If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.

I was lucky. I didn't get an advertisement. 

That was fun to watch! 
They make it look easy.

John, GREAT FIND!!!
 
Have to admit, that Viper was SMOKING! Never been a fan but the black/silver one does look really BAD A*S! These drivers ARE SO GOOD! Did anyone notice how the shift lever was bouncing all over the place. Couple clunks as well on some of the shifts.
 
The downforce was HUGE. Took it right off the scale!!!!!
 
We will see what the 991 GT3 runs when it's released and I'm sure the ZR 1 will be making minor adjustments!
 
GOTTA DRIVE THIS SOME DAY!
 
Cheers!

Quick update: my brother (who you'll meet this weekend) will be going to the N-ring in November!! His wife is going to Austria on business and he's twisted her arm into letting him tag along and make a vacation out of it.

Greg I sure it will fall, I thought it was interesting the old time I saw for the viper was 7:22.

Cool Kurt, you should see if they need a personal valet Wink

I'm taking my son Brian to Germany next fall/winter to see where he was born and tour around the Fatherland. Nurburgring is definitely on my itinerary.
