Back from the Ring / Green Hell

Back from short holidays (3 days) with my wife and daughter in Hillesheim, Eifel, on Monday we went to the Nürburgring, had some great impressions
at the backstage tour and finally we went to the Nordschleife to drive 2 rounds, it was very hard with my Skoda Fabia Combi, only 68 PS and too heavy,
if you will drive there a more powerful car would be great, but I had a real great feeling and much adrenalin, so it was it worth.
I will upload the pictures in a Picasa webalbum [picasaweb.google.de]#
and here is a picture:





Happy racing from Germany

I envy you

I drove the track in some racing simulations like rFactor, GTR2, F1C, SCGT, but the reality is much more different,
especially the elevations sometimes you feel like in a roller coaster, many ups and downs and turns...
Driving there is adrenalin pure and gives you a kick, it is really indescribable.
