I've just heard about a new one that is right up there with the best. Haven't seen it myself yet, but from many recent comments from people who I know well from trackdays in serious mechinery, this one will be worth watching -

Having ordered this film last week the DVD arrived today and I have watched it tonight. I have a lump in my throat. Absolutely incredible, get's even more insane as he starts carving through the end marker cars and the field from the last third of his second lap onwards.

Anyone into Porsches or driving the Ring simply must have a copy of this DVD. The third lap with all the overtaking manouvres gives a dimension of comparative speed not seen in the Incar956 video (itself a must have).

I understand now why the first run of discs ran out and they are producing a second run for shipping out within a few days. Word of this film has spread so quickly via the internet through car and nurburg ring forums for good reason.

As a car enthusiast, if there is only one DVD you buy this year, THIS IS IT.

Terribly insecure shopping cart they have!

I couldn't see the problem but I have changed the link. Although currently sold out due to unexpected demand they are producing a second run of DVDs so expect about a week delay in delivery.

the problem was when you clicked the link, it linked to an existing cart

once you clicked add to basket, you got the deliver page, listing the nice gents full home address.

still, its done now ta

Have to love t'internet.

Lets anyone get out and on... even those who shouldnt really be loose on their own

Still, I should shoulder some of the blame for not creating my own login to order the dvd, but rather piggybackig on someone elses account

wonder who gets my DVDs :P

My copy arrived today and has blown my mind! I'd have said the film had been speeded up if it hadn't been obvious from the speed of the other cars on the circuit that Alzen's speed was genuine. The thing that really amazed me was the speed differential - he goes past other cars as though they were standing still. Nothing even remotely compares - they're overhauled and despatched with majestic disdain.
It's a fabulous bit of video and one I shall keep returning to watch. Highly recommended.

Got my copy today, now I thought I'd seen just about every incar lap of the Nurburgring that there was to see ( In car 956, RUF Yellowbird, Frank Stippler, Ringmini, Ring Taxi, 944Turbo, Westfield MegaBusa etc etc ) but this is really quite, quite staggering!! I had to keep checking that my DVD player wasn't stuck on FF!! Anybody car to guess what sort of speeds he was reaching?
I presume this is the black car that Frank Stippler is chasing in the other in-car lap??
