Last week I did my last track day for this season (2010). It was damp on the Ring, but always breathtaking to drive and generally be there.

Re: Nürburgring visits
i know this is an old post but still......I live just north of Atlanta, Ga. U.S.A. I have built me a racing 'set up' to play my GT-5 game on and my favorite track is the Ring. I would give anything to bring my 69 ghia that I race in the SCCA and run the ring.

Well, don't feel bad; likewise I would give 'anything' to run on the salt at Bonneville with my own 1303, but alas...

Nice car -- you need to do a thread with a bunch of pics so we can steal some of your ideas LOL
I'm leaning towards competing with the protouring V8 boys --- just want to skeer them a little LOL

Re: Nürburgring visits
IIRC it was made entirely by Holzapfel Tuning in the south of germany. It competed very competetively in serious races with the then latest 911's and did often better then those.r1cpowdercoating wrote:who makes it and were can I get a roller? lol
Think mega budget, custom everything, but you probably already figured as much

Re: Nürburgring visits
yea I figured so. I have seen several other cars like it. sure was hoping there was one here in the states. My budget will not allow me to have one shipped from germany. oh well here's to wishing right?

Re: Nürburgring visits
You're right in that they don't have a website, but they are located in Leonsberg iirc.
I don't have a phone number or mail adress myself though, sorry..
