Nürburgring!

Here's Mike Drew giving me a pep talk before heading out on the ´ring

A happy camper! They talk Visa!!

Heading out on the track with Ulf Larsson

One from the passenger seat, just before things got interesting ;-)

What's it like? The first time you can only tiptoe around the track... There are hundreds of curves, and a funky "carousel" which scares the hell out of you the first time you see it. What do you do? Dive down into the carousel or stay above it? Will you bottom out? The second time around I followed Ulf, who dove down into it so I knew my car would make it.

You obviously drive carefully knowing that you are 2000 km from home and if you damage the car it's a long way to walk. But you finish with an adreline pump that is impossible to describe.

I have wanted for years to go down there to try out "my own" car, and afterward put the sticker on the car to remind me of the day... Have a friend with a Mitsubishi Lancer EVO VI with over 400 awhp that I mentioned a trip for, and he is game!

The Swedes are planning an International meeting next year that includes a visit to the ´ring... Would be the perfect opportunity to "earn" the sticker!

INFO ON THAT PLEASE!!

You're only about a 90 minute drive or a short phone call from someone that will care for your Pantera like no other. Great pics.

It's on their "front page". The post 2 or 3 down from this one in the Euro-forum also has some additional information, but the pdf has disappeared.

Panther - thanks! Good to know!

Hi all,
Not pantera specific but anyone heading to the ring should check out this site first,
www.nurburgring.org.uk. It's run by a guy
called Ben Lovejoy who is a very experienced
ringer.The site is chock full of everything
you need to know about visiting the green hell
Make sure to read the section on rules, there are allot of them (they are germans after all)
you would'nt want to get banned on your first
trip. Good luck, have fun and keep it on the black stuff.
