Excellent! Thanks for posting! I'm jealous--I hope to drive the 'Ring someday like you did. Looked like a lot of fun.

Great video. I am doing the AMG academy in Oct at Brno and will be taping as well. Brno is a great track used mainly by GP Moto, WTCC, and Formula 2 series and is not as long nor fast, but it should be interesting to see what she can do there. BTW, can you PM me the names/price of the video/GPS hardware you installed?

Brno is a great track for sure. The AMG Academy does the "Masters Trophy" at Brno too.

The equipment is:

1.) Panasonic HD camera SD Card http://www.panasonic.de/html/de_DE/P...#anker_3412755

2.) Camera 2+3 = GoPro Motorsports hero http://www.goprocamera.com/index.php...2&productid=30

3.) Data Logger = Racetechnology DL1 http://www.race-technology.com/language.php?url=%2F

4.) www.trackvision.net to display the GPS data in a virtual dashboard

Great skills! The video looks amazing - the car must have gotten a beating after a few laps on Nordschleife

Great video, and great driving too. Probably the best Ring video I've seen of an AMG.

How long have you been tracking? How many times have you driven at the Ring?

this was the fourth (4th) time at the ring...about 30 Laps total i think.

This was the 2nd day and even i lowered tire pressure (around 38°C outside temp) the tires were really bad at that point. => lots of understeer

since we couldnt do full laps due to safety reasons you can just calcualte the time.

the bridge to bridge time was ~8:05min ...count some extra 20s for the long straight so the lap time could be around 8:20min to 8:30min

Keep in mind that the competition was about the best line not the best time

Awesome vid. Now I see that Forza did an excellent job of caputuring the feel of The Ring.
