    Cram:

     (1) How many times did i hear you saying, YES, NO. Maybe.

    (2) You were already very good with the boxter, now you are going to be even better, but watch out, This are two totally different cars but i'm sure you know it.Smiley

    (3) I see you having the same GT3 stickers as i do.



    Thanks very much for the good wishes, buddy Smiley
    (1) Right, but sometimes it needs a bit forth and back to enjoy complete satisfaction Smiley

    (2) Boxster please SmileySmiley I know in your case it's just a typo SmileyI know buddy - have encountered too many GT3-drivers at the Ring who don't know how to tame the beast Smiley
    Will get a lot of training next season before I'll make a serious attempt at NoS. Both - the Eifel roller coaster and the GT3 deserve a lot of respect Smiley

    (3) Smiley Can't wait for the first pics of our two babies in parallell flight in the Eifel Smiley

    Would love to see you back in Good Old Germany, DC Smiley
    Same goes for Throt of course - there are some fancy hairdresser shops in D'dorf waiting for you, hehe Smiley

    @ RC: yes I hope very much for an early Spring this year - more than ever Smiley

    @ Alex: the GT2 seats were retrofitted by the first owner (I still have the original sport seats as a second set). From my butt feeling the GT2 seats are a bit more comfy compared to the GT3 bucket seats. I'm curious how they'll work on the track Smiley 

    @ Fritz: thanks for the valuable hint - I'll let it check at the PZ Smiley

    @ Richard: thanks a lot, bud Smiley Hope to meet you at Rennteam more often again - can't open a thread like this every other week Smiley

    Re: I'm in heaven

    Oh well this is just great. I just booked tickets to Australia for my vacation this year and you go and do this. What an unbelievable car. Absolutely beautiful. So now what am I to do? Do I try and work so much overtime that I try and squeeze a quick 1 week trip in to see this new beast this year, or do I have to agonize until 2010 for my ride at the Ring.SmileySmiley

    I'm glad you were able to get this car, I know you've been wanting this for a while. Enjoy it in good health and I hope to see it sometime in the future.Smiley

            Paralizer, I have a cunning plan, as a paramedic, can't you get on a "driver training course" (just forget to tell your boss the venue is at the 'Ring)....Smiley Think how it would improve your journey times in emergency situations. Don't ask him for a GT3 fast response vehicle, though....Smiley Smiley

    Boah Achim, I've just discovered this thread, fantastic car, many congrats! Smiley

    I would have never thought that a GT3 could look that good in silver, but it looks absolutely stunning with the black stickers. Smiley

    So happy for you, enjoy in good health. Smiley


    BTW, rather long time till spring.. (especially for you)

    Re: I'm in heaven

    Great news, you've bought yourself an icon!!!

    The car looks stunning (no surprise there)! I can't wait to see it in action!

    Just out of curiosity, what's the story behind the GT2 seats, I assume the previous owner wanted something a little more comforatble than the GT3 buckets but more support than the adaptive sport seats?

     100x congrats!!!!

    Re: I'm in heaven

    So Mr. Jeck, when does the Ring normally open up in the Spring? Just out of idle curiosity I checked airfares. There are some decent airfares that could make it possible for me to do a quick 1 week dash the first week of April. Any chance you and the new beast might be headed to the Ring for a little fun during that time frame? Or is that still to close to winter? 

    Dreamcar, if I were to do this you would be obligated to come over that weekend. If I can fly from Yankeeland, you and the 'Queen can make a quick sojuorn.Smiley

    Re: I'm in heaven

    Hi Larry - actually the 'Ring is open all year (depending on the weather Smiley). Did some last laps with the Boxey on Dec 28 - freezing cold, but very nice due to extreme low traffic and I was astonished about the performance of the winter tires (Pirelli Snow Sport) Smiley
    Actually I first will study how to tame the beast in a more safe environment before I bring the baby to the 'Ring and that would certainly not happen on one of those crowded weekends with all the maniacs from all over the world Smiley Will focus on weekdays with low traffic and well organzied trackdays of course Smiley So it's yet a bit too early to decide on a definite schedule. I'll keep you posted for sure Smiley

    I just realized that I still owe you and the Terra Queen Smiley some pics from the 'Ring - dorry for the delay, I was somewhat distracted Smiley


    @ Porker: actually the car was originally fitted with the normal sport seats (which I still have in store). The first owner swapped them for the GT2 seats + 6-point harness Smiley

    This morning it was close to 20°C below zero over here - arrgghhh Smiley

    Thanks Rossi Smiley I first was a bit sceptical as my eyes became used of the sea of GT3s in funky colours at the 'Ring or in Spa, but maybe the classic look will make it a keeper Smiley
    I knew that the special smiley would come from you Smiley

    the Terracotta Queen is back from Switzerland, no thanks to easyjet that left him and his family stranded in Geneva airport - and I know he's up for a visit April - May time., which suits me fine, depending on Builders who hopefully will have finished by then.

    Sounds like weekdays at the 'Ring preferable - quieter with less nutters around.
