It's a cool track - was just there for the vintage race. I loved Paul Newman's old 308 racing by....OOOOh the sound! It was thrown in with a lot of the formula fords though - too bad

glad to hear he is okay. yeah that is a tight spot there, especially if you just made the pass on turn 8 - you really have to pay attention to see if the guy is behind you or going to be on the inside of turn 9. I really dont like that surface repaving they did their either on that straight section right after turn 9. it is so bumpy and really unsettles things if you are still turning very slightly. but i have my own issues at 8 anyway. ;)

Yeah, Will (512TR) had a small coming together with another BMW and the wall at the apex of turn 9. He had a better line coming out of turn 8, which gave him a good run on the other car going into turn 9, so he had him on the inside of 9, but the other driver pinched him into the wall right after the apex. Crunched the front left of the bmw pretty good, but Will seems to be OK, and the car is expected to be back in action by June.

The TR sounds like Will Defeinbach perhaps. He has a 512TR and races a BMW 3 series. 308 GTB is probably ED, who just returned recently from California.

Neither are presently on Chat.

I today noticed that there were a couple of ferrari's floating around - a yellow 308 gtb and a red testarossa (althoguh I heard something very bad happened while the driver was in a bmw. Actually I didn't just hear, I saw the smoke too. ) Alright, fess up, who were you folks?
