We've found that if you use the OEM extended nuts that were made for the bar that the Vorshlag studs are long enough.

The BMW part number is 51-71-7-895-241.

Med or large? Can't go to ring as I'll be TDY.

Call me tomorrow to make arrangements.

Ok couple things,
1. The track opens at 0800 you want to be there at 0800-0830 before all the GT3's and such start getting there.
2. There is no point in stopping at spang to fill up, fill up before you leave ramstein and that will get you there, with plenty of gas for laps and even the drive home.
3. Stopping at spang is kind of out of the way from the direct route to the Ring from ramstein, which is A1, there are plenty of places to meet on L93. If you want to roll with me I will be leaving at around 0700 so I can get my laps in before it gets crowded.

And to add to that...if it's a "nice sunny day" the "hounds"(read: motorcycles) are released on the track around 1000.

By the time you get there based on the time you plan on leaving (10-12), the main entrance will be crowded like an Iron Maiden concert.

My plan: Get there by 08:30, get my laps in, then sit back and car watch.

Bringing at least 1 friend who's never been. Should be a good time if the weather is half decent.

If you guys are coming in from the south on the A1 the last Esso before the Ring is in Hermeskeil. This is my prefered place to fill up when I'm heading south or returning. Its got super plus without the ethanol and is a quick jump on /off the Autobahn (3 min. maybe less) http://www.essofuelfinder.com/viewma...d206bda7b03f43

It's looking like shitty weather but I'm down if it looks promising. What direction is everybody coming in from?

Well, the weather forecast looks just a little bit better for Sunday now. Are you guys still planning to go? Maybe you should post up a new thread with the details so everybody can see the info.
