Hello from Germany - pics of Ferrari's on THE RING

Great pics Bill! How cool was doing Nurburgring? Its one of my favorite tracks!

 

Bill,

Great pictures! I was at the Nürburgring October 8 and 9. Did you see a blue BMW 335i? If so, that was me.

I just realized that we must have been there at the exact same time. Here is your picture of the two 360s:

My picture of those same two cars is attached. Look at the cars next to the 360s. We must have taken the pictures just minutes apart! And to think we were both there from Atlanta, funny coincidence.

The track was amazing. The 335i did well, but the brakes would start to fade after each lap. My best lap time was 8:58, about 1 minute faster than my target time! It was a blast.

Here is my onboard video. In the video I am following a Mini Cooper driven by a retired BMW engineer who was a 4-time racer at the 24 Hours Nürburgring touring car race. He was showing me the best line:

(warning: watching this video WILL cause nausea... it's handheld, and in double speed)
