WTF?
Widely known as the 'Nurburgring' wink

Lovely picture, shame the car is so dirty
biggrin They could have made more of an effort, couldn't they.

Not Flugplatz either.

I am ashamed paperbag. Where is it?
Pflanzgarten. smile

Also a bit of trivia; Contrary to what the "Flugplatz" name brings to mind, there is actually no jump there. The name comes from an airfield that used to be located near the spot.

Excellent, this is going on my work pc on monday. Got to try and find the similar shot of Hans Joachim Stuck in the old CSL as well
Is that the one in the black M-Works colours, fully airborne? Motorsport magazine July '74?

This has been on my "to do list" for a long time. Must make more effort as flying on Concorde was on it as well!
