    Me driving the M4 at the Ring last month:

    Sorry for the edit @ the 6 minute mark - I prefer the interior view but the track was stopped after the next hill due to an accident on track so I swapped cams to one lap later.

    This was one of my first times left foot braking at the track after training that way section by section for a couple days. I now strongly prefer left foot braking especially with paddle shift cars.

    Not a record breaking lap, but I hope it shares what the M4 and the Nordschleife are like! BTG time 8:13.6. You can see my speed (in MPH) and gear if you look closely. Hope you enjoy.

    Awesome.
    Very smooth and fast, and patient with the slower traffic (like the VW van at Steilstrecke :)).
    You take a similar line as me through Wipperman, cutting both curbs. From Hoehe Acht to Eschbach is my favorite sequence.

    Mind sharing what the whole BMW course set you back?

    Couldn't hear the voice much through my little laptop speakers, assume it was an instructor riding along giving you feedback/pointers?

    Great video thank you for sharing.

    As for the other video of the almost accident kudos to the M4 driver for barely avoiding it but when I saw the 911s brakes come on the first thought to me was why is he braking so hard here- thats a sign he sees trouble.
