all this with no DCT? I'm so jealous. My friends and I did the 'ring a few years ago with 4 of us in a MINI Clubman JCW during a thunderstorm! Even at 11 minutes it's beyond compare!!

Nice!

I got points added (bad) at the 2003 'ring school for touching the brick curbing at Brunchen...lots of points as I used every last bit of it on exit. I guess they don't hand points out on public days.

Fun looking lap. Angst Kurve definitely lived up to its name on that lap. Wow you were flying through there.

I rode with Robert Fassel once in the first gen mini S in 2002. That was a hairy ride too, especially after Robert said: "now we get that Porsche".

Thanks for sharing. Tell us more about the mods please. They look really nice.

Impressive lap. I have to admit, I sweat it out a bit watching--great save too. Will be out at the `ring in a few weeks' time, hope to run into you there.

Very impressive driving!

Maybe you can catch the stock Corvette Z06's time at 7:22 if there isn't any traffic.

I was there Sunday (26th) from 830am to 11am. Didn't see you around.
Anyhow, did 6 laps, and I'm a different man now.

I'm sorry. I was there. But Sunday was too much water for my tires....
But you should have seen my car on the parking lot.
