Volvoson Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 I never really appreciated how fast your car was until seeing this video! Also, great lines on the Ring, it shows that you've done it before ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volvomachine Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 why are you the only one of the track willing to really haul ass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCviggen Posted May 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 I wasn't the only one, but because cars are going through the gates with some interval between them, you are unlikely to meet cars that are within 10-20 seconds of your own lap time. You only meet the pretty slow ones that lap a minute or several minutes slower. If you watch onboard vids that the slow cars make they get blown past by quite a few cars every lap :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you watch onboard vids that the slow cars make they get blown past by quite a few cars every lap can anyone hop on the track or do certain things have to be done?

JCviggen Posted May 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Your car must be road legal, insured and basic traffic rules apply. As far as speed is concerned it's technically unrestricted Autobahn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon_R Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Sorry to hear that Jan, it gave you one last good run. At least you can say it went out in all its glory Now, get that motor built and sleeved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackT5 Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 It sucks, but it sounds like you were somewhat expecting it to happen. I'm interested to see the cause of the failure. Car sounds badass on the track though, sounds just like mine. I love hearing the big turbo spool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
