Let's talk about momentum driving again......this is a driver that is really in control of his momentum.

HOLY COW !

That driver either is or has been a rally driver the way he flicks the wheel to induce oversteer to rotate the car around the corners!
Fantastico

Isn't that Rohrl?

I can't believe he's traveling at a billion miles an hour around that track without even a helmet on...wow.

He's a hack, his turn in is all wrong. No way a good driver would ever be that sideways. This guys has been watching too many Fast and Furious movies.

Holy Smokey!

If Ruf ever sells a Hi-Res video of the original and new Yellow Bird on the Ring, I would pay to buy the video and watch it all day long!

Thanks,

That video is 9 minutes long, the Ruf video is only 8 minutes long. So clearly the Ruf video is faster.

Whatt??? (sarcasm I hope).

Okay, not the fastest way around the ring, but great car control. Pitching a car in the downhill sections and collecting it with major throttle is only for a few with large cajones. The track is not very wide and into Breidsheid in a drift is pretty insane.

Stefan Rosler, well known show off

Helmets- we don't need no freeking helmets, actually he was only showboating, no need for a helmet.
