Holy hell... WOW :eek: !!

When they entered into that first banked turn I was like WOW! Did you guys notice how that turn had such a steep bank that the driver barely had to turn the wheel to go through the curve? That was fricken sweet! I would love to be able to drive that same course!

LOL, I watched this one again, and I can't figure out why a test track in Germany would have a big truck, and a bus or something going around while a 200 MPH vette is pushing the envelope like that. Geez, that could have been a disaster waiting for a good place to happen. I guess, in Germany, All the rules of safety are not first. But then again they do have the autobahn. They do love to get there in a hurry.. :D

I was just going to post that same comment. The description of the video is as follows; "The Corvette Development Engineering team took the new ZR1 to the test track in Papenburg, Germany and put the pedal to the metal to see just how fast it could go. "

Then I see this little SUV or whatever, and then this big as tractor-trailer, and I'm thinking WTF!

In Germany they have the same rules of the road as us. On the interstate we say.. "Slower trafic keep right" and there is no place in the southern US where I have seen it enforced either. On the Autobahn (sp?) they have the same rule called "Drive Right" means the same as ours... But they will nail your ass big time if you dont.... "Drive Right". Over there fines are based on your income. Two different peeps will pay different amounts for the same violtion. A doctor would pay thousands while a janitor MAY pay a hundred. But the DO enforce the hell outta the drive right. I wish they would do it here. Pisses me off to have peeps driving the speed limit in the fast lane.

Anything in the road will kill you at 200 MPH and if you try to swerve to miss it that will only kill you faster

3.8LMustang 05-08-2008 10:24 AM
