I have to say, as an avid tracker with instructor status, the Nurburgring IS NO JOKE.. its HARD, you cant see turns, u go down huge hills, you go up hills, you have parts you can jump, You can Die. in fact , A lot of people have already died. It was the most fun ive had in a LONG time, but shit you have to be careful.. Blind curves at 100mph one wrong move and say goodbye to your car.. It takes about 100 laps before you actually have an idea where the next turn is and where you are going..its long and takes forever, and its expensive, 70 euros for 4 laps..

It was awsome.. i def recommend everyone do it once in their life.. wooot
Which is why you should get the annual pass for 800 euros - gives you unlimited laps for one year. And yes, it does take a long time before you get an idea of how the 'Ring goes - I've gone past the 1000 mark in laps now, and still there are bits that catch me out if I'm not concentrating 200%

Oh, and to the OP
- grow up.
And remember that if you crash on your way round the 'Ring, assuming you don't kill yourself given you are such an 'expert' driver on the dangerous roads in Canada, remember to leave enough room on your credit card to pay for the damage to the Armco (which runs at roughly 1500 Euros per metre), the fine for shutting down the 'Ring (which can run into thousands of Euros if you really mangle the Armco up), oh, and you also have to pay for your car to be craned and trucked away. That's before the repairs to your car, and possibly yourself too.... Unless of course you end up in a box due to your ill-considered, disrespectful, childish, immature, arrogant, and uneducated attitude towards arguably one of the most dangerous circuits in the world - then I guess it wouldn't matter as you'd have other things on your mind... Oh oops, perhaps not in that case.

this was his question to the forum:

"Would anyone here date a women with a big nose? Does anyone here find women with big noses unattractive? I discovered that women with big noses tend be single."


this kid is not all there...a few cans short of a six pack!

Don't forget his thread about how his next car will be a Ferrari 430 Scuderia.

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=115387

He just dreams big. No worries. Perhaps a bit delusional...but he has dreams.

We just got to resist the urge to piss on them...

In a modern fighter jet, with its afterburners at top speed.... one can imagine... although it'll take a lot of skills and G forces. Less than 5 seconds is really tough for today's fighter jets.

I have decided not to conquer the Nürburgring. Some might already know that I am a Christian from the religion forums postings. I don't find what I've posted on this thread shows that I am much of a good Christian and I am sorry to those who find my posts to be unrealistic and arrogant. Safe driving.
