[quote="stuart"]Hockenheim sounded a bit 'interesting' :lol: Not sure I'd be too keen on all of the wacky racer style driving but an experience as you say. Nice :) Noticed that a few people were not wearing lids either :o

Mr Cameron looked like he was enjoying himself, was he writing for Performance Tuner or Road]

Jim was writing for PT or Jap Performance - depending on who wants the story soonest :D

It was fun though :lol:

Duncan - I salute you for the most comprehensive and factual work of art that your write up is ... mate .. amazing.

Looks like you had a fantastic time and seeing the images, reading the commentary makes me feel like I was there :)
Dum spiro, spero

Smashing pics and nicely documented. :notworthy:

Sounds like the best and most fun way to do the Ring and other overseas circuits is in a group. And if anything should happen at least you have people around you that you know and trust. You talk it and walk it.....you're a great example to the rest of us Duncan!! :nod:

Nice one!! :thumb:
Buggers cancelled my op just a couple of days before it was due. Inconsiderate barstewards!! :rant:

Waiting now for another execution date!!:headhack:

A 'loose' group is always good for a laugh so that you can meet up when you want and not if you want to do your own thing.

There are lots of brits there to help and the locals are very helpful too. I always carry plenty of spares though for these trips though as local spares places dont stock too many jap parts and I dont like wasting a holiday waiting for a part. There are places that will get them in though (mostly next day).

I will be camping next year - I loved it :D
