DTM Pics Brands Hatch 2 July 2006

[machasm]

Hi all,
Just thought I would give something back to the forum which has given me so much.

A great day out though temps were around 34 degrees!

A special thanks to Graham (Grav888) for getting both myself and a friend in to the pits. Thats where most of the pics are from.

Thought that would be enough for starters.

If anyone wants to see the race it should be on SKY sports 3 July 9th at 6:00 p.m and again on Sky sports 2 at 10:00 p.m on the 10th July.

they're fantastic!!! would love to see them in action. last time was at donnington with the 190 evo's and I thought they looked good. i'll have that clk63 when my numbers come up THANK you very much

I was thinking the same thing about the CLK but I don't play the lottery.
Looks like I am going to have to start.

Second pic down, looks as if Greame has been there and fitted his Emags for fuel efficiency

Glad to have been of assistance Adrian Did you manage to see the E63 estate in the paddock as well?

Do I feel guilty about reporting Hakkinen for overtaking under a yellow flag?
No, well maybe a little (as he did give me a signed Mercedes flag that was on his convertable on the parade lap:bannana: :bannana: ), but rules are rules

I missed the E63 d*mn!
That is a very agressive track. It has cambers and dips all over the place.
Must be hell on a bike.
The dip at the bottom of Paddock must fling a few riders off. All the cars were bottoming out there. It has to be re-surfaced pretty regularly.
Can't wait until August 6th for WSB.
See you then Graham.
Mac.

Hi Blassberg,
The bucket shot was taken first thing in the morning before the stand had opened. The guys there were still cleaning before opening time.

The last but one photo is just a pic of the rear quater of the CLK63 and is just light reflection.

Thanks for the compliment Pammy.
Was just trying out my new Sanyo Xacti VPC6 camera.
Maybe we might see you at the WSB?
