I thought I'd make an "official" thread about this. Some people have already said they'll come, but it would be good if everyone confirms or signs up here. So far:

Andre
Jan
Some of Jan's mates (was it two scoobies and a Skyline?)
Claudius
Maxi
Me

Did I forget someone?
Has anyone told Gerrit yet? Ah, well, now he'll know...

And anyone's invited except for prats, idiots and *******...

 

As already said on the MLR it's unfortunately too early for me.

Maybe in April I'm driving in Hockenheim the short circuit if my bad back allows it.

Cheers

Mike

 

Could you tell me more about the meeting?
When? Where? What?

 

Yes, Mike, it's on the 2.-3.3. at the Ring (like it says in the title )
and it looks like most people will stay over, probably in the Dorint hotel. Otherwise people will probably hang around somewhere in the parking area when not on track. Come too, by all means.

 

I'm in for sure and staying at the hotel, 3 friends (Scooby STI - EVO6 - EVO7) are coming as well. Can somebody give me the hotels' phone number so I can make reservations.

 

I will be there! I am at the Ring every weekend (almost). Getting lots of rain practice lately. Today (only) 4 laps in the rain. Tomorrow lots and lots.

 

How much does it cost (in US $) to play in the Ring?

 

Why does Europe have all the great street courses. Here in the Us we have to race around ovals always doing left turns. WHY WHY WHY?????

That reall sucks for us and you guys have all the fun over there.

 

Just wanted to say what a great meeting it was. Some nice people and good driving (not from me, yet). It was nice to finally meet you Andre and Jan (Andre, sorry I didn't say bye, but Gerrit left and I just drove off with them and then remembered on the A61...sorry...).
Thanks for the laps, Andre (Civic Type R, very GOOOOD! ) and Jan.

I think we should make this something of a regular occasion, how about we meet up during the week once, I want to take a holiday to drive there quite soon anyway, what do you think? Or just meet up on a weekend again?

 

It was great fun! Jan (Raven) is getting faster and faster. Andre in the Civic was super. but next time come in your Evo!!

The day before at Boemanns was very educational: high boost and Ralliart ecu dont work. Got a much nicer power curve with 1.2-1.3 bar boost and still 363 hp. 1.4 bar retarded the ignition to much.

We should meet more often. My car will get a cage next week, but I will be at the Ring on the 16/17 of March.

Where were our brittish friends? And Maxi and Fuel-pump Claudius?

 

Hmmm Gerrit, I could come on the 17th, on the 16th I'll be leaving Cebit and will be hungover I'm sure But I think the 17th should be o.k.. Now that I have my Jahreskarte....
Hopefully it will be a little warmer too. Then you have to have a ride with me and show me some more lines... I want to do the Sport Auto Lehrgang too. ****, this Nürburgring stuff is gonna eat more money...

AFA our British friends, I don't know, a little far for them I suppose, but I think some will come down during the summer. Claude HAS to come, otherwise we'll start calling him "superpussy".....

 

Guys,

Excellent weekend, I was surprised that they sound-checked my car, lucky me it was only 95db, watch out guys, everything over 100 might be banned. Just arrive around midday when it's crowded and take it easy a lift off.

I'm up for 16-17 March, but only 1 day, it depends, a friend is coming back from Asia, we might decide to come down 2 days, dunno yet.

It was good to see Michael, darn, I missed Andre in the flesh but I passed him on the RIng and it was not an easy job to get passed him, very impressive driving Andre. Or is it me being a bad driver with a 350 hp evo against a standard civic with 200 hp , anyway, Gerrit is still the one to follow, it will be a tough job especially since his car is giving such an impressive power output. And what about those weird lines Gerrit, you once were on the complete wrong side of the corner but going much faster, what kinda obiwan-thing was that!

Andre, what happened to your friend who crashed his Civic, is car total loss?

Jan.
