Default C7 z51 Nurburgring

Well, i couldnt resist and decided to upload a vid i have via phone (i just moved to germany and dont have internet at home yet). So this is my second fay and 4th lap with c7. There was a ton of traffic and an accident. I font have rotor cooling rings installed and dont have brake ducts open in the grill :/ plus i had a 200pd passenger and AC on. I think a sub 8 lap is in the near future on a stock car.

Nicely driven kotik.

Had a rental car loose on here last April. Would have been a lot more fun in the Beast as not that many cars on the track at the time.

The track was a lot smoother than I expected. More skid marks going in every direction than you could ever count. Most of them made it to a guardrail. Some were on perfectly strait stretches of track.

Video doesn't come close to conveying how intense this track is when your running with other cars of such different speeds. it's like Autobahn meets rollercoaster. The great majority of the track is going up or down. Many of the turns are blind on entry or exit. I had a car go round the outside of me making a play for a turn... with two passengers.

Loved it!
