Nice event! Considering how expensive cars are in Norway, I guess it was reserved for super rich people only! :whistle:

Love the 964 Turbo & RS and the 996 GT3 Mk1! :love:

nice video, good sound, on the straight you did it too 8000rpm ? sounds like it, nice pics, but no RS4 on the pictures ?



No not that much, only to about 6500-7000. It is a short and twisty track and you don't get a very high airflow through the radiators and oilcoolers. On nordschleife where you have a much higher average speed, the temp isn't an issue compared. Next time I will try to find a place for the microphone with less wind noise,I had it taped next to the lisence plate, but still too much windnoise, and a bit too much exhaust, had to turn the mic down a lot, and it didn't pick up and low volume noises.

guess an audi family wagon wasn't interesting for the photographers there :whip: Maybe more photos during the winter event they will arrange later this year....will have a skibox on the roof as well then :lol:

Try putting it inside the car in the rear, or under the bonnet behind the firewall with a sock or something around it to take the worst of the high pitched sounds off....

Is it very necessary and good for the front end paint ?
 
A 3M film is more recommended here, because is common to say a bra can change the color of your car if it exposed to the sun and the salt that can be hidden below can rust the hood.  :euh:
 
I'm pretty sure you did your homework before buying the Bra, but I want to beleive that is indeed really good.  :wink:

Know what you mean. The bra is only for use when it is so cold (below -15C) that they are not using salt, but only sand and gravel. Especially when you are going over the mountains you often get stuck behind big trucks and snowplows, can't keep to far distance because you need to catch the moment to overtake :)

did you get your yellow 1:18 RS4 yet?

Ah ok, I understand the purpose now. It's true, me too I hate to been hit by big chunks of sand and small rocks on my car while I follow Snowplows.  :mad: 
I didn't remember that they use no salt in Norway...You're lucky !    :good:
 
Yeah man I got my beautiful B5 RS4 in 1:18. I bought my model directly from Ottomobile ( only 35Euro) 2 months ago. It's a seal model, I mean you can't open doors, hood and the trunk, but its very well made and they respected the real proportion of the 1:1 model. Of course I would liked another color like Black or Red...even silver but don't tell to Marco (PzGren) that yellow is not our favorite color.  :mrgreen:   It's made of resin, so you need to be an expert in diecast model to be able to repaint the car in another color and many parts are glued. At least I have my favorite car in 1:18 !!!  :lala:

only when it is below -15C. rest of the time they use the most corrosive salt mixture in the world! twice as corrosive as sweden and finland. I hate roadsalt!!

The salt mixture they use here is so bad, that with a relative small carpark of approx 2 mill. cars, the salt causes damage to the cars for over € 350.000.000,- a year. The roadsalt is the main reason why cars fail the PKK (MOT/TÜV) Last year they used 210.000 tons of salt on the the main "european main roads" in Norway that are salted.

if it were up to me, I would ban it. It only causes damage, and because only certain parts of main roads are salted, people tend to have a lot of accidents within a few km of where the salting ends. In stead of just driving a bit more careful the whole time, on sanded roads.

The Harlequin theme is totally hideous...but the Hello Kitty brake kits reach summit in terms of disgusting modification. !  :nutz:   :bad:
 
Thanks Thomas for all your multimedia stuffs related with the Ferdinand Ice event. Must be so much fun to do with a powerful car with good traction.  :drive: :good:
