I agree..looks a bit dinky.. I like to tilt my head a lot in the corners (neck not strong enough) and my brother in law hardly fits in the car.. his helmet was hitting the roof through flugplatz

good spot with the tyres.. the fronts are 215/45/17 on different sized rims to the honda ones...the shoulders are also different to the Bridgestones..



tyre pressures were quite hard to set as it was difficult to get the hot pressure (circuit was very busy to get off) as the track/air was also quite cool.. with the Advans, we were setting the fronts at 26-27psi - compared to 30 - 32 psi when I was using Toyo's at easter

the front grip was brilliant..and the balance was neutral/oversteer... whereas with the Toyo's it was tending to understeer.. it's the rear tyre which probably not optimised yet - I should really get an alignment done..as it's a few years since I did it.

I'm reasonably sure that its coming around T13 (just after the GP cicuit and near that giant Coke can) - but not 100%.

Sorry! hehehe

Wouldn't that have the concrete wall in the background rather than grass if is was at t-13?
What about after Fuchrohre, and the kink at Adenauer Forst (where Rukus nearly hit the armco). I'm not 100% on that either as there is quite a camber in the road. It's bloody hard with photos from a reverse angle as we view the track going forwards.

I think I solved it

will post the solution later.. have it on my home pc.

I reckon that photo was taken at The Ring!!

BenHampton

Give that man a cigar









and then a punch in the goolies! : )

exit of Hocheichen - I guess mr lovejoy won't be wrong

I should have checked his site earlier because the pic was taken by his friend.

BenHampton

Ah, now don't forget that Mr Lovejoy CAN be wrong...

He's crashed more cars at the Ring than anyone else I've met!

Kobe

yep.. quite true.. though I think he is right with this one.

btw.. how big did the old ring thread get to last time?? should at least exceed that one since you started this one a lot earlier

I will have to keep going back every so often to keep the thread ticking over..

I actually found a ring ticket under my drivers seat when I was cleaning the car.. 1 lap remaining on it

BenHampton

yeah, I think he is, too.

it had 1,258 replies and was viewed a massive 10,615 times! yay!!!!

this one is moving in the right direction considering we're closer to Easter 2005 than we are to Easter 2006! : )

Ah, its not wasted, Richard - keep it as a souvenir - when else do you get to keep a Ring ticket? Frame the little bugger!
