Wow, that truly is the dream. The 964 driver was a bit more advanced and/or familiar.

I've not raced, but seems the 993 was hogging the track on turns, when the pursuing 964 might have been able to pass?

Both drivers are very experienced driving the Nürburgring. The chasing car spent all year at the ring and the driver is working really hard on his driving skills and improving his lap times.
The gorgeous 993 Ninemeister car has seen numerous laps around the Nordsleife with its driver.

Just have to love the cup holder. Can’t stop watching it.

"Dancing with the Cars". To put the amount of concentration required into perspective, the length of the Nurburgring Nordschleife is like 5 laps of VIR's Full Course with a much higher degree of difficulty...and danger!

The real story is that silver Mercedes that neither one could touch until he backed off to let them by. Wow

Very entertaining to watch. Great driving from both parties. The 993 seemed to have a little more straight-line power but the 964 was keeping up in the turns. Great video. Cheers
