Yikes, that looks scary, glad the driver is OK. How do they get the car out of there?

That car is from ProSport who were at B12. Glad to hear the driver is ok. Insane damage. Must've been one hell of a landing

So what is VLN? I get the impression it is a racing series that just runs at the same track all year?

It's the German Endurance Championship, and yes it is exclusively run at the Nürburgring (Nordschleife + GP-loop).

Hahaha, no - they were well above 200 cars in the past, though with less GT-heavy fields.

Lol, sorry had to laugh for the 171 remark

They couldn't get to the old (old = around five years ago) numbers of 250 entries anymore even if they wanted as DSMB has artificially lowered the max admittance to 210 I believe.

Is there any indication on why BMW is so far off with the M6? Granted, it's a new car but being that far off the competition in a BoPed environment is kind of worrying.

Farnbacher RC F was able to come in 16th after starting from the pits. Best lap was in 8:16's. Hope the car can show good pace like the end of last year.

The amount of GT3s and fans all around the track was really stunning. And then there was the quality of the racing. It's gonna be a great year.

Right you are. I got the qualifying time mixed up with their best lap. I noticed they ran Yokohama this year instead of Michelin (I think) last year, I wonder what difference that makes.
