Talking Ring on 25th Weekend

Anyone going?

Izzy and I are going out on Friday with our track toy, an old BMW 320is.... Drifttastic

Maybe see some people there?

Look for us in the car-park.... Black and silver car with a big yellow sca-race-rally sticker up the side.

Yup, we're back home now with our slightly crinckley Beemer...

Despite the adventures of Saturday, we had a good time... Was good to meet you guys as well.

We're already thinking of our next trip back out there... We want to see if they replace "our" armco

Everything sorted on the brakes after i went round for a lap and used them very hard. Must have just been some pad transfer or something ?

Not sure about August but will get back sometime this year, Hopefully i will get my passenger lap with you sometime.

Had a great time and everyone was so friendly, brings a tear to my eye just thinking about it.

We MIGHT be back on the 12 August weekend with the Beemer.??? Depend s on on few things, including if we can get the armco bill back from the insurers.... If not though, we will be back sometime this year...

Was great to meet you guys out there last weekend. Glad your cars survived the trip

Unfortunately the car wasn't drift-tastic.... more like snap oversteer manic

Spun at Klostertal taking out 2 sections of armco and bending the Beemers **** onto the rear wheel

Still, with some help from the BMWCCGB guys and the Man at Ring Racing, we were back on track the next day.

Softened the rear dampers and she now has a much more neutral tendancy

Learnt a lot about the car that weekend... Completely different to driving the ring in a Scoob.

Hopefully, we will make the August trip... As Izzy says, depends on finances.

Great to meet everyone there, one of the things I love about the Ring is the social aspect

James.
