Instructional video (kind of): How to trash your car (or Bike) fast and efficiently

in racing •  7 years ago 

Its fairly easy - just take part in the tourist drive on the Nürburgring

The Nürburgring is a old racetrack in a region of Germany called Eifel. Like the tower, only with one "f". Its a rural and hilly region with lots of forest, quiet pretty.
The Nürburgring is basically 2 race tracks: a new section of 4,5 km that is modern and suited even for Formula 1 races, and the Nordschleife, the old original section, which is 20,5 km long, with over 120 turns, long fast straights and lots of up and down, mainly through forest. That gave it the nickname "Green Hell".
Hell, because its very unforgiving and difficult to drive if you try to go fast. The vast number of turns makes it difficult to memorize it all as well. It seperates the boys from the men, so to speak.

All this doesn't stop wannabe racers (especially with 3 series BMWs) to try their luck on the open days, the so called tourist drives. For a moderate fee everybody can drive there, no matter what car or skills you have. Bikers are allowed too.
And thats what comes out if it for some of them:

Note that a few scenes are from competition races. You can see that on the starting numbers on the doors. And on the fact, that the cars are really hot.
But all cars without starting number and with a license plate are private drivers.
