Nils, you are my hero! I can play booger to some Z06s (you know, they just can't shake you off) but to a 700HP Viper on slicks? But to be fair you need to show him the video and point out where the line actually is!

It's worth watching every second of this. The track looks like a blast, too. Loved the save at 3:50 in the esses, and the Viper's smoke at 5:30 and the off at the end. You made him bust hump. The best part is in the paddock, though. Surrounded by all the trailer queens is a drove-it-there-and-back sedan.

Nils,

Why don't you do the NASA socal time trial series? You would probably do very well.

I just finished watching the whole vid...

That video is inspirational!

Like what everyone else said, nice save early on in the vid...and an even better job catching up to him. Plus it turned out to have a happy ending.

damn good job nils that was tough. You are a very good driver and looks like the only one in that video that knows where the line is..... I guess the other drivers didn't want to ruin their paint jobs going so slow and all .
