Pay close attention to how long he waits before committing to throttle coming out of corners... And then pay attention to how stable & serene his car appears, and how relaxed he is as he passes everyone.

The 2 are connected.

Nauseous with skills-envy here. I bet the ratio of subconscious to conscious instructions issued by his brain during those two laps was 1000-to-1, maybe more. It's where we all wish we could be.... in the flow.

Starting at 8:00 mins after he gets around that green car, there is a section where he clearly trades away some smoothness to reach beyond 100% (perhaps to make up lost time?). Getting pretty close to touching the hand of God there.

where the hell is the bow-down-and-worship smiley?

That's disgusting. He'd have me beat while steering with his knees.

Intense! Best.

Never had goosebumps lasting 19 mins!!!!! Entire length of vid.

If that's not one of the best thrillers to watch, don't know what is !

Thnx Mikymu!

This video make me feel alive when it's cold and wet out and my Cup is sitting in my garage collecting dust. This is a race at the Nürburgring for those not familiar. Piloting a Cup without ABS is hard enough not to mention nose to tail at break neck speed with 70+ turns and no run off. Yellow and white flags only last two corners and yes, do watch out for slow support trucks picking up debris and grown man in tears wearing race suit

Go to 5:10 mark on this video and see how a mini punt a RSR ... green hell is not for the weak of heart
