Default VW T4 Nurburgring Video

Ex AA T4 going for a tootle in the damp...

Music courtesy of the van stereo.

A big lift was needed to let the GT-3 passed on the exit of Schwalbenschwanz .

Not flat out, some mechanical sympathy, but sub 12 BTG.

Hopefully there in September to let the Tiger show her claws...

What the first music track called? I know whet it's from, but which version?

- If you mean the one that sounds it's from a Tarantino film it's by the beach boys, off one of their albums.

Are you doing TF in Septmber? - if so when are you planning on being there?

Tim, a few of us are doing Dover-Calais, then northern France into the Black Forrest early September. Hopefully the 'ring as well, but no exact plans yet.

Been slower! In the van or when it has started raining on the bike.

As for the Ring going bankrupt I've heard/read various reports wrt which operating companies and what this means for the future.

However apparently TF on the Nordschleife will continue to operate in its current guise for the rest of this year (heard from locals on the scene now).
