If you are lucky, you can book a ride with this gentleman in a V10 M5.

He is this seasons new Ringtaxi driver.

edit : spelling

He had one heck of a "moment" at the Mini-Karrusell past Schwedenkreuz.

[DocJock]

You can drive that very circuit (NS + GP) this coming weekend, for the normal Touristfahren price.

Obviously, you will start/finish on DHohe, so no vmax down the straight.

As a follower of the church of speed, I found that sermon most refreshing.

That was seriously fast, I suspect the "more than 400bhp" figure for te M3-GTR means significantly more than 400bhp.

I viewed the video side by side with Derek Bell in the Porsche 956. They basically run together unil Stuck get caught up by trafic.

From Ex-Muhler to the Karrussell and down the straight the 956 pulls away but otherwise the M3GTR is just as fast, in fact its faster between the Karrussell and the little Karrussell.

I recon he was doing a 6.53 second lap of the Nordschliefe, which is very impressive.

mightly impressive, awesome

That's probably a good thing - can't imagine going under that bridge at 180mph+!

[4WD]

That is ridiculous! Can anyone beat this for a ring download?!

[FrenchTVR]

Awesome, he can't half drive for an old fella

[Mrontheropes]

That's a full lap of 8m19.9s

There is another DVD available (don't know if it's ever been ripped for internet download like this one) - it's the Alzen Porsche 996 Turbo from the 2003 season. It actually does the whole lap half a second quicker :-D

We're not worthy,

not being a particularly good passenger, i don't know if i would enjoy a lap of the ring with Herr Stuck, might need to change my undercrackers afterwards, what a talent!!!!!

You're right, 6.53 secs is damn fast

I guess about Mach 8?

I was wondering about that when watching, is this faster than Dingers lap in the 956.

Best 'ring download I've seen, great stuff, thanks very much.

Stuck's offices in Munich are in the same building as ours (Codemasters). He worked with us on the original TOCA. Sometimes we have had to give him extra copies of games to replace those "borrowed" by his children.

that was simply amazing! He carried so much speed through corners.

I've got to say that download of the yellow RUF porka sliding around the Nordschliefe beats it. maybe..

[Ribol]

Brilliant without a doubt
shame there wasn't a speedo in the corner of the screen.
I bet one or two he passed might have been a little surprised at the speed differential

[ApexClipper]

Utterly astonishing!

Can anyone post a link to the Derek Bell Vid?

[mutt k]

And unlike me when I drive the Ring on GT4 he doesn't bounce from barrier to barrier all the way round either
