Time to upload my pics. I didn't shot much on sunday, a little bit more on monday. Also didn't do any fancy photoshop trickery, because of my natural laziness, so consider this as documentary report
 D-Fence and Ford Prefect hiding there behind other's backs.  Taking pics of that bikes race. Before we find there's a way to the roof that is  And that's what those bikes looked like.  Tight race  Other stuff happening on the Ring too...  Adu giving us a ride, we follow Ford's Mini  My car parked on our initial meeting place:  That's another Porsche  Now few random photos from spectating place in Brünnchen  Not a great photo, but succesfull panning, so I show it  Same as above    This looked a bit boring so I went overboard with photoshop  Zakspeed Viper, obviously  Kill meeee, pleeease  F430 attracting a lot of attention  That's all I took that day... Now some other photos related to Ring. This is a hotel I stayed in. Very nice one.  And a view from the window  Next day I went back  All the roads around the Ring are AWESOME too. This has limit 70km/h I think, with pretty steep downhill.. Loved it. Man, they would put 40km/h here on something like that  And what do I see on the parking lot   Mmmmm....  Carbon inside  Huge carbon-ceramic brakes  And carbon spoiler   Those were some italian journalists, shooting for something. They had whole car stuffed with cameras too (if you want to see me being overtaken by it, go watch the video D-Fence uploaded to google in nearby thread ) One other mean looking thing. Notice the lack of windshield  Also stuffed with carbon  Returning from the track.  Mmm, Elise  Elise inside  Mmmmmmmmmm, Exige  Something very weird looking  DB9  Going for a lap  Nice pair  One 4 other S  Friendly looking Alfa   British classics  I overtook the blue one   Very casual cruising   Grüne Hölle  It has very nice painting inside. I want one at home.  Something in the sky.. Plane experts, what is this thing?  I went to see the castle too  But the gates were closed   Yes, closed on Mondays  Nice view nevertheless  8)

The plane is definitely an A-10 Thunderbolt (or Warthog or Silent Killer). Very nice pics, I wish I could have been there but I don't have money atm...

nice pics mxm! how was the rest of your trip??
@alok: did you end up going to the ring on the weekend? I was there on sunday with a bunch of other minis after our meet in Düsseldorf. The weather turned out to be quite nice in the afternoon, not as hot as last weekend (thank god), but completely dry. Today it wasn´t so nice, and I left quite early after doing a lap in the rain...

Lots of pics from the rest too, but it takes too damn much time to go through them... Most of them are from museums anyway, and you somehow overestimate the value of the photo at the time you take it. So I have few hundreds of Merc's, Audi's and everything there was in Sinsheim Posting everything will just be boring.But I'll try to do somekind of report with selected photos soon. |

Silly Germans, stealing our planes.
 Actually, we have a base there, so it may have been our's...And that's a REALLY awesome plane. Sounds crazy and it's essentially a flying gattling gun.  Literally most of the plane is just gun. 
It's being replaced by a JSF variation though as the A-10 is subsonic and kinda old. The JSF however is supersonic and is more versatile.
