Brit sets new Nurburg ring record, on a bike.
« on: 04 June 2012, 12:06:14 »


Video in the link. If you hold your laptop or tablet so the horizon is constantly level, I think it gives more reslistic experience. See how you go.  :y

Thats one hell of a lap, can't help but think he would have had a faster time if he could have had a cleaner pass over some of the other bikes and cars on the track at the time.

on a 42'' plasma here and that's enough!!

Seriously though - that wasn't a great lap. He can obviously ride, very well at that but just think of his time with no traffic and nailing every corner!!! Credit to him for having the balls.

mr Mcguiness might find that lap a littler reserved after his antics on the island. Loads of run off compared to the tt course. Works support and a top rider on a closed circuit... More to come me thinks. :y
