ZR NO DASH 1 -- MOST X-CELLANT TRACK VIDEO
Awesome video of Corvette Racing's, Jan Magnussen taking on the Nordschleife in a 2009 ZR1 at an incredible speed!

Re: ZR NO DASH 1 -- MOST X-CELLANT TRACK VIDEO
Damn, just damn... It's nice to watch a pro go to work!
Thanks for posting that one Bryan! I wish I could translate what Jan said at the end of the ride. One thing struck me, that track has some bumps! I would like to try in my Z, but I think that the bumps and our suspension would not get along too well?

Re: ZR NO DASH 1 -- MOST X-CELLANT TRACK VIDEO
I don`t know Jan Magnussen is but he can sure drive. That Vette really hauled a$$ too. Good video. =D> Makes me want to do the Richard Petty driving school at Talladega. A friend of mine went down there about 5 years ago and drove a car. He was supposed to follow another car and run up to around 165 mph. A couple times he would fall behind in a curve so he could really top it out in the straight-a-ways and catch back up. Said it cost about 500 and was worth every dollar.

Re: ZR NO DASH 1 -- MOST X-CELLANT TRACK VIDEO
Magnussen is still an active driver, now in the Danish Touring Car Championship (DTC) and in a Chevrolet Corvette C6.R in the American Le Mans Series with Johnny O'Connell as team mate – and of course in the 24 hours of Le Mans. In the Danish Touring Car series he drives a BMW 320si E90 for Team Den BlÃ¥ Avis Fleggaard Racing. He has won the DTC on two occasions in 2003 and 2008.

Re: ZR NO DASH 1 -- MOST X-CELLANT TRACK VIDEO
Awesome! And not even wearing gloves!
I noticed in severe turns he holds his grip and crosses over his arms. Cool? |
