There seems to be a strange link between Scandinavia and the Nürburgring. Maybe it's just that there's more petrolheads per capita in Norway, Sweden and Finland, but it seems like BTG has more than its fair share of viking-blooded, ice-drifting Nürburgring addicts.
And what do these guys do in the "off season"? Well, they drive their cars on frozen lakes, drink alcohol and cook dead animals. And now all of us non-Nordic types are invited to join them!

Airborne, fifth gear, throttle pinned, getting ready to countersteer the landing. Respect is due.
It's been a while since the last 'Not the Nürburgring' article. Luckily, Joel showed me this video. Holy crap, I didn't even know that a Porsche GT3 could fit down those vineyard lanes, let alone bomb down them in 6th gear at 140mph! Epic skills and a whole 16-minute onboard rally stage after the jump.
