A few pics from my weekend at the nurburgring
A few pics from my trip to the nurburgring last weekend. The car was epic on the motorway, the country lanes and on the nordschleife it really came to life.

Here's a horrible potato video, after the madre had driven her lap and I was taking the last one. Listening to her cringe always cracks me up. Last edited by PRTSB1M; 08-27-2020 at 09:24 AM.. |

I have timed the bridge to gantry after watching back the on board camera a good few years ago and the quickest lap was 8.47. It's now got bilstein clubsports and a bit more power but i didn't time any hot laps this weekend or the previous trip as I don't like the pressure of it. You have to drive each lap to the conditions, oil on track is a regular occurence and it's not always marked with a warning triangle. You also need to make the right calculated decisions on overtaking as there are motorbikes mixed in with cars and a lot of amateurs. Saturday afternoon was really messy, on 1 lap there were 3 sets of yellow flags/lights and at least 4 slippery surface warning triangles, I was glad just to complete that lap.
I'm currently building a Mégane RS250 as a dedicated track car so that I can do some trackdays again and push a bit more at the ring as the 1M is a bit too precious to me. |

I remember when I was on the Nordschleife, half the time my eyes were on the rear view mirror looking out for porsche's and m3's. And I agree with the pressure for lap times, it takes a lot of fun out of it!
