Forget the lame IRL for 10 minutes, and look at something cool!

Sabine Schmitz's web-site: http://www.sabine-schmitz-motorsport.de/index2.html

I would love to get Sabine to race against Danica. How about at Long Beach in the Pro-Celebrity race? :laugh: :cool: :thumbup:

Dang, when you said Sabine, I was hoping you meant her:

Do they let anybody who wants to drive on that course? They weren't even wearing helmets in the video.

0-60 in 21sec and only 1/2 minute behind is pretty impressive. That thing must have felt like a pig.

Most of the time the track is rented out to manufactures, German race series or racing school/ track days, but they do have tourist days. Most of the tourist days are on the weekends or after 4 pm. You pay $15 a lap with any road league vehicle and go at it. If you crash, you have to pay to get a tow and any damage you cause to the track. Once in a while you'll see a tour bus out there driving around with tons of crazy Germans on bikes and a few Porsches and Ferrari's. The best car I've seen at the Nurburgring was a Porsche RSR, GT racing Viper, a Nissan Skyline and Ferrari F40.
