good recommendation on the pizza place near the pit stop smile

had such an amazing weekend, had dry laps, wet laps, loads of nice food and no hiccups at all smile

same again next year please
I did see you on track a couple of times over the weekend, looked quick!

I had a blast, it lived up to everything I hoped it would be. The track is amazing, the surrounding areas in terms of people, roads, restaurants, scenery was fantastic and I can't wait to go again.

Had so much fun in my Eunos, might be totally standard and a bit slow but was so fun squeezing everything I could (safely) get out of it.

Unlike you, I'm too cheap to pay for my photos...

Just been myself, MK3 Leon Cupra 280 with Stage2 upgrades including 370mm 2 piece disks and Brembo 4 pots and fluid.

Only did 1 lap, was going to do a second but the Megane had the big crash. Was really busy (sunday) so spent most of the time sat with my right indicator on letting other people past. its very scary and you need to be watching mirrors at all times. but I really enjoyed it as well.

Hoping to go back to do another few laps but will never be chasing times.

A very interesting thread chaps, thank you. It's a big birthday next year, so I was wondering about going from Le Mans over to the ring on the Monday, do a few laps TF (with all the crap out of the car!), and then head home.

I've been told the Sagaris scrapes on Karussel, and to take the high line. Can anyone confirm this please?

I'd go around the top if your on standard set up the springs rate is too soft for the Ring when I took mine years back.
Tyres will hit the inner arches all over the place. Next visit with uprated springs and dampers it was fine everywhere including Karussel
