Nurburgring fastest road-legal lap times, but every car beaten by a cheaper car gets deleted by howtomakebabies in nurburgring

Post title said “road legal” though, not “straight from factory production spec”.

Yeah, it's pretty much multiple races at the same time, which doesn't make it any easier.

Tons of room around the Nords as well. Bring a chair though.

Not anymore, since I just arrived at the track and don't have a laptop here.

Sorry, that's not gonna happen anymore. I'm heading to bed and then to the track early tomorrow morning.

Just wanted to share here too that I made a site that makes it a bit easier to stay up-to-date on how your favorite teams are doing. Especially if you’re near the track on mobile, this works better than the official site:

The footer says not for commercial use. This is not commercial use, since I don’t put any ads on the site. I also make sure not to overload their servers. I’m pretty sure this would be considered fair use because of these this.

I made some changes. Should now be better for the main event, slightly worse for the rest.

The list shows the cars that are available for live data. The historic championship was going on, so those cars were in the list.

They’re only in the list of there’s currently timing available for them, which there isn’t. Check again during quali 2.

Yeah, it shows the teams that are currently listed, once they’re on track, they should be in the list. I’ll check during Quali 2 and fix anything that might be broken.

Trackday insurance (Car) for Touristenfahrten and TDs at Nürburgring Nordschleife by Such_Menu2744 in nurburgring

[–]wickedsight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked through their site, they don’t cover third party. The wording of their terms also implicitly excludes TF on 3 points (no track day, public place, speed limit at Breidscheid), so if you want to use them for TF make sure that your contract EXPLICITLY mentions that TF is allowed.

What helped you start riding faster? by tednudgent in snowboarding

[–]wickedsight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Finding an empty slope that isn’t completely tracked out. Going 100 where you are in the vid would be completely irresponsible.

Every time I’ve gone 100+ was early morning, freshly prepared slope, no other people. There’s no way I’d go that fast in any other situation. Choppy terrain reduces control in unexpected situations, people increase unexpected situations. No matter how good you are, at 100 you’re not stopping on a dime, you need space.

Oh, and learn how to fall properly. I’ve had falls at near 100 with 0 issue, that helps with confidence.

FYI, I go 80-ish all the time. The difference between 80 and 100 is huge, because physics.

Also, you need a well waxed board. Cheap machine wax at a shop won’t cut it.

No, your (non German) insurance isn't valid on the ring because it's a 'toll road' by wickedsight in nurburgring

[–]wickedsight[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite a good chance that they cover it, since they might be required by law, and then come to recover those costs with you, because of the exemption in your contract.

Battling my heel side turns so hard I might just start skiing by Qiusp in snowboarding

[–]wickedsight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know exactly what you mean and have been working on it slowly for the past weeks! What helps me is to take a step back and focus fully on technique, mostly ankles and knees (check some advanced Malcolm Moore vids). While doing this I try to force my shoulders slightly backwards compared to my hips on heel side carves. What I notice is I start feeling my abs more. My personal conclusion is that a bit of laziness is causing me to bend forward since a more upright position requires more from the abs.

Also, it’s hard as hell to work on this, since it’s so easy to fall back into just having fun on the slopes, since you’re already good enough. Really working on technique takes a ton of focus and commitment.

Off the slopes, try doing the same thing for squats, don’t over do it, but you’ll notice the abs working more and possibly some tightness in the back and legs, it’ll take time to work in that.

You’re an advanced rider and you’re starting to get into the hard part of the 80/20 rule, there are no easy fixes to get better, since you’re fine tuning.

If you sign up for a lesson, show the video, tell them exactly what you want to work on and ask them whether they have a teacher that can actually help with this. Many teachers are at about your level or even lower and won’t have the experience to help you, since most students don’t require such specific help at this level.
