Short notice i know. Ill be leaving ramstein at 0700.

ezeedee · 07-22-2012, 11:10 AM

Well it was fun, weather was nice, it was pretty packed as a side effect though.

I did go off in that one turn, the one everyone warned me about, the sharp left. drove all up in the grass. no damage to the car, but a bruised ego.

Thats a good corner to just sit at and watch people. Good to hear your car is safe

Was this Adenauer Forst? A lot of people run off there just search for it on you tube. I wish I could have gone but had to work all weekend.

I ran off at that same spot when I ran it the first time in my E30.

Which turn are you guys talking about? Is it around 9 km mark? At the lower right of this post card: just before Wehrseifen.

The track looks like it goes to the right as you are climbing its acent, then just as it peaks, the road goes LEFT sharply and then sharply to the right... and the camber and road drops out from under you.

I think only another visit can cure you! I hope we can all meet up for Justin's B-day in two weeks @'Ring!

Mr Kleen · 07-23-2012, 10:53 AM

I ended up on the high curb there on my first lap.

I'm almost glad I don't live closer: I'd have a track-only car and a season pass...
