Awesome Pics. I miss the ring. Its addictive. I'm 9 months from going home, and I'm already ordering parts.

Check out my experiences at the ring.

Still trying to decide if I should go with 275 front/315 rear tires on 17's, or just put 255's on my 16in rims.

Hilarious that they dont make you wear a helmet. No matter how fast your car is you are surrounded by fast cars that could be driven by idiots. Especially if you have people renting track cars there. Im all about dangerous and stupid, but you would think they have insurance companies telling them to have stuff like that.
Did they do any kind of inspection on your car?
I definitely envy you.

Sadly enough, that's what I was thinking. Damn I miss Germany.

Helmets are recommended I believe but not required. I brought my helmet with me but didn't wear it.

The nurburgring site did state that the car that you will drive has to be in an inspection order by German standards and should be insured.

That being said, my car was never inspected by the Germans/inspectors nor I was asked if I'm insured or have proof of insurance.

My next track to visit is the Le Mans track in France. I doubt that I'll be able to drive my car in "FULL" circuit instead it'll probably be the Buggatti circuit.

Next one after that is the Silverstone track here in England.

Alright man.. I bought my 3500 stall from you and that practically makes us family. That said...... Do you have a guest room!?

I'm simply envious.
