I had the chance to ride in a Veranstaltergemeinschaft Langstreckenpokal race car at the Nürburgring. The car was a 3 series BMW. Not the fastest car, but it braked and turned great. We were on track for an hour and made 5 laps. I recorded one of the laps.

I also took a few pictures from the car.

If you get the chance I highly recommend going to Nürburgring. It may or may not be the best race track in the world, but it certainly is an amazing place and a hell of a lot of fun.

Awesome man. I made a couple laps last month myself. I even got to see someone crash directly in front of me:

As I am sure you know that track has no runoff room. If you make a mistake you are into the armco.

What car were you driving?

I did four laps last year and it was a blast but someone wreck every lap and one not far in front of me.
