Great thread Glad you had fun picking up your car Poleposition. Completely agree that German traffic tends to be very well behaved, especially on derestricted sections.

Cant wait for my trip to Nurburgring later this year..

Nice pole...Drive it like you stole it, and dont worry thats what synthetic oil is for. Be careful of a GT2 or 3 lapping you at warp speed lol
