A search for the most amazing Nordschleife experience GT5 can offer.
Any Norschleife timing specialists in here ? :)

Whats the best time (in track settings) To start a race?
I want see the prettyest Dusk Or/And Dawn. (sun going down or rising sun)

Dont forget to include the Time change ratio number and for how many laps your setups are.
Edit: Also mention if the setup is for the Nordschleife or 24H layout. Thanks.

I just took these today too. i dont remember the exact time though.. i think it was around 5 or 4.. and the ratio was 0 because i was taking pics.
 
Dawn or dusk, depending on where you're shooting the picture as obviously the light will be coming from opposite horizons. For dawn I always start at 5:30 and dusk at 19:30.
 
start around 5:20-5:40 and put time progression on 1. Just sit back and cruise in free run with the HUD and music off in the cockpit view and watch the sun slowly peek over the trees. I would've bought GT5 just for this experience alone. :)
 
I go 4:30am with a 7:1 ratio. I use the 24hr track and the sun is lightening the overhead sky (not peeking over the horizon yet) when I get on the Ring itself. It's still dark on the track. Any camera angle looking towards the horizon is a spectacular view. This is about all I spend my time with in GT5 nowadays. Running my favorite cars and running cars I think would be enjoyable with this set-up.

Lots of fun and a pretty big challenge driving the Ring where you can barely see your turning/braking points.
 
Thanks FishHunters :)
Your setup 4:30am with time speed set to 7 was great!!!
24H layout at the start its all grey (not pich black dark) with sunlight on the clouds.
When you reach the actual Nordschleife its sunlight starting to hit the Guard rail on one side and the track is getting lighter too.
But in the first "small vally" drop the track goes dark again ... real nice like you get sucked in the Nordschleifes forrests :)
Furtheron the sun is starting to hit the track ! nice treetops shadows projecting all over the track !
By the time you reach the last streigt you are amazed looking to the rear. The big ball off fire over the trees hitting the shiny asfalt , reflecting sunlight real nice.
The second lap is worth driving too.

Perfect setup for a 24H Nurburgring 2Lap race. Made some good Foto's (When i get my lpc back ill post some here)
 
I start around 5:40pm(17:40) or so and put time progression at 25. Got some really nice picures imo.
