nightmare at bitburg, 2006
we are back home from the bitburg survival weekend. fucking cold temps, heavy rain and nice wind if you're a windsurfer - not a drag racer...
friday and saturday, there's no races but familiar bbq's with the buddies gero and the "gallier".
today, very cold but dry - competiton could go.
we tested the new installed launch control and want to get an indicator for the actually gear ratios. so we set the throotle on 80% of max. flow and the shift point about 400 rpm down the race set up.

so we did 3 runs and damaged another gearbox this season - anything is wrong on a bearing, so the final testrun on racecondition wasn't possible :-(
