Nurburgring - Porsche from Hell meets The Green Hell

If you know me, I sure love cars and anything with mechanical moving parts has hypnotized me from a very early age. Especially racing cars. Especially ones from brands with true proof-of-heritage - like Porsche. PS3 talk coming up also.

It only took 35 years to finally top Stefan Bellof's Nurburgring lap record - also with a Porsche. One that sounds like it's got aliens inside it - listen to those epic hybrid turbine noises and how suddenly this thing winds power on ... and off. Truly brain melting ... for us gearheads. Also my favorite race track on the planet, I've had some great moments there myself on the playstation, achieving my first sub 10 minute lap took dedication and 10s of laps and a few crashes. Gran Turismo is not a game ... some of you will know. I'm having that track imprinted on my mind, ready for a go on it for real some day :)

The hardest, fastest, longest, most dangerous racetrack (actually a public road) in the world - if you are curious, youtube the Nurburgring. It's a grueling place, and eats n00bs daily. To go around at this speed, how a human can drive like that to begin with .... just watch closely. Don't forget the sound.

OMG

indeed :)

Driving like there is no FUC**NG tomorrow! Hell yeah!! Gray and Green are with us :)

Fuck me! He entered each TURN at the MAX speed possible to enter it, sliding through bleeding-edges to go out.

Complete utter faith in his machinery and commitment ... flying on seat of the pants
