Got a track day spec clio, almost built in 4 working days!!! Just got to do final touches today.

with the lack of time i had, this is nothing short of a miracle as it has had a fair bit done to it and custom fabricated. Only wish i had time to cage it before we went.

Hurrah!

Well done that man. I saw yesterday Vettel's team changed his engine in less than 2 hours, what is your excuse?

😉

[555_Si]

My team consists of me and jo and did i mention the impact gun issue????

[Seanedg]

Cars ready, had wheel alignment done today, wasn't out much considering I've had the front suspension apart.
Just got to pack my bag and make sure paperwork is all in order

Steak is Saturday night, Sunday night can be whatever people fancy, if we decide early enough Saturday we can always try and book somewhere for the Sunday... probably Jackie's Monday night but again down to what ever people fancy, nothing set in stone.

[Seanedg]

I'll have

Fresh deep fried mushrooms served with mayonnaise

Rump steak, served with homemade herbed butter, with fries

And Jason will have

Cream of fresh carrot soup topped with whipped cream

Rump steak, served with homemade herbed butter, with fries

Thanks si

For the Sunday cant recommend the place up by the castle enough. Lots of the locals go there, Huge burgers, schnitzel, amazing views out on the veranda. A definite go to place for dave and I now. I think you all would love it.

It doesn't look anything from the car park side but when you go in it has memorabilia everywhere and the decking has the panoramic views. The restaurant is nicely done and the staff friendly.

[Steve_PPP]

That sounds a great idea Wanda, be nice to try somewhere new.

[Rdlangy1]

How wrong does it sound when I say "I miss Schnitzel" ha ha

[The Handbrake]

Edited post above for link. Slightly cheaper than bleu ecke and tastier I found and still huge burgers lol

[The Handbrake]

Grrr spell correct lol

[Red Baron]

Think Scott and I went there back in 2012, just sat out on the deck in the sun with a beer and a bowl of chips each.

On another note, what's the big structure going up on the circuit on the Web cams, looks like a stage.

[little emp]

Could I please have:


Roasted chicken breast marinated with thyme, lemon, sweet pepper and garlic with French fries

Callum would like:

Cream of fresh carrot soup topped with whipped cream 4, 50

Rump steak (medium), served with homemade herbed butter with French fries

Big emp would like:
Rump steak (well done), served with homemade herbed butter with French fries

And kerry would like: Homemade tagliatelle, served with wild garlic and almond pesto, tomatoes and shavings of fresh parmesan (V) with French fries

Thanks!

They are starting set up for n24 or strongman event

[nikkinokkinoo]

What lap times are people hoping for? I didn't bother timing it last year but I may do this year just for the crack - hope I can go faster than Sabine in the Transit from that TG episode.

[Neil97rs]

Just hoping to get round in one piece lol

I don't time whilst in the car, but just lookup times afterwards on the video (from timestamps under the bridge/gantry). Would be nice to go under 9 minutes again, not managed it for a couple of years due to weather/traffic/overheating scoob but not fussed if it doesn't happen. These days its more about getting away from work, enjoying the people, food and beers

But I think my lot have already sorted dinners

[Ferd]

Don't suppose there's any chance of you telling me when you're about 1hr away from the turn in Germany where you change from the A60 to the A1? Then I can see about making my way and joining you that point. I took a look at meeting you up near Liege where you stop but that's a long way in the wrong direction.

Is anyone using Waze on the their phone for navigation? Would make this easier.

[nikkinokkinoo]

One more day in the orifice and then try and get an early night.

Going to try and get packed and loaded tonight.

**** NOTE TO SELF ===> SET ALARM ****

Long weekend of car things - doesn't get much better.

Friday looking a bit damp but dry remainder.

[AndySpecD]

Guys, I'll be out there Thursday to Sunday so will keep an eye out for you and the Scoobies.

Out in the M140 and a mate in his E46 M3.
