I drive the Nürburgring nearly every day on Granturismo 4.

I've done a 6'32.851 lap before in the Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK Race car, my fastest MINI lap was 7'45.283

Visiting the Nürburgring for real is a goal of mine. What better place to wreck your car?

 

Unlike GT4, I think the real 'Ring does have body damage rendering.

 

^zing!

 

What I ment was, if you are going to crash somewhere, you might as well do it with style or someplace famous with some history to it - makes for a better story.

Ex:
"I totaled my car on my way to buy eggs at the store."

"I totaled my car at the Nürburgring around km 13 heading into Hohe Acht at about 90mph."

You can see which sounds better.

 

Yikes. You need to run the Ring with PoppaBear, and hear his Rule #1.

All things being equal, I'd prefer to run the Ring and come away at 100%.

 

nabeshin - I know what you meant -- my comment wasn't a personal attack. . .just a joke with a missing

 

I knew it wasn't an attack. But if you ever do want to make an attack, go ahead, I like laughing at people who take stuff too seriously - especially online.

 

I don't like people who laugh at people who take stuff too seriously online!
I'm offended. Consider yourself reported!

I love this video, I can could watch it all day...

That sound makes me wish I had the R53!

 

Nice video. What's up with all the slow moving motorcycles?

 

A little off topic, but saw this today.

 

What a video! Some of the best car ****.

 

Is that a black cabrio in the rear? (A little hard to tell, so I could be wrong.) And does it look like it was turned away?

 

^^ Could be, look at the time.

 

Yep, track closed for the night. Shame he couldn't make an attack.

 

hope the M3 got a go at it

 

Spotted another this morning:

 

And in a last peek before diving into more important things, we spot a classic:



or let's make that several classics:

 

The original Mini van.

 

Awesome finds!
