FAO Mike Rainbowbum....
... Rich PON says that if there is anyone to take a ride with round the nurburgring next weekend its you as aparantly your rather good when it comes to Track driving.
Now comming from Rich the "Spin on the straights" PONmister thats not much of a compliment but still worth a go, so anychance of a passenger ride?

Be prepared to battle it out for a pass lap m8 lol, always seem to have a flock of people round the car when i see him there.
Would be an excellent person to go out with though.

Ive been out round the ring with Mike and he certainly knows the track, good smooth lines and also he made fairly quick progress too, not as frantically quick and exciting as some folk are, but a good fast yet still in control lap
Agree with PON, felt confident that mike knew what he was doing

Having been round the Ring with Mike a few times I can honestly say it's worth the hastle you'll have trying to get in the seat, fucking awesome driver, track knowledge and car (if he's sorted his heat problem by then ).

Been there done that and blew her husband into the weeds with only 1.5 bar of boost (and yes it was the V10 one ). Was fun to watch, but the Ring taxi drivers HATE being over taken . Eventually forced our way past through Adenau bridge and then left him for dead . To be fair he was four-up compared to me being only two up though, but I was only running 360bhp...

PON, we wouldnt have been trying initially, as he was showboating and going sideways and loose lines everywhere etc, but apparently he visibly thightened up when rainbird was behind him, which is something obviously we all do

He wouldnt let you over would he ? Ring rules state anything faster move your as over so he ended up making a mistake with the back coming out and mike storming by

LOL at PON, may I point you to this:
Yes they did, as Jochim was very complimentary about the car and my driving . I believe he gave me the opportunity to pass, by show-boating it through Adenau bridge, as he realised that he was holding me up by the way I was glued to his bumper the whole way round up until that point . Wouldn't pull over though, I had to take the opportunity . If only I had been able to run full boost and do him on the power through Flugplatz, now that would have been funny .
