Nurburgring 24 Oct.

Elsabor67 · 03-25-2010, 04:54 PM

KW does some excellent products. I rode in the race prepped Mini from Schaefer clubsport and he had the KW clubsports on it. Awesome to say the least and a friend of mine with an E46 ///M3 has the Variant II's. That is what I want....when 1. the funds are there and 2...."the commanderette(wife)" approves.

I am going this sunday and hopefully the weather holds since it calls for rain again (fail.) so if you want to meet out there let me know

BB, will cash be ok for the tires? i'll shoot you a pm this weekend to see when we can meet to do the exchange.

Nice vid HGR, I was gonna ask you what you used for a mount. If you wanna check my vids, go on youtube adn search for "elsabor67". I have 2 from Hockenheim also.

lol, I used my headrest

It's hard to find a good mount that sets up quickly since there are no cameras allowed. I will deff check out your vids! There aren't to many one series vids on there!

I'm down for the Ring. If the rain doesn't let up, then I'll pass but it'll be the last time. Rain or not, I'll make the next open day.

Of course I'll take cash. I'll make you a better deal too. I head out to K-town every so often looking for antiques, so I could take them up in my Ody. Going to Cuijk in Holland tomorrow so it'll have to be next week sometime. Let me know if that works.

Cool. I'll shoot you my number on PM. Just give me a call when you are coming down here and we can meet. Where do you go in K-town for antiques? My wife loves to go shopping for antiques and she's always looking where to go.

I am not doing the 'ring tomorrow. It is just too wet to go there this weekend and i'm not gonna go the weekend of Good Friday. The week after that looks pretty good as they will be open almost every day.

Did any of you end up hitting the Ring over the weekend? I'm thinking about hitting up one of the next open track days.

Elsabor67 · 03-31-2010, 02:00 PM

I think no one went 'cause of the weather. I plan on going the week after Good Friday.

Rikx1M · 05-18-2010, 04:15 PM

thanks HondaGoneRogue! After I break in my 135 "M" DCT which gets here in June...I'm going to N'ring and see what kind of times a stock 135 and inexperienced driver will get..then time for a class or two and ECU, suspension/exhaust upgrades and another retiming...

HondaGoneRogue · 05-18-2010, 07:33 PM

Have fun! I'm soooo jealous.

HondaGoneRogue · 05-18-2010, 07:36 PM

Just got done watching your vids Elsabor. I wanna lap!!! You're pretty fast!

Is your 1er stick or paddles? Looks like someone showed you the turn-in and apex markings huh? I didn't learn about those until I shipped my beby lol.

Makes one HELL of a difference!

Elsabor67 · 05-26-2010, 02:35 PM

Sorry for the late response man. My 1 is a 6sp manual even though I am considering a trade in for the DCT. Still undecided. I learned the "buttons" at the 'ring from a guy I met from ramstein that drives a tan Mini by the name of Rob. He showed me all the spots and turn ins/apexes when he took me on a blazing lap in his mini.....in the rain!!!! His mini was dailed in perfectly and that is all he does on good weather and clear day when he isn't working.

If you ever come to germany again even for tdy, let me know.
