In this instalment from our recent Germany trip, we’ve covered the beautiful medieval city of Tübingen and the amazing Lichtenstein Castle from our base just outside of Speyer/Hockenheim.
Although not exactly a travel article, this was an experience that included travel and adventure… Originally published on a racing website in 2007, we’ve included it here for our readers to hopefully enjoy. We both got to enjoy the experience, but Gail wrote the article. Ride of a lifetime … we’ve heard that expression used before with previous generations of Champ Car and Indy Car two-seaters, and to me it always sounded so cliché – so when I was asked to help promote the Champ Car F1X2 (F1 times 2) two-seater program I promised myself that I would find a more apt description for the experience. Unfortunately I have to admit that there really is no better way to sum it up … it is a thrill of a lifetime … every race junkie’s dream … something you’ll never forget.
