All,

The title says it all. I was scheduled to drive Damon Hills 1998 F1 car but there was torrential rain so I just played with a F3 car which was more than enough adrenaline!!!! Wow!! 160 mph down the front straight in soaking conditions! How about this for a great quote from the Italians that were my support staff... “don’t worry about losing it at high speed... the down force keeps the car stable. It’s the low speed corners where U need to be careful”. They were kinda right since I spun on my first lap on the first chicane lol but I had no desire to find out if I could truly keep it pinned like I’d practiced with Iracing . Made up for it by passing the most experienced guy in our group in the afternoon session. We bonded after that second session and he asked if I had ever driven open wheel... I said “yes... this morning ”... great guys.. none of them pretentious. Now I’m off to the Nürburgring.

See you all soon at the next autocross. Got a new lump going in the 308 with a dry sump system I designed and installed.... hopefully I got it right so I don’t have to take it easy on the corners like I have been

Can I post pics from my iPhone somehow?

Cheers all!

Hi Sean,
You need photos to be hosted somewhere else to include them in a post here--they cannot be uploaded directly to this forum from your phone, unfortunately.

Once they are hosted elsewhere, they can be placed in your post by including the direct URL to the photo surrounded by the image tags (img).

Sounds like you're having a lot of fun! Would love to see the pics.

TT

Thanks Tom and Dan yes I will put my It support/ wifee on pic hosting. I look out my hotel right now and see “Nürburgring Driving Academy”... couldn’t figure out how the door worked to get on the balcony!!! Had to ask for instructions from the check in girls... Amazing engineering!!! Anyone dig what I’m saying? Seriously!!!! Amazing amazing. The engineering on the door to the balcony of the room is just additional testimony! If you’ve been here u know what I’m babbling about! Some dude towing a 356 in here at 10:30... a wide body old school 911 going out at 6:00 pm when we arrived. I think I want to move here. The passion of it all.. cheers
