Nurburgring Lap Times
One of the best ways to experience the Nurburgring Nordschleife is in a private event or trackday. It's also one of the safest ways to time your laps. Without the pressure of a real race meeting, but with fewer dangerous traffic 'moments' than in touristenfahrt.

Just a few photos from the pitlane of the Gran Turismo Nürburgring event. Today was the second day of the three-day supercar extravaganza. I could only get down for my lunchbreak today, but while many of the participants were enjoying a buffet over at the Dorint, there was still an amazing array of metal on display...
Things I'm jealous about this week...

I expect zero sympathy for my pangs of jealousy, but I thought this small thing was worth sharing. I'd love to tell you the name of the gentleman showing me his iPhone and Harry's Laptimer readouts, but my simple English brain couldn't understand the complicated Swedish syllables...
Awesome or ridiculous?

This is a Westfield version of the famous Lotus 7. If you think an R500 is fast, let me tell you that this white monster has almost double the horsepower. It's powered by a built-up Cosworth motor and offers the kind of acceleration normally only available to people who wear Ray Bans and inflatable underwear. And call each other names like Goose and Maverick.
It's a what engine in a what car?!

I love cars, I love engines, and I love the Nurburgring. So this Full-HD video pleases me greatly indeed. But what's really amazing about this video is not the tidy driving or massive dildo gearchange - nope it's the swapped engines powering each car...

At the same time as the Viper ACR edition swiped the Nürburgring Nordschleife production car lap record, BTG also snapped some pictures of this slick-shod Viper ACR-X. It turns out that this was even faster, though it's status as a 'production-based' customer race car means it can't claim any records. Shame, as it's a tidy lap at a fairly crackling pace!
