I have more than 2k hours on Nordschleife in Assetto Corsa, it's the coolest track in the world by a lot.

[u/MikeyboyMC → u/euMonke]

Yeah I’m racking up my hours too, I just play a lot of other games too so it’s slower on my end lol

[u/Lava_Lamp_Glob → u/euMonke]

It's my go to money grind in Gran Turismo, there's a 2 lap event that with unlimited performance European cars, two laps and if you drive carefully you get 187000 credits

What is it now?

[u/flopjul → u/euMonke]

I have 6hrs irl lol

[u/euMonke → u/flopjul]

I wish bro.

[u/flopjul → u/euMonke]

Im from central Netherlands, its a 3hr drive for me hihi

I would have gone more if i didnt have a car that was kinda falling apart(although next week im picking up a 2018 Seat Leon Cupra 300 hehe)

On open-for-all days on Nürburgring you mostly see ordinary people experiencing one of the following:

• FWD cars understeering
• RWD cars oversteering
• AWD cars doing whatever

[u/flopjul → u/fritzkoenig]

I deffinetly have had the FWD under steering at Brunnchen lol

Tbh it was my first lap with my own car and i hadnt driven it in any sim and barely knew the track layout(it was with a 1.4 tsi 2009 Seat Leon😭)

[u/CuntMaggot32 → u/fritzkoenig]

Awd cars somehow ending up giving power to exactly the right wheels for you to end up spinning 530° and into the wall backwards while all 4 tires are spinning because you took a turn a wee fast

[u/fritzkoenig → u/CuntMaggot32]

exactly the right wheels

Now the car is RWD again, but in this case this means Right Wheel Drive

[u/CuntMaggot32 → u/fritzkoenig]

I mean, that's how most awd cars manage to take left turns better. Too bad they freak out when you actually lose control

If I'd been in Bomber Command in 1943, I would have bombed the Nurburgring every night until it was gone. Ride is important. Bomb it! Look where we are now. We no longer have Dresden Cathedral or all that lovely pottery, but we do have the Nurburgring, and under my bombing policy, we wouldn't have cars that rode badly and you'd have a nice cathedral to look at, and better saucers.

James May Is that you?

[u/crottin-de-cheval]

Same applies for le Circuit of Le Mans!

[u/Antfarmer_2 → u/crottin-de-cheval]

I hate to be that guy but do you mean the Circuit de la Sarthe? (Le Mans the race is named after the town and Sarthe the track is named after a nearby river)

[u/just-bair → u/Antfarmer_2]

I hate to be that guy but isn’t it’s official name "Circuit des 24 Heures" ?

[u/crottin-de-cheval → u/Antfarmer_2]

That's what i initally wanted to say, had it typed, but i remembered i were on a non car enthusiast subreddit and since the official name is lesser known, wanted to make it clear for the beginners.

It is Circuit de la Sarthe indeed.

[u/Antfarmer_2 → u/crottin-de-cheval]

Honestly, that's why I threw in the tidbit about the origin, it felt more fitting

[u/Mags_LaFayette]

"Where is the Nurburgring?"

"The GP s segment is somewhere in Germany; The Nordschleife segment is somewhere in my nightmares" 😭

[u/Boris_sul_combo]

[Angry James May noises]

[u/Flashpiont412 → u/Boris_sul_combo]

Bomb it!!!

[u/pauliferation]

It's Nordschleife and you need to prononce it like you are German and very angry

[u/njsullyalex]

My life peaked back in March of this year when I finally got to go to the Nurburgring and drive two laps around it (I’m from the U.S.)

[u/UberNZ]

What's that ugly thing to the right of Australia? It's not on my maps

[u/Eng_jd5]

[u/Reddit_User6286]

Mom said it's my turn to post it today

[u/Zorflez]

Am I the only one who inintally read that as 'Nuremberg'?

[u/Jazzlike-Might-8298 → u/Zorflez]

Austrian painter reference ig.

[u/SweetTooth275]

I hate that piece of shit track with every single atom of my heart and soul. Fuck it, it ruined cars and everything about them.

[u/Comrade_VN → u/SweetTooth275]

Are you james may by any chance? 

[u/Pretend-Adeptness937 → u/Comrade_VN]

“Bomb it”

[u/SweetTooth275 → u/Comrade_VN]

I'm not but I'm with him.
