Video of a full Nurburgring lap in a RUF Porsche

Scott Rixon posted an in-car video of a Nordschleife lap in a RUF Porsche driven very sideways. Viewers marvelled at the driving, while Laurens de Jong identified its source and noted that sections were missing, and daxe suspected it was edited from several laps. Others shared tips on making video CDs and links to more Nurburgring videos.

I have just posted a WHOLE lap of the Nurburgring! It is in a Porsche. The driver is throwing the car all over the place, loads of tyre smoke!!! It is lap2.. I have lap1 and when my ISP sort out my web space I'll post it. I should have 50mb but for some reason I only have 25mb! Let me know what you think! I think it is the best lap I have seen yet. www.sjrixon.clara.net Scott
I'm living in Germany and have absoved serveral rounds at the Green Hell. With my VW Polo it takes about 10min56sec. I'm searching for a long time for a good video. I would be very happy if you could post it. Happy Racing Martin Schmitz

Holy cow!! I thought that Porsche GT3 movie was great, but this movie really shows some wild driving! Look at that baby drifting :) Where the hell do you get these great movies from? Was this from a Porsche demotape or something? More! More! More! :) (Today I received the Nine days in Summer tape, also very nice footage from '67 races) Andre >>www.sjrixon.clara.net >> >>Scott >> >> >>

Speaking of this, how do I put all of these films on a CD to be played on my DVD ? Do I have to convert everything to mpeg1 format ? if yes using which software and then burning them with nero using the video cd option ? I have the inboard video of Senna's crash in Imola 94 if you want it I can send it.

Well no, when this video was made, the start/ziel was still at T13, between Hohenrain and Hatzenbach. Antoniusbuche, Tiergarten, Hohenrain are missing from the RUF video. (The lap was taken from the promotional RUF video "Faszination N�rburgring") -Laurens de Jong.
> Let me know what you think! I think it is the best lap I have seen yet. I think the guy is a complete nutter! How the hell can anyone even consider doing all that without a rollcage or even a helmet? This is an amazing clip!! :-) Bobby
Damn straight... way beyond anything I'd consider doing without the full Nomex, helmet, rollcage and Recaro seat thing happening (not mention racing slicks). Totally amzing to watch though... nice line, only missed a few apexes despite hanging it out like that. Jan. =--- Bobby wrote...

Totally amzing to watch though... nice line, only missed a few >apexes despite hanging it out like that. I dont think this is a single lap. It appears to have been edited somewhat. probably from multiple laps where the best pass at any given part of the circuit was used. At around 6:00, an outside view shows the car coming up on a slower vehicle, then switches to an inside view and the vehicle is no longer there. ~daxe

Are there still any other sites to download movies from the Nordschleife ? I have downloaded all the videos and they are very good. What hardware do I need for making such videos ? I have a HI8 Tape with a Mercedes 280E built 79' driven by me. Cause of bad tyres it is approx. 11.45. It was also my first round. No I would like to digitalize it on my computer. The qualitiy is not as good as from these getting on the net. Thanks for help Martin Schmitz

Wow. Either a RUF CTR is the shittiest handling car in the world, or it's been slowed down. Does not look like he's going very fast at *all*, and the way he takes the corners seems so shit.

He's obviously hanging the tail out on purpose to show off his car control skills. He's also going pretty damn quick despite his slideways style. Lap 1 looks to be complete with a lap time of 8:25 which is quite fast. At the Nordschleife anything under anything under 9:00 in a street car is very good. Jim C.

Hmm.. I thought Izzy was trolling.. Andre
In my opinion the lap with the RUF Porsche is realistic. I driving myself and I know there are some people drifting whenever possible. Are there still any other video on the net ? Lap 2 of the RUF would be great. Thanks Martin Schmitz from Germany
