Hey guys,

Wow, I'm glad to see some interested in the Prague meet.
Again, I agree with Santiago and as I propose we do it more easy going this time, with plenty of time to eat, drink, talk, talk, browse the cars and have a nice time.
I guess all I need is a time frame. Or better I can just post a hotel name where I can get a good deal for all of us. And then just whoever makes a reservation and comes over that is it.
I'll be taking care of you and arranging things once everybody is here....

so what do you guys think? Some weekend in late Sept. or early October? Before the cold weather comes and I change to my winters and we all have to drive slower

Maybe few nice lunches and dinners in nice places around Prague?
One afternoon nice convoy drive trip to a castle out of Prague?

What about a E60 group shoot out in front of the presidents palace?

Perhaps - EXCLUSIVE RENT OF THE "MOST" RACING CIRCUIT for an hour or two.
Tim, Steve and I know what we are talking about

Hi guys, here are some videos from the meeting. Compressed, in wide format (16/9)

Group meet at the hotel's restaurant - Tuesday, late afternoon.

Wednesday early morning Lundshut (outside hotel) ...where we caused a little traffic jam...


I'll make them a little better quality and I'll upload them on my FTP server here:
OK, now it works, I'll add more vids later, because my uploading speed is very slow :thumbsdown:

I'm sorry Alex for the M5's bad luck, I've just realised that the 1st of 7 gears can go 70 KM like a flash , I thought it could auto-change gears (not familiar with SMG)

Anyway, good luck at the Ring (pay your attention), thanks for all and have a "Kotobuki" living

Nick
Hi Nick,

We arrived in Rio yesterday. We couldn't ride at the ring because when we arrived the track just had closed 5 min ago (Oil in the track). Some minutes later Polizei arrived and hold the drivers involved in the crash. . But we took some pics:

Hi Peter, I am ABSOLUTELY interested in a meeting in Prague - however, you list a lot of activities and I suppose we could chose which to do, but with all the stuff you propose it would be hard to choose though!

I'm ready for a meet anytime. However, I can only do it on a weekend - maybe take Friday off and drive there early morning until Sunday mid day or so. I used up all my vacation with Alison.

Also, I would not mind if we got together again sooner than late September. I suppose we could all do a weekend drive at any time?? I do not want it to be cold when we meet.

About hanging out - find a hotel with ample parking so we can meet by the cars this time and talk, talk, talk like you say. Get to know each other an relax in the good company. The picture at the palace sounds great and the drive to the castle is also good. I've never been to Prague so anything would be new and beautiful to me.

Just let me know, but count me in already. If you post a date and for some reason I'm busy that weekend, then I'll tell you.

Regards to all,

Santiago.
