Wow... that guy is on the edge !

Thanks for the "fix".... that guy is flat out, full throttle.... amazing

Steve's car is about 30 mph slower top speed than that car.  

Vergers drives the SR8 car well and knows the track.  Other than some fairly minor mistakes it was a decent lap especially on the crappy street tires.

 

 

THE OFFICIAL NORDSCHLEIFE LAP RECORD VIDEO- NOW WITH DATA STREAM! On 19 August 2009, Radical Sportscars from Peterborough, England, successfully smashed the Nürburgring Nordschleife Production Car Lap Record by eight seconds, with racing driver and 'Ring expert Michael Vergers at the wheel. The new SR8 LM's time of 6m48s beat a record that has stood since 2005, also set by Radical in a previous-generation SR8. The record attempt was witnessed and confirmed by both the UK's evo and Germany's Sport Auto motoring magazines. To confirm the car's road-legal, production car status, the car was driven from the UK to Germany for the attempt, using the same road-legal Dunlop Direzza tyres for both the journey and the record.

Not Steve's style. He will just buy a faster car. I expect him to show up with an RS Spyder anytime now.

There is only one Nürburgring. Well worth the trip.
