I used to play that track on GT4 and I always sat there and thought I would never have the chance to race on that track. So I know how you feel, and now I have 16 laps of experience on that track and I love every minute of it.

Bikes are Dangerous on that Track, Check out my Lap 3 Video I came about 6 inches from the rear tire on A Ducati because he would not give way to faster vehicles on the track

I seem to remember hearing they were either going to close or tear up the Nürburgring/Nordschleife. Can anyone confirm this?

Regardless of what he was doing do you think getting that close to him was a good idea?
