Hello. I went to the Nurburgring.





Here is my lap video.

Obviously I would have liked to go quicker in trip 1 but I am happy being into mid 9s. Starting to put together more and more of the track and hopefully will click next time.
Damp conditions and lack of knowledge were incredibly intimidating. I think I did go faster on a lap afterwards but not filmed so ignore.

Saw some insane other bits and pieces out there. Got merked by a Gumpert out of the karrousel one lap which was awesome.













Also got to do a bunch of laps with this fella in a Schirmer E92. 7:20s all day long. Overtaking literally everything. Bonkers bonkers cars. Guy daily drives a Speciale and said this is different league.

Car is looking great mate, look forward to seeing some more progress.

I was out at the ring this weekend also, I see you got out before the rain on Sunday. The speed some of the locals get in the e92s & 911s is ridiculous, would have loved to gte out for a quick lap like that. The chap in the Gumpert was abusing it all weekend which was great to see also.

What site did you get those photos from? they look great.

The ones of mine and Nige in the Schirmer E92 are from Michaela at http://www.ms-ringpics.com/?l=en. Really great quality!

Yeah I was there at 8am over the weekend to bang some laps out before people started stacking em!

Car looks great, but totally overshadowed by that Alpine!

Looks fantastic. I’d leave it as is. I think these sort of cars get ruined with huge wings etc. Although I could understand why they’d be necessary on a track car.

Unless two people with exactly the same name both own LS3 powered E46 M3s in exactly the same colour with exactly the same wheels, I presume so?

Wow, what a build!

Just shows what a lot of time, and mostly money can do to a car.
