Good write up and what an experience.  That hotel looks like a Porsche dealer  :grin:

So, did you try it on with Sabine or what... :smiley:

Never been to the ring, my only hope is Gran Turismo 5 :grin:

Nice work Gulf!! Really enjoyed that and looking forward to the Vids when I get home (crappy server at work).

It's on the tick list to do, so hope to get over there in the next few years. Does look a bit intimidating I'll give you that  :wink:

Great write up.   I've got my second trip in 7 weeks and also booked one for October.   It's easy to get bitten by the bug!

You'd only had the car a few weeks right? That's some running in procedure!

Both my trips are with some guys from uk-mkivs.net.   We're from up north too and also go via Hull.
