Hello folks !!!

here is a video I made of myself comparing me driving a Ruf 3400S with my T500RS wheel on GT5 (comfort medium tires) and me driving my Porsche Cayman R on the real Nordschleife last October (though I had to cut some vids together coz I sadly wasnt able to record a free lap) ...

The similarity is, imo, quite astonishing, though I gotta say that in real life I had some tyre degradation which in GT5 did not occur (towards the end of the lap) :) ... Still in my opinion a great example how realistic GT5 is if one doesn't use super sticky rubber :)

Hope all of you enjoy my video and keep racing




BTW: I am new to this forum, my name is Nick and I am from Germany :)
 
Great comparison, though I wish you'd used the dashboard view on the RUF as well (for the perspective). I've noticed, on my two track days, that the road tyres on my cars tended to go off after about 5 laps or so of my nearest racetracks(Mitsubishi Evo 7 at Wakefield Park, Toyota Supra SZR at the old Oran Park) so tyre degradation over a lap of the Nurburgring is understandable. I'm pretty sure it's due to excessive heat causing the treadblocks to move around.

For reference, these are the two tracks:
