►►►►► Nurburgring Photos (and vids)!!
Where do I start? Wow, what a weekend! It’s going to be near impossible to give a full run down of events as there were so many memorable moments. We had an absolute blast and all I remember is constantly laughing for 3 days!!
Memorable Quotes Euro Star Lady: Are you carrying any pets? Steve: Yes just gimp boy here (pointing at Carlos) Offering the steak sauces around the table Paul: Dill or no dill (deal)! Carlos: (laughs) that’s a good one, I get it! Paul: Carl that was YOUR joke from yesterday! References to Steve’s number plate One of us: Can I get a Whoop? All reply: Whoop! Whoop! Dinner table banter about hairy French girls Steve: But how did you know she was French Paul? Paul: Because you could just tell looking at her… Steve: That’s rubbish! Paul: She was also wearing a beret and an onion necklace! Carlos talking in his sleep: Steve your car is so much faster than the DXB Discussing the electric orthopaedic beds in the hotel Steve: The average age in this hotel is about 70 Paul: It’s not a hotel it’s an old people’s home! Miss Boo: The bill was more last night because we all had beef which is dear Carlos: No it wasn’t deer it was beef! Memorable Moments Driving through tunnels recording our exhaust notes (*vids to come later*) Wearing high-vis vests on the Eurotunnel and other motorists believing we were staff Singing Westlife on the Eurotunnel on the way home (*video coming soon!*) Lots of thumbs up for the E92 M3 during the convoy to the Ring Steve’s “Meet the Parents” story! Miss Boo’s sickness after first Ring lap Traffic jam cone zigzag choreography and horn beeping!! Carlos spots one of Steve’s films in French garage!! Tony’s Paparazzi camera in restaurant – FLASH kept blinding us!!! Hazard flashing between Steve and Paul – Carlos feeling left out and flashing too! VERY public toilets in Gent, Belgium Slag room in Gent restaurant! Donuts in various car parks at the Ring and at Zolder (*vids coming soon!*) MORE pictures to come so please check back soon!

Welcome back guys!
I like how the MPG dropped by the time you'd completed the round-trip... must have taken you ages to get it over 22mpg in the first place!

Nice pics.
I feel for the 993 owner, I think I would have been tempted to wonder out into the middle of the track after that. Just for the record, there is never a need for mens arses on the forum! |

After all the trouble we went to setting those drive by's up, it was a bit of anti-climax really in the end wasnt it!!! Still, i should be used to anti-climax's, ive had my fair share of them buggers in my game by now!!!
