wanted to share the experience of running the Ring with my RX7 in the 24 hr race twice in Germany.
Finished both times with the S8 RX7 twin turbo i built and shipped from Australia.
You Tube shows a lap, see Ric Shaw Nurburgring.
i now have a new HKS 6 speed sequential gear box for RX7 to sell at half price to a serious RX7 owner.

how much did the whole event not including the car cost you?
I would like to do the same one day.

Thanks guys for the kind words.
Cost to do this event was around 100 k aus.
The crew are great guys with 2 from NZ.
Feb next year we will do Bathurst 12 hr here.
I ran factory HT12 RS type twins on 12 psi at the Ring and now it has a To4r on it with a HKS 6 speed sequential, this is new this box and have driven it once, i will sell this box as we now want to run a synchro box for long distance stuff.
