Ring "Ideal-Line" study guide and videos (drifting

[MR LIPP]

I passed this to a few GT4 gamers I know. It is also a great way to study the "line" at the Nordschleife. It is a pdf download that you can print up and study. A must if you are going there in person.

Fun to watch "sideways" Stefan run the ring in full drift. Old video but worth watching the Ruf Porsche slide.

Really cool video of a 997 GT3 doing a little drifting and racing. You don't have to understand German to enjoy the motor sound. This show is similar to "Motor Trend" in the US.

How do I pronounce that?
The easy way is to just call it the Ring like most people do. But if you want to give it a shot, the 'Nür' part of the name sounds a bit like saying 'New-uhr', and the 'burg' is a bit like 'boo-org' although most English-speakers say it 'Ner-berg-ring'. The locals don't seem to care; they're pretty much used to you mangling their language.

You may find that many of the locals (and staff of the track) refer to the track more precisely as the Nordschleife, since that's actually the circuit you're racing on.

The written world can be a bit more confusing. You'll sometimes find Nürburgring written without the umlaut over the first 'u' (i.e. "Nurburgring") or sometimes with the 'u' replaced by 'ue' (i.e. "Nuerburgring") as this is a phonetic spelling of the word when the 'ü' can't be written (like in US-ASCII, used for URLs). For instance, the official Nürburgring web site is actually www.nuerburgring.de.

Looks like someone is planing a trip to drive the ring???
This is very good info though, I have raced this track on Grand Tourismo 4, very technical, And it takes many many hours to get close to a decent lap with all those corners that you could possibly not get right.
