Red Bull Ring
« on: June 08, 2011, 02:38:21 am »
I know most of our lot are in a field in the Pays de la Loire right now, but was watching some DTM highlights from the recently re-opened Red Bull Ring, formerly the Osterriechring and A-1 Ring.  Looks like during the rebuild they've incorporated a good bit more of the old O-Ring, than when it was known as the A-1 Ring.  This is something for us old timers to feel very good about.  The Osterriechring was one of the truly great F1 venues of the 70's & 80's, and the sight of racing cars hurling through the Styrian Alps is a lovely thing.

Have they deer-proofed it?
I stole DelBoy's lighter and lived to tell the tale.

Hey Chop, long time no hear from.  Oh Crap! Completely forgot about that episode Stefan had.  He was lucky he didn't end up like Da Matta after the Road America collision.  At venues like that gotta keep a eye out for Bambi, (especially if she's a leggy blonde dancing around a pole in a local nightclub  ;))
