Trip to the Nurburgring

[vexor]

Yesterday I got back from my trip to Italy and Germany and also the Nurburgring. This was my 4th or 5th time at the track and this time I rented a race car to take on the track and even though it was just a Suzuki swift with a weight reduction and minor boltons, it was a blast to drive and I even managed to hit 200km/h on some sections (not the main straight)
first pic is of my rented car

This guy forced the closure of the track for over an hour (driver was ok)

Great stuff Vexor. Must be a blast driving a rental :)

Poor E92, looks like it plowed into the guard rails pretty bad.

Nice picks Vexor!
Haven't been to the ring yet, but I suppose should be an incredible experience.
Were you all day or just a couple of laps?

I rented the car for 1/2 day, 300 euro

I suppose that isn't a terrible price :)

Great photo, and what an awesome time! Did you bring along a vbox or similar with you?

Really fantastic!

It IS cheap.

Planning a trip to Brazil found out that Avis rents a GM Astra (nothing glamorous, right?) for almost 180 USD for one day, non-weekend.

So 300 euro for half a day in that Swift in the Ring is comparatively peanuts!!!
