He then got introduced to the "C" word a Zak and I had to wait 4 hours for the next boat.

Laptop decided to throw a paddy on route and we subsequently couldnt change the map in the car

Arrived to find MADDOG had a few issues with his car of which we sorted late into the night.
Went to get fuel the next day only to find the petolstations card reader was buggered so we had to leave a passport as a deposit for our fuel and go get some cash

Got in 3 laps of the ring to then be pulled for noise 109dB static

MADDOG kindly lent me a bung so we fitted that and got back out there, got in another 2 or so laps and then noticed the wheel bearing failure.
Spent the next 2 days calling the car a C**T and realised trying to get an Impreza wheel bearing in Germany was like getting a nosh from the pope....

Then decided ADAC membership wasnt worth a carrot as we would have to wait up to 16 days to get the car home.

So on top of all that, i decided we was going to fix it shit or bust. So I spent 3 hours with a thread file kindly borrowed from Mineo @ Ring-Racing dressing the threads on the driveshaft that had stripped and dressing the caliper bolts that had get damagedon removal due to the excessive heat.
Finally got a bearing that Olly at CS Nurburg pressed in for us on the Tuesday morning only to find the hub was funked and we would have to replace that too on arrival back in the UK.
So on the whole it was a bit of a pisser,
So all that shite out of the way, we had a damn good laugh when the rest of the guys turned up and i manged to get in a low 9min lap after just 5 laps.
So with parts now on order for her to be back bigger and better, i cant wait to get back out there.
Special thanks to Zak, MADDOG, Jay and everyone else that helped us get home.
God i love the ring
