Thanks mopsdrops! Nurburgring vids are always welcome... :D
EDIT: saw the video and it was nice. Only thing that bothered me a bit were the comments on the gearbox. The manual M3 in front misses a shift and the driver of the camera car takes the opportunity to praise the SMG 'box. Whereas IMO it's far more impressive to drive a manual car equally fast along the NS than an SMG one... Even if that means a misshift once a lap.
I remember a similar video on 8200rpm ages ago.. could this be the same one?
Downloading anyway since as said, NS rules :D
i hope ia int seen this one b4,takes a while to d/l 143MB LOL

I personally havn't seen it before, but this was a awesome video. Both of these guys were great drivers but i'de give more credit to the guy in front with the manual. Staying in front of the other M3 and having to do more work to do it is pretty dam good to me.

I completely agree!! I also think the guy infront may be having more fun having to use a manual gearbox, as changing gear and getting it right is far more rewarding than just pushing a playstation steering wheel paddle. The guy infront can safely say it was him that made the quick time, while the chase car driver had some silicon to help him along! Great video though, but becuase of the poor sound you dont get a feeling of speed or acceleration!

I knew this video could come up sometimes... can't we arrange something that you cannot reply anymore after 1 year or something like that?
