I imagine that some "boys" playing "Ralphie Racer" in their expensive toys have a driver suit change in order when Hans Stuck in his M3 goes deeper into a corner before braking and outbrakes them while going 50 mph faster than they are at the time. Stuck is the Nurburgring Master. The BMW M3 GTR handles reeeeell good down the straight too. Not bad for a "street car" Guessing he was on the high side of 175 mph at times.

There were a couple hooptie Porches that got passed in short order in that video

Done it...it's good, but ppes them off.."I was taking the approved Porsche line, you shouldn't have passed me there" Reply, "Maybe if you weren't so slow" pped them off again. I was driving a car that had NO business being faster....and it was in the rain.

That guy is amazing, no way will I every have that kind of skill, even with a full race team behind me and nothing but practice as my leisure. Human talent can be so interesting to watch... and humbling at times.

GOOD GOD that was good! Was it good for you too?
Next time they should put a tach in the screen so we can see just how high the revs are on that nice long straight.
Pay close attention to the last 50 seconds and watch the master close in on his next victim on that straight bit, whoa!

I wish the little window was a view of his feet instead of him steering/shifting.
Wow!

Nothing is so bad that you can't make it worse by doing something rash or going berserk.

You wouldn't have seen much more than his right foot on the floor or his left foot hitting the brakes. The sequential gearbox only uses the clutch to start out, never used on upshift or downshift. I know, I love to watch an expert at heal and toe at work too, as I'm sure he is a master at that also.

The feet vid was awe inspiring...Fred Astaire would have been amazed. I can never get used to the movable human guardrail in Europe though.
