Hi, a fast set of photos from the ringtrip with BN Autoteknik and The TT-RS (420BHP and 670NM) they also have modded:























Brian from BN Autoteknik on the left and our two photographers, Heinrik and Mads with   Sabine   before they took off for the photoshoot from above.



That's the start, i told the photographers to take pictures off all english mk V cars, so as soon as they have sorted the 25000 pictures taken i'll let you know

Thanks for sharing. Nice mood shots of empty track. Looking forward to seeing more..

Here's a few more shots:



A very concentrated driver and aparently looking long into the corner 



I actually overtook those guys

After spending several hours yesterday looking at pictures from the trip, here are some more:  











I'm not sure about this one, i think it might be me  






Thx for looking

Great shots! At first I thought you climbed a tall tree!

Love the smiley side-car pic: A winner - Very amusing.

Unusual angles. I particularly like that long shot of empty road snaking into the distance - I'd crop out the fencing though:



^ Whereabouts is this? - Do you remember? It could be one of several places and it's very typical of the faster sections.

As i'm not the one taken the photos, i'll leave the cropping to the photographers 
I'm quite sure it's taken at Die Flugplatz against the driving direction, i really fancy that photo myself, as you mentioned before, a mood shot 
When are you going next time RR??

....No such considerations for me - I'm a retired Art Director and used to both directing and cropping photos, though ideally a joint decision with the photographer.

Ah yes, approaching Flugplatz from Quiddelbacher with Hocheichen in the distance. German spelling, eh!

Next trip for me? - I'm trying to get it together for end of August on another private Nordschleife trackday like I did with Hurdy in April but he can't make it this time - A room-mate helps accommodation costs plus he's great company. Trouble is I've got TT wishbones and (removable) half-roll cage also on my spending list and they're both ideal for a trackday.

Let me know when you get a date, then i'll try and work it in my schedule, would love to try a track day there so i hopefully can improve my time and get nearer Aparoon's time

....I already have the date: Monday 23rd August, all day. But it's a private trackday not Touristfahrten and costs about £450 plus a €1500 returnable deposit in case of 'Ring damage. I personally much prefer the less traffic and mostly being those who generally know better what they're doing, but that's just my preference. At the moment it's very 50-50 if I can make it.

[danishmkvgti]

I've put a mark in the calendar for that date, last date for commiting to this is RR?
