Post by: Hurdy on October 05, 2010, 12:08:18 am: OMG, that was a 6 min 30 second bridge to gantry and a 6 min 54 second full Nurburgring lap :laugh: :driver:

24 seconds between the gantry and the bridge must mean his top speed isn't phenomenal as my old Golf could do it in 26 seconds and he was carrying a lot more out of the corner before the main straight than I could have, so that has to mean his lap is even more impressive :driver:
