Highly recommend the complete DVD guys 'IN CAR 956'...its worth it.



Funny thing is though, I didn't find the Nurburgring lap anywhere near as interesting as 'FASZINATION ON THE NURBURGRING'.

Reason? Faster doesn't always equal more exciting.

A good example is Walter Rohrl- he's a VERY clean driver, you don't see him deliberately getting a car out of shape like Stefan Roser from Ruf (or Tiff).

Its just like watching a lap in fast forward, no oversteer, opposite lock etc etc...no drama.



The highlights come from the other tracks where the car gets more out of shape and you hear more of the car without commentary. (ie. The sound of the turbo and wastecut cutting in and out combined with the speed is outstanding!)

Yes - 6:41 is VERY fast (bellofs 6:11 is astonishing!)...but Ruf videos at the ring with Stefan Roser at the wheel are WAY more entertaining.
