Nurburgring Touristenfahrten on 12.10.08 and 13.10.08 with BMW M3 (E92)
Spent the long weekend down at the Ring. On Sunday the track was supposed to open at 0800 but due to heavy fog, it didn't open until around 1300. I was only able to get one lap in due to the large number of people who turned up. I found out real quick that the PS2s are no good on a partially wet track and had to turn down my aggressiveness in some of the corners (basically where ever the track was shaded, it was wet and slippery). Monday was much of the same, parts of the track was still damp, took it easy. Enjoy the videos. See you at the track next year!

Ha, I was there too but I had to leave right after the track opened, as my rental was due for return at Munich airport at 6pm on Sunday. What a wasted morning with the fog; I have 11 laps left on my ticket but I am moving home Friday so I won't get to use them. I was suspecting it was going to be crazy for the first hour or so after things got moving, as it was I could barely get out of the parking lot to leave there were so many people waiting to get on track.
Nice laps, btw. The car sounds great! Where were you parked? I only recall seeing the white M3 with the Hamman stuff on it over by the ticket shed, and another white one behind the Ring-taxi stand. |

Awesome pics and video, thanks for sharing. I love that place.
8:44 BTG with a speed zone. Excellent time. You bested me by 2 mins. Of course I was in a 95hp Benz B-class on snow tires. Is that a stock exhaust? If so, it sounds very nice. Because it's an American Spec car. If he was to buy a Euro spec car and then bring it back to the states after his tour in Europe was complete, he'd have to pay out the butt to get it up to American specs.
