That's a pretty expansive list for a German car... Every car here is white, gray, silver or black.

You have different tiers, because we all know how Germans love to pay extra for everything. ...

and for the tow.
and for the marshalls and cleanup crew.


BTW, if you crash anywhere in Germany, you're responsible for any barriers that you damage.

Saw this yesterday... Too bad it's so heavily edited. The cars are really closely matched and I would have liked to have seen a real race, not a commercial for the most expensive car rental place...

Probably because it's a good year before this car comes to the US...

Look at the last page and you'll see where the brochure came from. ;)

I dropped into the dealer today and was able to check out a new GTI (5-door). It wasn't a performance package, but it did have the 18" wheel upgrade, HIDs, the new nav system, rear view camera, and...

Thanks, glad you like them... Yeah, that drive was insane. Well worth it in the long run, but a real headache at the time.

I'm done with my time in Germany no later than next March, so this was...

Wow, I'm glad I was down there yesterday... The weather is simply awful right now.

The problem with the Polo has nothing to do with "culture," and has everything to do with cost. VWoA already loses a ton of money on the Golf/GTI/R... They would lose even more on the Polo after...

While not a track picture... This is still relevant. ;)

Top 40 Qualifying just ended... I guess they're having a quick Touristenfahrten?

What'd you drive??

LOL, it seems that every week of May has some random religious holiday... The 24hr race starts this Sunday but stuff has been going on all week. I might head down there for...

Festivities are starting up...

Cool... Kaiserslautern is a great area. Nice and close to the 'Ring - well closer than I am at least.

Will you be bringing a US-spec car over, or are you starting from scratch? Let me know if...

Hanging out with someone from Ramstein AB?

Or he can rent a Swift for 150€ for two laps, full insurance, fuel, etc. The Swift is more than enough fun... If it's your first time out on the 'Ring you'll spend most of your time getting out of...

When are you going to be there??

I haven't been down there yet this year... The GTI is itching to do a few more laps.

What a cluster fuck that must have been.

I hate bikes on the 'Ring... bunch of self centered assholes.

That's gonna be expensive... The armco is a few hundred euro a meter, not to mention the car, towing off the track, etc. OUCH.

I wonder if these guys are still running winter tires or if...

Yep, the track day was cancelled... I'm glad I didn't go down there.
