The Zed Shed Crew does Nurburgring


Keyser

Recommended Posts

Good Morning from The Sunny South, Today the sun is coming up over the Zed Shed "Hissing Sid" is sitting outside the window in need of a good wash and some serious attention to bug removal :lol:

 

But to start you off with some pictures of the trip I thought these would help you over breakfast.

 

Me being the healthy eater I had a small salad

We wanted something big enough for all the candles so Buster goes for a small pizza -

This was Busters secret birthday weekend but I think it was also an excuse for a couple of us to tick one off the bucket list of the middle aged petrol head man!

1.Thanks to Bennett for organising/constant source of info which was a great help to us Ring Virgins!

2.This trip was not just all about cars/Nurburgring/Zeditus etc,but a bunch of guys and girls who for some stupid reason had an amazing time together driving,eating,drinking,sun burning,braking down,crashing,telling jokes(war stories) and a never ending bond of comradery when the chips are down.

3.OMG the Ring is an experience like no other.Wacky Races meets M25 on speed is my best description!

4.It was a shame I didn't get the chance to really push my car due to the clutch slave cylinder packing up on but i will go back in the autumn for another trip.

5.The service received in the bars,restaurants and shops throughout our stay in Germany was outstanding and to be honest very refreshing compared to home!

6.Thank god we got home yesterday through the tunnel before the fire were lit by the entrance! Lol

7.Thanks to Katina for not screaming too loud on my first lap even though I drove like I was gong to Tescos and we got over taken by a Transit Van and a people carrier with 5 smiling children Inside!

8. A few pics with more on my camera to follow.

How bad was the damage on your car Chris when you hit the kerb? Just a minor altercation and was Bob driving it at the time ;)

 

No completely down to me :(

 

Not going to try and excuse it - I was driving, yes it was tight but I should have missed the curb, no major damage just peeled a bit of the wrap of the side skirt, looks worse than it is as the wrap tears unlike paint.

 

I hit the same side skirt on a speed bump a few weeks ago so I'll just take it off and get them to wrap it again.

 

The downside was the drag created cost me time on the ring :rant:

 

 

:lol:

After the disappointment of my clutch packing up during day one of our epic voyage I just want say a big thank you to Bob and Chris for sorting out my slave cylinder so quickly as they both knew how much I needed the car working for the secret Nissan day and Trax.

A few pics which obviously highlight their exceptional skills.
