Default At the Ring

Just got back from a weekend at the Nurburg Ring for the first time in the S.. Great fun. Thanks to Emil from the Danish Subaru owners club who gave me tuition.

I saw 5 other S's, German and Belgian. One Belgian S managed to spin at Ardenauer Forst but thankfully no one was hurt and there was no damage.

The only mod I've got are the brakes, Mintex extreme pads and Apexi slotted discs very good combination...

I think I'll be going again!

Cool! I'm slightly jealous I used to live about 2 hours from the 'Ring and it was a regular haunt of mine but haven't been for a few years now - except on xbox360 where I am a legend, lol.
