THIS is extreme cornering

[Rouleur]

Those kerr-azy Germans, eh?

Hang on, lads...

[Strawman]

Shame there isn't some motion blur, almost looks like an advert for superglue.

[The Wookie]

Bloody MLM in his 190

[joncastle]

What it looks like from the passenger seat!

[dugt]

Thats a completly different road

[joncastle]

Obviously! Different road, different car, different continent. But have YOU got a photo taken from inside a car on the highest part of a banked turn?

[900T-R]

Anyone tried this with a Citroën Nemo lately?

[XJSJohn]

the OP's picture looks more like a Bob Sleigh run (minus the snow and ice obviously!)

Probably not a photo for this topic so he's not going to post a random one is he?

It would appear so, that is slightly insane though that picture, I'd love to know how fast they were all going to stay upright, I mean vertical, oh never mind.

I'm fairly sure that's Mercedes' test track at their Stuttgart factory. I got a really good view from the top of a ferris wheel at Cannstatter Volksfest last October.

I thought about writing a reply like that, couldn't word it, so gave up. I'm feeling a challenge coming on Tom!

What exactly are they accomplishing by putting a coach around a banked track?

[dougc]
