This thread is great.




At the top of my travel list is going to Germany and visiting the ring. Hopefully I will get to hit it up within the next few years.

Oh, and at this thread.

maybe its a German National holiday?

and damn that Gallardo is sick.. that black treatment on the front lip along w/ the black wing does wonders for it!!! makes it look all race. wouldn't you agree, Minch?

now we have to wait till 11-12pm for them to get open back up and get busy. I emailed Ben Lovejoy and asked some questions about the track and his expeeriences. Im going to try and get him, next time he goes, to make a sign that says Acurazine and hold it out the window of his car.

I hope all of us remember that Germany is six hours ahead lol...and thats why theres no action after say 1 o'clock or so.

Srika I agree with what you said about the Gallardo...looks very nice.

I kinda wish they had a few more different angles at the start up...if you know what i mean. How nice would it be if the web cam was a live video feed with sound and everything

I know about the time difference, I guess I'm just mad because since I start work late (11) I miss most of the action. BUT I'm glad you all posted screenshots and let me experience it vicariously through you

yeah maybe in the future they can add interactive web-cams like they had for the Chicago Auto Show... those were pretty damn sweet.

$200 - 8 Laps on the ring
$1000 - 200km rental (Ferrari f355 Spider)
$250 - Alt. car rental.

So I was a little off, but why would you do this alone!

Each person, if 2 went, could do it for $2000 .
$1287 @ www.cheaptickets.com - one stop-over ain't too bad. Just a quick search, I won't doubt there are even better deals out there.



and oh yea, tix to India are cheap cuz nobody wants to go there.

those are some of the best designed wheels ever, in the universe.

I mean, I know I haven't seen all the wheel designs in the universe but damn those have gotta be up there.
