i never timed myself around there as i saw it as a recipe for disaster doing that.  i just looked at the trip computer and id say i was consistantly around the low 9 minute very high 8 minute region afer alot of laps there.  was just starting to get to know the track well as i left.

Not me, but my car and previous owner did an 8.51. Dont know if its any good or not?
I personally have no interest in taking my car there, but it was the only candy white edition 30 i could find at the time i was hunting for so had no choice but to accept its past! lol.  :driver: I would think there a pretty good car round the nurburgring.

I did two 9'10" in October - BtoG

One was my first ever lap on the 'ring and was in the damp and the second was in the wet......on R888's :driver:

Going again in April (19th), but the lap times will be longer as the lap includes the full 'ring lap plus the GP sprint circuit.

If I set up the Racelogic Performance Box correctly I can do lap times to 0.1 seconds and add up to 6 section times.

That would mean ...

Lap start/finish on the s/f line
section 1 end on joining the 'ring
section 2 end at the gantry
section 3 end at the bridge
section 4 end on joining the sprint circuit

The only sections that I'd miss would be a 3 second gap of the ring and a 3 second gap on the sprint circuit, but getting on and off the sprint circuit/'ring have their own bends, so the difference in reality is probably zero.

These sections should allow me to calculate the GP sprint circuit times, the full 'ring times and the bridge to gantry times. :happy2:

9'10'' on a FWD and with semislicks on wet ??? This seems close to impossible to me ! Mayebe the measurements have been made at different positions. I've measured from the first bridge (last year it had a commercial with Bilstein on it) to the commercial with Audi RS6 quattro. This sin't a full lap (it exclude the longest straight line as you have to go out of the track each lap and enter again using your card !

Ask Greenouse, he was in the car with me, hanging on like his life depended on it :laugh:

It was bridge to gantry. (see sig pic below for how wet!)

Also did a 10 minute lap in the wet with me and three 16 stone men in :laugh:

Damn, that is a very good time. Mine was on dry but after seing what you wrote I've just watched my HD video and I've seen I drove really slow because of traffic. I stayed there for 2 days wich were saturday and sunday. Unfortunately, saturday it was a local race and we only had 2 hours on that day + one accident. Imagine the circuit opened at 6PM and about 200 cars + 50 bikes entering at once ! It was chaos. Thsi year we will be staying 4 days and hopefully the 2 of them that are not weekend the traffic will be much lighter. Anyone can remember when did the track have the least traffic ? (morning, noon, evening)
