Cool! It sounds like they may have been left foot braking the GT3 around the 1:00 mark.

Lets hope it pulls away fast so we don't have to look at its butt-ugly *** end.

Looks like Brunnchen into Eiskurve. Been along time since I drove that. When you do graded laps with the local instructors they don't allow you to use the curbing exits and listen for the rumbling noise it makes. That area looks like track to me!!! Thanks for posting VR.
