Adam, John F and I have all broken 11 mins at the Nordschleife (inc GP) on 155 road tyres with rev limiter, but you do need commitment/to be committed





Was that including a coffee break?

I ran the same set of Bridgestone 250s for all races - £28 Ford Fiesta 850 tyres 155/70/13. They were intermediates when we started and it was dry (too much rubber) and they wore down to a good set of dries near the end of 4.5 hours of track time and it was either soaking or drying out (not enough rubber). I will definitely do one and possibly two more meetings with them (3 races, 2hrs per meeting) this year.

Adam was there for the crack and put the Yokos on just to see the impact. I reckon 3.06 is quick whatever the rubber.

Thank you Toutanet for the excellent photo.

I thought Rob Bergmans in the Iso was a top bloke as well as a good driver

Cheers

Yes, that looks like the one. He kept sliding the car around the corners.
Not even an easy car to drive I think, but must be fun.

Esper, me remembering something, now that is difficult. I haven't been following those races for ages. Wonder why?

The Prinz guy is always coming isn't he? Cracking car - fast! - but he seems to sit a bit lowish?

Dinkel, that is not a Prinz, but a TT.
About the only right hand drive car left I guess. But well driven and noisy.

Glen is a great guy and pretty damn fast in that TT. Can somebody find him a class so he can get out and blow the socks off the small class guys please? He does a bloody good job of embarrassing the rest of us,
