A couple of pics from this weekend at the ring. After the fog lifted it turned into a gorgeous sunny day


8am before the track opened

Knee deep in snow one weekend, completely dry track with 20 degrees the next!

4 1/2 hours from Calais unless your a biker friend of ours who used to make the trip in 2 1/2 hours ever week. That was at a constant 170 - 176mph....Oh and before you ask it was an R1 and he now flies EVERY WEEK.


Gary

Dream Weaver 22 March 2005 10:58 AM

Excellent shots, love the first 2 arty shots. :)

Wish I could afford to go as often as you guys, in fact I wish I could afford to go full stop - new house has put a stop to that ;)

I will make it one day, oh yes :D

Gutmann pug 22 March 2005 12:23 PM

£40 for flights, £20 per day car rental, £30 per night accomadation plus fuel etc. I bet you spend more than that on a couple of good nights on the beer.......

Stop making excuses :D

Gary

chrome 22 March 2005 12:33 PM

jeez thats CHEAP :eek:


hm.. wheres my phone ;)

Gutmann pug 22 March 2005 02:12 PM

Obviously that doesnt include you driving the track but as my brother said last weekend (his first visit) where else can you see so much exotica playing. Its a buzz just to watch, let alone to drive too.

Gary

If your interested in costs etc then pop over to www.northloop.co.uk and I will help you out.

I'm pretty sure webby doesnt mind me telling you the address as its to give out info not to compete with Scoobynet.

Karl 227 22 March 2005 02:27 PM

Where are the pictures of me, bumface.:mad:

BTW, I did offer your brother a lap but he refused. :(

Gutmann pug 22 March 2005 02:29 PM

I have a couple of pics of you winkle ........ im holding them in reserve :D . They will go on the site tonight with a bit of luck.

I saw loads of you on the touristfaher site though.......

My brother only did one pax lap with me, said he felt sick and didnt come out again.....poooooooof

warrenm2 22 March 2005 03:29 PM

touristfaher site? explain? webby?

Gutmann pug 22 March 2005 03:36 PM

Dont need to explain, the people I was talking to know where i'm coming from. :D

Gary

davyboy 22 March 2005 03:38 PM

....ah he's the chap who has seen you knob right?

:)

scoobyboy1 22 March 2005 04:22 PM

Me and a few mates are thinking of going across around July time, and after seeing those photos I cant wait, My brother needs to get his trackday Renault 5 Turbo up and running quick. :)

RON 22 March 2005 07:47 PM

Great video mate.... well shot/driven etc..... that'll be one fairly swift 944 then eh!!!!

One day.....

Eat My Dust 22 March 2005 08:25 PM

Some very nice shots there! And I like the fleeces, better go check the Northloop merchandising page :)

Will download the 944 video tomorrow when back at work on a fast connection.

Don't see many 205's on the Ring. What sort of spec is the car?

aggs 22 March 2005 08:29 PM

I thought you maybe interested in this,a lap of the ring in under 7 mins in a BMW gtr, a special car but equally a superb video.
The first 1.5 mins is on Grand Prix Track.

On a seperate note G.Pug where did you get your sun roof plated?
How much?
I have just bought a 205 and found out the sunroof leaks, not sure if to repair sun roof or just seal it up!!!
But does seem a shame to ruin what is actually a car in good condition.

Hope link works ok.
Aggs

Gutmann pug 22 March 2005 09:02 PM

My sunroof isnt plated. But if you want it done any good fabrication shop will be able to help you out I should think.

Gary

aggs 22 March 2005 09:24 PM

Sorry Gary I thought I had read it in a thread.
Graham

Deep Singh 22 March 2005 09:29 PM

Nice vid. What exactly is a BMW GTGR?

Dream Weaver 22 March 2005 10:09 PM

Aggs, it will be the seals around the sunroof handle that leak probably - just bung some new ones in, and silicon the aeriel nut up :)

davyboy 22 March 2005 10:18 PM

Have a look on my site it shows the spec of the 205 etc. I wont bore everyone on here with the details, they have heard it a 100 times in the past.
Merchandise is very cheap :D
