http://www.schoolboost.com/4Mark/joerund-van.avi this is also worth a laugh! Driven by the great Joerund Seim, one of the fastest bikers on the ring, who sadly died at Brunchenn in 2002 to the absolute dismay of anyone who met him, or watched him bike videos. David

Search yahoo for "GT3 7:45 Nurburgring" a nice lap by a ringer called Anders, fast smooth faster than the crappy RUF video, proper lines (very good), smooth, clean and commited round the whole corner, unlike the RUF driver! I had some fun at the ring last September in an AVIS hire car, only a 10m30s but then only 120HP Diesel Megane ;o) Think Andi Wilke enjoyed himself in his Opel 1.1 Corsa :o) I seem to remember him leaving 2mins before me on our first laps and I nailed him just before Brunchenn ;O) Bloody great day, half the hire car tyres gone in 7laps, few good moments on the curbs etc, perfect weather, quiet monday. I shall be heading back this summer! you know you can store your Dedicated Ring Toys at Ring Racing for 40euro a month ;O))))) David "Andre Warringa" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

No problem, Andre - glad to help...<g> Maybe ONE of these years I'll be able to afford to go to Germany and see the track. Hopefully before I get too old to DRIVE on it..

You're welcome to stay here in Europe Eldred. I'm sure you'll have fans everywhere who'd let you stay the night. (In return, allow me to feel mighty jealous after seeing the photos of you burning rubber IRL around Laguna Seca...) I've driven the Ring once, but make no mistake - driving it is dangerous, and many hobby racers have already been killed there. If you drive it fast, it's just as dangerous as in races of the past - no track marshalls, no ambulances, etc. If we put crosses along the track where anyone was killed in driving it fast, like Monza, the place would literally be one big graveyard. (One of the best Net movies I've ever seen about the Ring, beside Ringmasters, was the 'GPL vs GT3' movie BTW - where in the upper half you see GPL's Lotus and in the lower half, a 400 bhp GT3, both from the cockpit. Apart from the lack of trees in the GPL version, the similarities are uncanny.) Regards, Rudy (GPLRank -21)

Some interesting links (in German) here: <http://www.944-fans.de/Nordschleife/vorsicht/vorsicht.htm> and here are the professional drivers that risked too much: <http://www.pro-steilstrecke.de/tragoedienhaupt_.htm> The weirdest case is that of Erwin Bauer (1985, Ferrari 250 TR) who didn't see the checkered flag and then crashed fatally AFTER finishing the race... l8er ronny

No, the *pictures* are nothing special.

Huh? I just clicked the same url *again* and it works just fine.. I even get the movie playing directly in my browser window. Maybe it's a DivX codec? Anyway, the file *is* there, really... Regards, Rudy (GPLRank -21)

I had gotten a 'page not found' type of error before. I think certain forces in the univers are just conspiring against me right now. I must have pissed off someone in a previous lifetime...

Ooh, I have a long way to go before I even get THAT close. I don't think I'm within 10 seconds in the BRM. >(BTW, were the setups I sent any better for ya?) > Haven't had a chance to try them yet.

LOL! - That's probably faster than I drove it ;)... Thanks for the link - it was great! Man does that make me want to go back *soooo* bad! I wonder if I should just enjoy the memory - telling my brother all about it (he road races motorcycles) - the mix of vehicles, no run-off or flagging - he thought it was *nuts*! Too bad about the driver, though :(. Kendt
