In stock form how do you guys rate your Ferraris & Lambos for performance on the Nurburgring?
Does the car perform as you expect or much more? Do you as a driver have limits beyond the car or have you not even approached them yet?

Just interested in your views.


I'm off over there this coming Friday and remembered seeing a number of F360's on my last visit which seemed to be going round quite nicely.

My F355 spider was absolutely awesome around the Ring. Never missed a beat and the handling was beyond reproach.
I've been many times, but I was initially quite wary of the Ferrari there as it doesn't have the immense feeling of security that my Skylines had, but once I had done a couple of sighting laps I started pushing it harder.

Then Dirk Schoysmann took the wheel and drove it quite fast and reminded me just how much grip the F355's chassis can generate. He was really impressed and as you may know he is a RingMeister extraordinaire!

I haven't driven a 360M there; is that what you have?
I wouldn't like to comment as I'm not a fan of the 360's handling, but I'm sure somebody who is very experienced with that chassis could make it dance at the Ring very nicely...
