me and the 370 at francorchamps

[Vegitto-kun]

So I went to my first track day. Instant francorchamps and it was freaking brilliant. They always say its one of the most beautifull tracks in the world and they are right. It is just stunning.

First half was quite sucky, only did one lap and the track was soaking wet and VDC saved me quite some times + I sucked not knowing the lines .

But in the afternoon it dried and it was just godawesome. in the beginning I was doing 6 minutes a lap but in the end I was doing 3 minute laps, ok it might not be the fastest laps but it was awesome.

end result was tires all sticky, melty and shiny. The front tires had wet spots of molten rubber and strings of rubber.

The temperature was quite high though. I was lucky that I was just below the "bleh too high REV LIMITER LOL" temperature.

My dad's GT-R needs new tires completely gone.

there were several crashes most being porsches and BMWs. Saddest crash was this beautifull jaguar oldtimer.

I lack pictures of me on the track but there were plenty of people taking pictures so il find them eventually.







There were plenty of expensive cars too.

It is pretty scary taking a turn while there is a fricking murcielago next to you.

I did have a rolling start race with a murcielago and a V12 vantage.

I lost quite hard

in my final lap I really was giving it hell. I was semi sliding through every corner but the nanny kicked in. But yeah I didn't want to risk anything on my first time on the lap with 120.000+ dollar cars all around me. I mean I know what already happened with a GT-R, some young brat's parents bought him a GT-R(he is 24) and he went of the track twice but I survived and in my final lap I beat 2 elise S in the corners.

first time he banged up his backside quite hard. the left two pipes were pushed in with the bumper but the nissan technics let him continue after checking it. second time he ****** up his front bumper. He is the one with the 911-bye plate.

Is it bad that I laughed out very loud when I saw a damaged 911 turbo and M6?

In total there were about 14 GT-Rs and 4 370s and about 8 350s.

And I wasn't suprised about the number of GT-Rs there because about 3 months ago the dealership already delivered 55 GT-Rs.
