nurburgring

n6aNnZ4q80s How anyone managed to complete a lap without being killed to death is amazing.

With a couple of mates, I took my '86 w126 500SEL over to Germany to see the what I think is the best old car event in the world. The car disn't miss a beat, and we had some spells at 130mph on the Autobahn, which is probably the fastest the old girl has ever been! Still had some more to come...

Make sure you have insurance! OdGzy2Lun2I Not including the air ambulance of course :eek::eek::eek: LINK (or is it total rubbish?)

Have just been reading one of the early C55 reviews in the May 2004 issue of Autocar (yeah I know......), where the author refers to the test car having the 'optional Nurburgring suspension pack fitted'. How would I know if my C55 had this option? Is there anything obvious I can check?? Thanks!

I am going over to Belgium in the near future, close to the German border. It seems a pity to be so relatively close and not nip over the border and have a little mosey round the 'Ring. The question is, as I will have my family with me, are there any issues I may encounter with regard to...

Best W202 shot ever: - Note the W210 door handles :) Matt Black W202 :D

Wonder if anyone can help on this one? I'm off to the ring at the end of the month to do some testing. Whilst I do not have a problem with Insurance, medical, car or track as our company has a full motorsport policy for Europe. On this trip my Nephew who is 30 is coming with me and bringing a...

i am heading to the ring tomorrow, having driven my car long distance for the first time yesterday (london to Trier), and today from trier to stuttgart and then Frankfurt (where I am now). The car seems to be going okay, and cruising at 180kph is quite smooth. But, the temp seems to be...

It had been a wet, wet and very wet weekend ......... typical April weather at the Rhineland region where the Nurburgring nestles. Saturday was the 24hr Nurburgring VLN Championships. Ironically, the weather was perfect. Dry and cool, with plenty of grip. First time I saw proper track prepped...

How long does it take to get to the Nurburgring from Folkstone? Anybody know? Jay:)

Found this bit of nostalgia on Jalopnik. Heroic stuff with all the big names. 4 cars on the front row!!! That circuit certainly was a car breaker. :cool: http://www.jalopnik.com/index.php?refId=287593

As part of a BMW day yesterday, they ran a current F1 car around the 'ring. Unfortunately there were some restrictions: 1. Do not crash / take it easy 2. Demo tyres only 3. Maximum ride height to cope with the bumps 4. Slow down for photos Videos: http://tinyurl.com/yuc32s...

Robbed from another site: Based on the Lamborghini Gallardo, there's no question the Audi R8 is about as close to an Italian supercar as any German vehicle can get. Unfortunately, it seems Audi's V10 R8 prototype has inherited a less-than-desirable trait known to Italian supercars...
