well accually As you alredy got the left foto redy to brake If to much angle should come to car, you are accually alredy redy, Hence its more like you use the brake now and then gently to not spinn off track. Constanly pulse pressning the gaspedal to also keep the angle going, brake slightly to prevent spinn, keep on pushing gaspedal ..
sure in the best Case you never need brake, but eventyally no matter how great someone is they will have to much angle and car will spinn off track If they not use leftfootbrake to prevent It

Left foor braking: I guess: Stay on throttle and left foot brake smoothly?

Or is it more like: Full Panic left foot braking?

Driving down Steilstrecke. A closed part of Nordschleife that is a very steep shortcut from Steilstrecke Corner up to Hohe Acht.



Edvard Sandström (Nürburgring 24H winner with Audi, Now driving for Mercedes.) is trying to improve my driving skills. Unfortunately he failed this time.

That top pic is a keeper, pretty nice to have both of you in the shot.

And may I say, how wicked does the RS look in white from that angle?

Yeah, that has to be the best angle I have ever seen of an RS. That is perfection.

Meanwhile, having lunch at the golf course when this rolls up.

Trivia: In the early days of Nordschleife there where motorcycle races which included the very steep Steilstrecke. The less powerful motorcycles had to be pushed up the hill. Just walking up the Steilstrecke by yourself is hard work.

Coming to Nurburg on Saturday for some tourist driving and then the 24h week begins.

I hope to drive the RCN on Thursday but it not confirmed yet.

Then it is a busy week at the Ring: Which ends with the 24H race and all the craziness in the Eifel woods and mountains with the 24H Party People.

Did a oil change at 13.300 km now the car is at 15.000 km (9.300 miles) and consumed 1 dl during these 1500 track km's.

Oil sample has been sent for analysis but no answer yet.
