Why the hell was he going so slow on the first straight?

Pretty cool to see a TL on the 'Ring regardless.

looks fun even though he was driving super slow. Maybe he didn't feel comfortable driving a big sedan fast around the nurburgring, but he was seriously babying the car around the track.

remember he may have stock brake which can be fade if the car is push to the limit, beside track day isn't about who got the best time and this guy obvious isn't race car driver either. If the car got push too much because inexperience driver all hype up about pushing the car then this could happen.

Ok, I made it to around 5 minutes before almost falling asleep. I kept waiting for a bicycle to come flying by him.

Gran Turismo has made us all race car drivers. I know the 'ring like the back of my hand.

I'd love to drive on it in real life.

Me too. Although I wouldn't drive the crap out of my car, I'd certainly take it to it's limit a couple of times lol.

Worst lap of Nordschleife EVER. Seems like he was using cruise control or something. :S

But I could understand his driving style if he didn't know the track. It's so crazy twisty.
