It's just your computer reacting to the dramatic CAPS.

She has just a few laps on the 'Ring. But she is as smooth as a baby's butt. I love watching her drive.

Reminds me of the Leh Keen video from Watkins Glen PCA race years ago when he started in the back and passed the entire field in 3 laps...

Please to define "just a few"?

I still love watching the Top gear where she flogs a transport around the ring in 10:08 or so.

Most likely in the top 5 of "Most laps on Nordschleife"...

Sabine is the "king" of the ring!

But that video is a little misguiding.

1. This is a VLN race = 90% of the teams and majority of the drivers are amateurs.
2. Sabine is driving the Frikadelli racing GT3-R. The car significantly faster than a CUP car, let alone any of the other 200+ cars out there competing in that race.
3. There were only six cars in the same class she is driving in.

I have a couple of friends that attend these VLN races, it is a really nice series and the 'ring of course is the best venue in the world. I am hoping to race there in the neae future. Just need to get some more laps on the Nordschleife (going there next weekend again ).

Datalogger showed 8:20.xxx for her best lap (Wet). Fastest VLN lap time is Uwe Alzens pole time on Sept 28th 2013, 8:01,069. Most likely on dry...
