Drove the Nurburgring last month on tour, In a 997 Carrera S Options

[DonTraver]

Went on a 11 day Porsche tour to Germany. Put over 2000 km on the 997S, drove laps on the Ring, hot laps in a Carrera GT at the Liepzeg Porsche Factory, saw Dachau, grim, cruised the Autobahn at 270kph(170mph). Some of the guys say they got up to 305kph, I was in too much traffic so only got up to max of 275kph. The company was Autobahn Adventures, Mark and Tina.

Had a great time, came home and promply got sick, so that's why the late post, I was picking up meds when the 6 got hit. I just downloaded my camera from the trip yesterday. I need to edit them for size and will post later.

Oh yeah, here's a great link to a video of a lap at the ring, 5 laps cost 50 Euro, but remember, 1 lap is 14 miles, 5 laps, about 70 miles, woohoo.

That video confused the crap out of me until I figured out that they are using the F1 track.
I've seen it before, but that was before I knew my way around the track (Project Gotham II & Forza Motorsports).
That is a stellar lap he's showing us!


If you want to drive the track, Forza's version on XBOX is about 99% true to what you saw Mr. Stuck doing in his BMW GTR - which you can drive in Forza, too!
