    Nordschleife last Week

    Hi guys, I just wanted to share my Nordschleife run last week.
    I think with a little more practice (it was my first day on the Nordschleife) and an empty trunk without tools and Luggage (spare wheel alone weighs 14 Kgs) I might be able to go sub 9:00

    Thank you for the ride, Uli! One of the better ones I have seen. I have done a fair amount of laps down there and the videos never show how steep the track is. By the way, your tires start to scream, almost before entering the curves

    Very smooth and excellent signaling to faster traffic. A great tutorial!

    Yes there was some confusion during the day with (potentially) faster cars (like e36 M3 or Mini John Cooper Works) behind me that didn't want to overtake but rather look at my tail.
    But once they put their indicator right after I put mine on I knew what was going on..

    Definetely yes.
    We had forecast for moist to wet weather so I went conservative on the rear swaybar.
    I think I'll keep that setting even for dry usage it isn't as spectacular but really fast.
    Normally I have a stiffer rear swaybar setting making the car a bit more drifty for normal usage - on the track with less it's a bit faster and safer.
