the bruce:
I still like your reports very much.  :happy2:

Unfortunately you're right - a Scuderia is a different league.  :ashamed:

Frenzy:
Watched your 2nd Nordschleife vid - in my opinion you are a very brave driver who takes excellent lines through some of the most demanding corners found on any track anywhere in the world  :notworthy:

I've read the Spa write ups and can't wait to watch the vids for these, just need to find the time but do keep the write ups and the vids coming  :party:

Top Cat:
Really enjoyed the Spa write up Rex.  :happy2:

rex:
Thanks the bruce  :happy2:!

Thank you, Frenzy. Yes, I agree that the lines are brave. Please believe me when I tell you that that lap (the best lap) was a major adrenaline rush for me. I was really on the edge (my edge or the cars edge) a number of times. I honestly think that lap is one in a life time. From now on I either learn to handle the car better and I won't have such an adrenaline rush or, if I'm stupid, I will learn nothing and go over the edge. I hope I will be smart enough not to do that.
At the moment I am out of vids, but I might make one more about overtaking on the North Loop.

Glad to hear that TC!

Hope I didn't make to many grammar mistakes in my comments  :laugh:. If I did, please excuse me!

rex:
Well guys, and to end the story about the last trip I have to talk about the last day.
Beside the post about lapping that day I have to show you photos of the parking lot.

I think my car is well camouflaged:







At least I had Porsche Brakes  :laugh:. I also spoke to some Porsche mechanics and that were replacing OEM pads on a 911 Turbo. The pads were Pagid.
They also changed some pads on other cars in the parking lot with Pagid Blue (at the customers request). So Pagid should work well on Porsche calipers.

And I also have to tell you about the visit I made to Raeder Motorsport that day.
Well, first of all a big THANK YOU for the bruce. This trip was really worth while, great tip. I had the impression that Raeder Motorsport really know what they are doing.
Over here I spent about an hour talking to their technical support engineer. This guy was really helpful.
I still have to think what I want to do next with the car (except the Kerscher wings that will probably be bought in spring) but if I will change my seats, put in a roll cage and buy a harness I think I will go with Raeder Motorsport. This will be done primarily for safety but It's a lot o money and there are many ways to do it so I have to sleep on it.

Thanks for watching!
