 For those not in the habit of watching Nurburgring laps, this is a significant lap time.

Wow.

I wonder what time of day he was out there, to have the 'ring to himself...?

Or, how much he paid?

Nevertheless, that is jaw droppingly quick.

Thanks Neil for posting it.

 The Ring is closed for vehicle testing and racing quite often, TF (Touristenfahrten / Tourist Driving) is only a part of Nurburgring GMBH's business.

Longest build time in history?

 Brilliant, seen this a few times, hasn't the ACR Viper and that composite thing with the F20C engine in it?

I think it's gone since then too!

But relly, this video shows you how a brilliant lap, realistically is possible. This really cannot be far off perfect for a lap. It's beautiul!

That's why i love the 'Ring!
