AW 135i on the Nurburgring video on Youtube!

Citizen Z · 06-02-2008, 08:12 AM

This Sunday I took the 200 mile jog over to the Nurburgring. Four laps only cost me 70 euro and I took a digital camera video of the last lap. I wedged the camera on the passenger side head rest and it held fast very well during the 10 minute lap. Top speed was 186kmph, average speed was 107kmph. A time really is inconsequential since there isn't a Start or Finish point without adding the Grand Prix portion but for a Touristenfahrten run at around 10 minutes, it was slow. Sabine Schmidt did a faster lap in a panel van on top gear.

I know the controls are right on the steering wheel but I was kinda focusing on driving and all that gear changing stuff.

Very fun video! Thanks for posting it.

Anybody else know the Nordschliefe from doing it on video games? PGR3 gave me my N'ring knowledge.

I'll check this out when I get home. The Tube is blocked at work, unfortunately.

I've e-driven the Nurburgring at least 100 times between Forza and PGR - but I still feel white knuckled just watching other people's videos and my experiences going off the track because I either brake too late/come in too hot in a turn.

I do know the track quite a bit in virtual world though :biggrin:
