I had another amazing session at The Nurburgring last week, thanks to Circuit Days. I met up with some mates from Switzerland and Sweden, with a a 10yr old GT3RS and a new 911 GT3CS between them.
We did the Touristfahrten on the Sat eve, Sunday and Monday eve, then hit the track all day Tuesday. I racked up 40 laps in all, and spanked 8 tanks of petrol. The M5 would do a whole tank (6 or 7 laps) without blinking, and never felt tired or had any brake fade. The difference with the Texstar BMW 'M Race Pads' was astonishing compared to stock pads, which I destroyed there last year. Everybody who passengered with me is blown away by the speed and handling of the mighty F10 M5, and folks came up to me afterwards too to compliment the Akrapovic exhaust's huge sound as I hit 180mph at the top of Döttinger Höhe :devil
Here's a couple of pics and some laps from the open pit lane day

And here's a couple of laps with the new app and a crap camera mount, which I have since replaced!
