Lap in the Hertz Focus estate ring taxi 4 up is here: http://crowspeed.net/videos/ringtrip06/ring_may_06_focus.mov (warning slightly scienic pace)

Had a great weekend, if slightly fustrating! A stone went through the Elise's radiator on Thursday evening on the second lap of the weekend. We spent all of Friday in garages and on the phone to AA brakedown and the car is being recovered home (in anywhere up to 3 weeks time!) as there were no parts in Germany. The AA through Hertz lent us the Focus which was dire slow, but we grew quite attached to it! 3 days and 1200kms later we gave it back in Dunkerque slightly worse for wear...

nope driven round all weekend at a slow pace, crashed the other side of ex muhle. There was a group of them going round in a 3 car convoy, knightmare to pass, Check the above pic, i thought he was gonna come across in front of me on the run down to Pflanzgarten. There was one dutch guy, who was seriously quick in one of em though, and some uk ones that were fair shifting

They were still circulating the track come 19:00 Tuesday evening!

Must be pretty reliable to take 4 days of solid abuse.

I was at the ring too this weekend with a bunch of Renaults.
I saw your Clio's gor round the track a few times, looked very good.

I also drove one lap in my old Daihatsu Charade, which was absolutely ace, because I tried to get round the track with as much tyresqueel as possible.

Check the mudflaps scraping.
