Difficult to photograph so up close. This is the best I could do:




Yeah, the trophy shelf has another exibit for sure..

After replacing the two rockers by another set of used rockers , the engine ran flawless again yesterday on the Ring.









Also put some video up of the day on a vimeo account:

Well, I did have Cam(bell) from Australia and his girl-friend as a passenger, who were on vacation in germany and this date was set purposely so he (and his GF) could drive a lap with me.
You just have to plan it well (and a bit (actually a lot) of luck with no failures and the weather)
But your very welcome of course.
Just a pity that i couldn't make it last year when Pete was over.

Hi Wally

I'm very interested in trying one of these spy cameras, is the running board footage the only one taken using this camera? Can you post6 a link to other footage?

Steve
