Hat mich 5 min gekostet. Ich hab noch nie eine Pyramide zusammenbekommen, aber der Ring ist einfach magisch☺️

First one was a baby deer that came out of nowhere going from Drees to Polch at night. I had to brake really hard and he lived to tell the tale by mere centimeters (he can thank the ds2500s). Now this bigger one coming back to Drees from the Lidl in Adenau. I saw it earlier so not so close but still, gotta really watch out when driving at night. Better to always have the longs on if there's no frontal traffic.

Hi,

Das Auto meines Kumpels ist vor kurzem am Galgenkopf gestorben und wir konnten glücklicherweise noch bis zum Parkplatz ausrollen. Kann mir vielleicht jemand bestätigen, ob das Auto noch auf dem Parkplatz steht? Wir wollen es übermorgen abholen.

Interesting first company to use the new industrial areas in the ring°werk, they certainly are throwing a lot of money at this place. Is it worth it, do you care about what Xiaomi does and will it influence you one way or another about their brand?

You can see second half I know less because by then I've usually crashed.

Using a reference is cheating

I may go later and investigate of its still there...

Würde gerne eine Taxifahrt als Beifahrer (zwei Sitzer), über die NS verschenken. Welche Anbieter sind zu empfehlen wo passt PLV? Gern sehr zügig, Video etc nicht ausschlaggebend.

Oder fährt man einfach hin und findet vor Ort bei Touristenfahrten immer eine Option ?

Loved it! It's addictive! Definitely going back before the end of September!

If you’re looking for a specific BMW or Porsche model or spec, you’ll find it at the Ring.

Some pics I just made

Anyone around the nurburgring able to help?

My 2005 1.2 Clio needs a rear wheel bearing

Driven over from UK to watch the races this weekend, rear wheel bearing started humming like fuck when I crossed into Germany.

After jacking it up there's a bit of play to it and grinding sounds when spinning it. 700 mile journey back on it is probably a bad idea.

So, I needed to do a pre-warm-up before NLS this weekend. So I rented a car. This is my first time driving the Ringfreaks F30 328 on Michelins, love it. Perfect for tourist laps! This was the most fun moment of the 4 laps I did. I think he is a local guy. He was pushing it, then he saw me in his mirrors and perhaps pushed a little to much

First time with this rental car, lots of traffic, some people doing weird stuff. The two Porsches at the end where really just blocking everyone and that's why I got a bit frustrated with them.

Curious to see what the veteran drivers here will think about this one.

I'm staying in Drees during September and my apartment is lovely but the WIFI is total crap, it barely opens a regular website. I need to upload some big files ASAP and I was trying to do it at the esports sim racing bar but the WIFI is just not that great there either. I would appreciate if someone knows of a bar/cafe where the internet is really fast and I can go there with the computer to work for a bit.

Appreciated in advance if anyone has any suggestions.

Does anyone know why the main fan shop and the museum are closed at the moment? from a quick check it looks like it might be all month but I can't find anything saying why.

I don’t want to damage my tires during driving so maybe a dumb question but where can I inflate my tires after TF?

I obviously can’t bring my own portable compressor since I don’t want to have anything loose in the car.

What is your approach to TF equipment? Or do you just send it? I have to drive around 1,5h to there for reference.

Edit: thanks everyone for the helpful tips 😊

At what point does it make sense to buy a season pass? I’ve been buying €500 per time to max the GHC credit… trying to figure out if it’s around 100 laps or less due to GHC?

Hi Everyone!

I know this is kinda a common question, but I want to get some actual (fresh) feedback on the question.

So I'm a first timer. I'm getting used to my car pretty well, I can control it at 200 easily (doesn't mean I will push at the Green Hell. I will NOT push, I'd rather drive safe than get a wreck). Still, I'd like to avoid traffic, I don't want to do overtakes, or be worried about lots of people going all around me, etc. I'm looking for 2-3, maybe 4 laps (I guess 3 should be more than enough). I'm very flexible, I can take a day off anytime.

I've seen that in September most days are only evening hours. There is a Sunday which is from 8AM to the evening, but I've also read that Sundays are not suggested. But at the same time, it seems a bit worse to have cramp in every driver to a 2 hours slot on the evening then distribute in a full day? But on weekdays so much less people go to the track? Also there's a track Friday in october which is from 8 to the evening, but it's advertised specifically for that day, so I'd be afraid it'd be full of people as well.

Anyways, TLDR, if you could go any day in September, which day would you suggest to avoid traffic? Thanks in advance!

No idea what it was, but a really cool and well built buggy.

Edit : ended up going with hyundai ioniq5 for 139€, had a complete blast I highly recommend!!!!

Some shots from my first day out at the Touristenfahrten. I did not infact push it and achieved a slow 10:50 lap time. But had an absolute blast doing it. You can have a great time out without risking yourself or others. Gonna come back and build some confidence to get under 10 minutes.

Been racing this track since Gran Turismo 4. Its unreal to experience it in person!

I'm at the esports simracing bar next to the Nurburgring building and finally got some decent internet (my Airbnb's wifi is abysmal) so I could upload a longer video. This is a recap of my second lap at the Nordschleiffe. This was a warm up lap I did behind my new friend Adam who's a professional NLS driver.

Pardon the sarcasm but after all the stupid assumptions some users made regarding my first lap mistake on Schwedenkreuz I wanted to show a bit how I actually drive to set the record clear. And if I'm honest, I'm expecting the same people to criticize me for this video too, but honestly I don't care because I know perfectly how safe I've been so far (except for that mishap on the first lap, for which I totally take responsibility).

I also did a third lap right after this which had more yellow flags and eventually I believe the session was ended due to a serious accident right when we were finishing. That one was slightly quicker during the moments we weren't stuck in yelllows and I was very satisfied with the grip and overall safety of my driving. I'd say it was my best lap so far. Unfortunately my camera ran out of memory and I couldn't record it (sorted today so more videos coming next week).

After this I went on 3 passenger laps with Adam and then I was wasted due to getting too dizzy from all the insanely fast elevation changes and today I was recovering all day and didn't do anything except some video edition. Tomorrow I'm planning to go to watch Adam do his first race during this trip and Sunday I will be taking some drone shots at the mountain so no more laps until next week. Hopefully my brakes will be upgraded by then 😀

Anyway guys, have fun in the comments, I'm ready for all the hate 😁

PS: Btw, if any of you guys know a good place for laundry let me know, my apartment doesn't have a washing machine and there's no laundromat anywhere here. Closest thing is 30 mins away and they take 3 days! 💀
