I've never seen someone doing a few laps of the F1 track, then moving straight on to the Nordschliefe. Great video!
Somthing is "off" in that video... the driver is smoking every other car on the track, and he appears to be all over the track. From my perspective, it's not a very smooth line! -Daniel
What car is this guy driving to be smoking everyone? Only the DTM cars stayed ahead of him. What does a Jagaur V8 look like? I'm amazed at the cornering speeds with no tire squeal. I assume he has an awesome suspension and tires. Amzaing car!
This car was a top 10 qualifying car for the 24 hours of Nurburgring. The BMW M3 GTR of ALMS fame won it. I'm not sure if they actually used the old cars, but these did have a V8. edit: I think that the car is a Jaguar S-Type. I also think that this might also be a qualifying lap. Anyone else care to comment on that?
It looked decently smooth to me. Have you seen others go on the Nurburgring? They don't tend to be smooth.

THAT WAS OFF THE HOOK!!!! Man that car was boning out! Then I was surprised when that TT drove past him on one of the straights. I was listening to the sound of the V8 and heard this high pitch noise. I thought it was the gears winding out, but oh no, it was the spooled up twin pinwheels of the Audi. That thing just pulled away from the Jag. I though the Audi was long gone until the Jag caught it on the long top end run. WOW that was a great video! Thanks for posting it.
That was an awesome video. I've read that Gran Turismo 4 is going to have the Nordschliefe. Can't wait.
