before bed then the eurostar in the morning

[Niall]

What time were you going past Clacket lane services today? Im sure i saw a white 306 going the other way on my way home but didn't see it in time to have a proper good look to see if the wurzels were on tour

[bashbarnard]

Insanely jealous of you guys going to the ring. Have fun and get pictures up.

[cully]

Just worked out my Mpg for the first leg
Cullompton Devon - Ashton Kent 232miles for 29ltrs works out to 36.4Mpg
M5-A303-M3-M25-M26-M20

Don't think that's too bad I was expecting worse

That's my daily mpg. Granny drivers get good mpg eg me haha

[Dum-Dum]

f*ck I'm barely getting that out the state at the moment.
She does have a fuel leak though

[cully]

What an epic day
Went out today and did two ring laps back to back on road tyres
11.22 minutes first lap 11.10 second lap both dry laps first time out with no prep on the xbox
I'm happy with that

Tomorrow if it's dry I'm out on competition tyres

[Midnightclub]

Good going mate

[Toms306]

I'll be impressed with sub 10 minutes.

Sounds good though!

[Dum-Dum]

Pics?

[Tom]

Did 2 laps, used 2 tanks of fuel, awesome!

[cully]

Sorry won't be uploading pics till I'm home as limited connection with net
Gives good weather tomorrow and hope to see fooby and the camping group

[cully]

One in our group has had a bad day!
His car won't be returning to the UK
He also has a rather large bill from the track support team at the ring
Every one in the car is safe and well despite air bags deployment and 32mtrs of barrier needing replacement

[titch]

Ouch !! at least they are all safe and well. Did they have insurance?
My mate had a similar experience a few years back when his wheel came off, don't they charge by the metre for the barrier and then for the saftey car as well ? then to top it all off my mate wrote the hire car off on the way home aswell .

[Niall]

Oh shit. Hope who ever it is is all ok. How are they getting home, hopping in with others?

[swampy]

Ouch that's not going to be cheap.

Yeah they charge by the meter and that's a fair amount plus don't they charge for closure time?

[Niall]

Closure time, quite a few euros for the recovery to the car park and charge for any repairs. Iirc it's something like 500 euros just for recovery off the ring.

[Grant]

Ooops! Glad everyone is ok though. Money and materialistics can be replaced.


What actually happened?

[Matt]

Doesn't sound good! Who was it? Hope the Nurburgring bill isn't too much...

[Dum-Dum]

Glad everyone is OK. It wasn't that golf that has been all over you facebook today was it? So sad that someones pride and joy isn't coming home, must be like a family member dying on holiday.

The bill from the ring will be f*cking huge, would be cheaper if they had gold plated armco.

[cully]

Been a very sunny day today being a Saturday it's been very busy at the ring
Lots of nice cars and very little track Time due to the ring being closed due to safety
I got an early ride out with Jimmy boy nice fast clean low 10 minute lap
Not long after it was shut then for most of the day
I did get a dry run in mine on race tyres
Had to take to the grass to avoid a wrecked audio tt but once clear I had an epic lap
Race tyres are the dogs dangles car is like on rails around the corners

One more full day left here and one more ring run left in the pocket
Time has gone to quick

[cully]

Sorry guys I'm not letting any info about the crash in our group as I don't know how info is been relayed back to family

[cully]

Had my last lap at the ring today another epic lap my fastest yet 10:04 mins
Car has survived the ring now just the journey home to do
An early nite with a few less beers for the trip home tomorrow

[Niall]

Can stop by mine on the way home to drop off my go pro
