Off the Corvette forum.
This'll give you a glimpse of the way I drive on the track. http://www.mpactmotorsports.com/albums/vid...nurburgring.wmv (I wish) Steve |

Why can't we build a track like that over here? I'm sure there is plenty of real estate in one of the 'empty' states in the Midwest!!
I thought it was all over about half way through the lap, when he hit the rumble strip and the cameras went out of focus! |

Man, he hit sixth at least once on a very long straight. Mega fast. Could've been faster if the red porsche got out of his way.

Whew...I'm outta breath just watching...
I wonder what he was doing on that lap, qualifying? He looked really pumped once he crossed the finish line. QUOTE Why can't we build a track like that over here? Well, GM built a proving ground that kinda mimicked the Ring. I know, it's no good for us, the public. |

Can't wait to see this video....but 52meg on dial-up. Good thing I'll be staying in a hotel with hi-speed tonight. I've seen some crazy videos of a RUF Yellow Bird at the Ring. I probably have it burnt on a cd somewhere.

That's a good way to remind me that the definition of "novice" is much broader than I realized. :stupid:

AWESOME!!!! You better have a good memory to drive that track at the limit for an entire lap.
Get the Game Grand Prix Legends and you can drive that track. Incredebly accurate. Steve |

That video is AWESOME! It makes me think, "oh shit, he's gonna crash!", but then I realize I'm not watching a vid of my driving...

I saw Hans Stuck in 91 driving in DTM in South Africa. His car placement and shift points (always within 1 foot) were amazing. Looks like he lost none of his touch.

As stated b/4, search engines are great!!! Try using 'em rather than relying on others!!!

I wish that video had telemetry, I would love to what the car was doing.
Was that a clutchless trans or is he that much of a bad ass? |

Whoops wrong class . It is not a seq shift . Kinda think of it as a 6 speed Jerico but made by BMW. Dog engagement gearbox with straight cut gears.

Wow,
I would hate to have to share the track with him. I wonder if he sucked the windshield out of any of those cars he passed, he made it look like many of them were parked not racing. I get tired of BMW posers with their fog light on on clear nights. Pretty clear that there are some real BMW drivers out there. Z28 |

AARRRGGGHHHH!!
After over 5 HOURS downloading this friggin file ( at a max of 2.4 kb/sec), the zip was corrupt! I simply can't endure the wait again. (Stop Laughing, I'm on 28k dialup!!! It is a bit rural down here!) What??....Oh...You mean I don't have to sit and wait for it to download? I could leave the desk? I could actually go to bed and it would still load? By itself? Hmmph! I think I'll try it... (and to think I've been accused of being a control freak!) Tony |

Go to FastDrives site for some great video. That's were this was first posted, about a year ago. Downloading may be easier from here, as well. A lotta Euro stuff, but I've put a couple SWC race videos up, too.
