I think that i got passed by 2 cars on the 310km drive down to the airfield so i guess that you drive either an Bmw 335i or an Bmw e46 touring

Nope....not lying.....and you didn't misunderstand me....but to win you also have to be first over the goal line.....I wasn't......so I lost......

When the video comes you will probably be able to hear me screaming from frustration when I miss the gear shift.......

This was not top speed, but it definitely shows that a touring can deliver..!

Last year you weren't in the correct gear; and this year you were missing shifts. Maybe you ought to dump that thing and get a car with an automatic transmission!! How about an SLR??; or an AMG Benz of some sort?? Or, I know, a 997TT with a stage 4 pkg and a TIP!!

J/K Congaman, I know it ain't easy.

Against the Bentley Continental, the ML was defeated. We were three people in the ML though.
So who won ///M5 or the merc. ?!?!

The RS4 Avant is mine. It´s brand new and I had just driven it 2800km before that race. As you can see on the film, when it comes out, I was very close. If the track would have been just a few meters longer I would have won, probably due to the poor CW on the ML. Would be very interesting to see what the outcome would be when my car has over 10000km on the meter and all the horses are home...

Anyway, great day, great people, great arrangement and GREAT cars. Not least the Carrera GT who played around a lot. Thats a memory I´ll never forget...

Again, thanks Gustav and all the other people making this possible!
