I think this is the best in-car video I've seen in a while (full screen and sound way up)... it's from a Nurburgring race with supercars, e.g., SLS AMGs, Porsche GT3s, Audi R8, and a bunch of other lower race class cars that get past like they are standing still. Awesome speed, handling, sound, and some bad driving by a Mini driver that takes out one of the GT3s.

Thrilling and frightening at the same time... enjoy!!:smile:

That was pretty kickazz.. The Mini Cooper driver should have to pay for that Porsche with that driving.... Great track and a fun car to drive it with on GT5

Yes it is a great track but dangerous too!!

Just had a quick view and the Mini driver probably crapped himself and didn't know which way to go... What would you think with two speeding cars coming either side of you? It's nuts all these different models are allowed together on such a narrow track....

A pic of me on a quieter day!! Driving from the right seat :biggrin:

Sorry, but those cars shouldn't be allowed on the track at the same time. I've been on a course where the speed differences were dramatic and when a car comes up on you that fast when you're exiting a turn it is surprising, much more when they're on both sides of you. Neither driver likes it and it pushes the danger levels to extremes. Class racing is there for a reason.

On a lighter note: Gotta love those paddle shifters, those guys are all over the gators and I sure wish I could drive one of those!

That's part of the challenge/thrill of multiclass racing. The Le Mans series is like that.
 
Wow. these guys are going so fast I thought it was fast forward. Dam 997 slowing people with V8s down.....

Nice. Thanks!

I agree.
On 2010.we had NSX meeting there and it was great.The track is mixture of street and track very narrow with uphills and downhills and we also drive with
weaker car models(all mixed).
 
I would say that's a boatload of corners to remember, but with all that traffic, it's almost like a canyon run, where you have to size up every corner real time and you never get a clean line at race speed. JMHOWTFDIK? :wink:

And Hrant buddy.........red flags? Really? I'll be over to get some of whatever you've got. :tongue: I did see a couple of white flags but didn't see any equipment, so not sure what those meant.

Nevermind the wreck with the MINI......I'm pretty sure had ~6:42s happened to me, at the speed he was carrying through that turn, a little poop may have come out. :eek:
