Does it really matter what car,as long as you are doing it.

I used a stock E30 M3 for a couple of laps, and also used a stock Ford Escort Cosworth too; very fun track. I am going to enjoy having the ring back!

P.S I cant wait to see just how far that time in the stock E30 gets knock down the LB, kinda funny seeing it in 3rd on the LB at the time I recorded the lap lol.

First car I used was an Ultima GTR, felt lovely to go round the ring again. Experienced ringers will be caught out by a section or two at first, I noticed that. Just going to take the Brabham round :slight_smile:

First car was testing the gearing on the new Audi.

First real lap was at the combined circuit in the Brabham. I gotta say that guy has guts to sit in a car like that driving as fast as he did. Not much body work around him.

I will attempt Voodoo’s challenge but I must attempt a drift happy lap in a rear engined German machine as well. So much to do lol

Same.

The answer is obvious, The Ford Ecoboost from the booster pack!

My first one was the McLaren MP4-12c as I was working on affinity but that was a disaster and switched to the 360CS. Three laps to hit one clean.

First I’ll try out the new Audi GTO take it easy and check out the track. Later it’ll be the R18 and then the 787. Good fun to be had thanks T10!

I tried the Lotus E21…

Oh. my. God.

I can see why they won’t let them race there. It was the most fun/horrifying thing I have ever done.

I’m sticking to my C7 Stingray with my Z06 tune.

I will probably run it with a tuned BMW M3 E-30 or E-46 ( Cant remember if I have an E-30) then take the Yellow Bird for a spin… then probably take the new C7 Vette.

Just finished my first lap on the updated Ring in the Mazda 787B and am pleased with how it feels now. feels bumpier and more dangerous then I remember and that’s a good thing :stuck_out_tongue:

I have only run one full lap and that was in the Brabham. I actually miss the FM4 version of the track lol. This one feels somewhat claustrophobic both width and length. The straight does not seem so long now.

It’s great that we have an accurate version now but I may just have to revisit FM4’s version lol

Taking an LFA for a spin … thanks T10 this game is finally complete!!!

Ford Transit Supervan…?

E46 M3!!

Going to run my Subaru WRX the first time round.

I used Raceboys A Class F50 Power tune. Took me 3 laps to get a clean lap and hit 9.57. Not bad for never running the Ring in any game nor knowing anything about it. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time, and at 8.30 into a clean lap, 3 tires in the dirt feels life altering. It is amazing

Brabham bt24 just got to

Alfa SZ…took #1 by 5 seconds…lost #1 to teammate by 4 seconds. Gotta love the ring.

My first lap was the 2013 M5 with “Ring-Taxi” design.
Second lap: Ferrari F40
Third lap: Radical

Now i am in the office… and can’t wait to arrive home… My girlfriend is not so happy about this free Nürburgring Add-on!
Poor little girl… ahaaaaaaaa
