saw it few days ago on dmtpower.net, by the way ninja that car is a v8 lightweight aluminum block which is pushing around 440 fhp. But the car is a race car which it makes go a lot of faster than a regular car with that amount of power.

the basic play for the track is to get round in less than 10 mins! yes i said 10 mins,thats how long the track is
[F&F] I said a 10 sec car, not a 10 minute car! [/F&F]

That's a sweet track, I'd love to take a lap around it one day. Although it seems so dangerous to have all kinds of cars, from 50 mph tour buses (yes, they have buses on there) to 150 mph Carerra GTs all racing at once.

I've always wondered how an American fast car would look on there. Perhaps a 1000 hp LPE Vette / Hennesey Viper or even an 800 hp Cobra tuned for track instead of drag. Might surpirse quite a few Germans who think all American cars handle like fast battle ships.

That is Hans Stuck doing the driving according to the signature on the vid,There was a show on the autobahn that I watched one time and he was defending the no speed limit, he was saying that when people drive fast they pay attention to what they are doing, and it makes them a better driver. it's when people drive 65, 70 mph that is when they get distracted by eating, talking on the phone ,drinking coffee putting on thier makeup. All the time while he is saying this, he's driving down the Autobahn doing 160 mph in some turbo porsche like it was a Sunday drive. I'll never forget that scene
