Awsome airborne pics :rock: Looks like you had a blast :woohoo:

What are Dave's plans for getting home...

Dave got well into the 8's, Andy got a 9:56 and i did a 10:29... It was my 3rd lap ever with no brakes :roll: :wink:

My car could easily get into the low 9's, but as everyone who went on the trip would say, "its not the speed of the car, its the drivers knowledge of the track"...

I was going into 3rd on easy 4th gear corners as i just didnt know the track that well!

It must be a hard track to learn. 8s are very good times aswell.

Yeah, in a day or so, coz the cameras were kindly lent to us by Andy P.

Will try and go to him and download everything onto a DVD, and then start putting them up for everyone

We had scary as hell thunders and lightning just around the Calais/Bologne bit coming back last night. It was proper raining, and we passed some French turd turned on its head in the middle of a lane, slowing traffic down. Must have been trying to be a hero in that rain :mad:

Andrew was starting to get nervous that they might cancel the ferry, but we managed to get on, and the journey was totally smooth. Nothing like what it was going to France.

The weather up in Cambridge was awful though last night (about 23:30 ?)

That last section of driving in France was a nightmare, what a mad storm.

Cant wait to see the videos Bharat, the one of my lap was the best lap of the weekend for me, glad you wasnt filming the off road lap winkeye

Have a look www.nuerburgring.de

Touristfahrten is what you are looking for. Most weekends, unless there are races, and some weekday evenings. Not so much in winter though. :)
