Refresh your browser and look at my replay again!

Just one lap! Get all the way there and just one lap - O, common!
In addition, you drop your car on 22 and fly away on 25.
There 2 full days that you make a one day trip around Munich!

Hahaha. Thanks I saw your characters finally. Good point! Will make several laps around the ring.
I was planning to spend several days visiting Munich at the end. Or would you recommend more driving routes instead?

Sorry for delay, was pull out for some nonsense meeting.
You got such a sport car in your hands, that was design to drive on this autobahns, with speed, that will be never legal in US. Use this chance - drive like crazy for 2 days.
Drive from Munich to Salzburg, Austria. Spend lunch and afternoon there and drive back. It's only 2 hrs (145 km) on A8 and get back to Munich for evening.

You are absolutely correct. I was just worried about too much driving but on the autobahn it will definitely be a lot more fun.
I was just thinking about adding Salzburg too.

You will sleep on fly back home (if you can sleep on planes - I can't ) - you fly home on Saturday - plenty of time to relax.
DRIVE! DRIVE! DRIVE!
You will tell me 'Thank You' later, after you get back.

Hey Time89,
I was reading some of the other posts. Looks like I'll get a umwelt plakette sticker in the packet.
I also plan to go to Salzburg, Austria (at your recommendation) and drive on the Grossglockner High Alpine Road, how do I get the sticker to drive on autobahns in Austria?

Thanks!
