More drama!
Just had a phonecall from Si-B, his evo is going to be a lot harder to spot on the camera now, he has had to swap onto a normal set of wheels as he has cracked two of the powder coated yellow ones, lucky he noticed during inspection and they didnt actually carry on to completely fail!

Are they Mag or Alloy then? Must have hit them hard!

Shame about Si's rims! I've seen them on his car at combe so they have probably taken a proper beaten before the 'ring trip, But as Micheal says, They shouldn't do no matter how cheap they are!

Looks like some fun's been had 
The Germans (as most of europe) have a bank holiday on the 1st May and the 8th May. They have the day off on the day, not on the nearest monday as we do.
That often means that if the day happens to be a thursday (as the 8th was this year) or a tuesday, most will take a long week end as a result.

OFFICIAL UPDATE:
The Ring is a lot quieter today so more laps will be possible. Stu @ MSD is very happy with his current lap times in the M5. He has bettered his previous lap times from last year which is great news.
The official NW Spokesperson also claimed that Wills bum is still on full display (buy a new belt mate....lol)
More soon...

Si B was saying on the phone that MikeR was absolutely flying and even people used to fast cars at the ring were gobsmacked about how well it was going, so its a real shame to hear that

Not what you would expect from such a quality manufacturer.
dont suppose they will know till they get it back if its a manufacturing fault or if it was an engine building fault.
Either way, shit luck for mike
