back in after the overnight crossing on the ferry...

Wow this trip was amazing from start to finish!!! :D

Thanks again to Jason for organising it:thumbup: and remembering to book the great weather:thumbup:

Thanks to the Irish guys for some great entertainment, hope you don't miss Mary too much.

I can't wait for next year.

Yes! in my pants when we went out with Clarey (4 up) :eek:

You enjoyed it really, there is a pic on the mw-sportfoto site and were all smiling:D

Glad you all had a good trip, just sorry wasn't well enough to go.

I was lucky enough to blag a passenger ride around the Ring in one, absolutely fecking awesome :D:D:D:D

That lap was slightly marred by the sight of a dark green Porsche 993 Turbo spin in front of us and hit the armco broadside (very hard :(). Looking on the bright side though, it did have German plates!

How many spanks were there then? Nearly everytime one of us lot over here looked at the webcam it looked like it was closed down.

Liking the pics guys.

Glad to see everyone had a good time.

LALALALA can't see this thread :P :(

I really wish I'd pulled a sickie now :(:(
