That yellow RSR was gone! Hard to believe, that the lap time was 8 plus with such aggressive driving?

This is a much longer lap then the "normal" nurburgring lap. In the beginning they drive on the new nurburgring, the same track as the formula 1 cars race, as they later on in the clip (about 1min 25 sec) comes out on the old nurburgring.

+1, the Nordschleife or North Loop is what every one basis there best time on, this track that they are racing on is both the Nordschleife and the Grand Prix sections of the track. I think that every car nut should drive it at least once.

Thanks for sharing the video.

Thumbs up

Having been to the ring on many occasions, I think that is one of the best most realistic ring videos I have ever seen and is very representative of what its like to go fast around the ring. I loved it and makes me want to get on a plane and head right back there. Great find and thanks for sharing. I believe the yellow RSR might have been the Manthey Racing car.

I have to wipe the sweat off my brow just from watching that video. Great chance to see some awesome racing video. Now if it was only in HD so I could watch on the big screen TV.

That looks like a Turbo the BMW is chasing. It has a wierd wing underneath the big
rear wing like a TT wing. It also has twin pipes instead of center pipes and it has the
TT vents in each rear fender. I thought the RST had center pipes and a bad looking set at that?
Cant let my wife see that, she has a Z4M. She'll start thinking she can kick the GT3 butt!

That was the Manthey RSR. Beautiful with speed to match.
