Ariel Atom Nurburgring Nordschleife
Fourth lap of the Nordschleife, I clocked the time to be 9:12 which is slow, but there were three Yellow flags to slow down for so I think a more respectable 8:12 would have been possible. Looking back at the video it's easy to say should have been flat out in several areas, we touch 130mph in place. But unless you have driven this track and know where the bends go after blind corners you need more than 4 laps to know your way around! So I was happier to back off have a slower time and still be able to drive the car back to the UK and not be on a tow truck.
