The Nurburgring Webcam Gallery

Look closely, he's taking a picture of a scale model car.
(probably saw that yourself)

(probably saw that yourself)

Not until you mentioned it. Big question now is: is he going to take it for a round.

Interesting web cam though, amazing things happen of which you'd never think that would occur there, like bicycle contests, running contests, etc. etc.


EDIT:

Looking really busy right now:

The GT40 is actually in Gulf livery (blue and orange)

The black car is indeed a Mosler, a Mosler MT900

 

[ferrari_chris]

GT40 didn't have gullwing doors like that.

 

[Muzaffar]

I think the GT40 was a replica or something. Has been mentioned here a few times already and was quite a regular on the Nurburingring.

 

[gnomefromnome]

hmm...

Resurfacing crews, it appears.

Resurfacing crews, it appears.

that probably means that current laptimes can be thrown out from the window, depending of how much of the Nurb will be resurfaced.

With one tamper, a small excavator and what appears to be a tipped over mini forklift probably can't do enough resurfacing to affect laptimes in any significant amount. I'm sure it's just patching up a couple spots or something.

 

[Leonidae]

mmhmm.. but how can you be sure that there's not more workers and heavy machinery?

 

[gnomefromnome]

cool

 

[SteveO1965]

[Alex.]

An Audi R8 race car of somesort, it would seem.

I thought R8 but the proportions seem to be slightly off?

The silver car is an Isdera.

 

[nk4e]

Testing something?

The silver car is an Isdera.

Why would anyone paint an Isdera in the Gulf livery? It's clearly a Ford GT/ GT replica of some mark.

Just seems to be ABT testing one of their many projects TBH, nothing particularly special there. Doesn't seem to resemble a racecar of any sort, maybe just slight front end modifications from what we can see.

I'd say it is fairly likely to be a race car of some description. It looks to be sat up on hydraulic axel stands and there is a stack of tyres in tyre warmers near the entrance of the awning.

*edit* It's also been reported that ABT have been seen testing a GT3 R8 today.

My bad, sincerely hope that the car we see is the R8 GT3! To be 100% honest, if I was going out on the Nord' in ANY car i'd want some pre-heated slicks, especially as the going looks slightly greasy today.

Sorry mate you are wrong, the silver car is an Isdera, an Erator GTE.

My word, that looks SO Mk3-ish. Thanks for the education :tup:

No probs, and you are right it looks very much like a GT40.

 

[gnomefromnome]

it snowed!!

this was ten days ago

 

[Metar]

this was ten days ago

Related to this article? They mentioned November...

EDIT: Scrap that, wrong colour on the GT-R..

 

[Danster]

wow! are there any cars allowed in the snow?

Obviously Yes!

 

[Danster]

some morons had thier heads crammed into the tolbooths while the track was closed. The mystery Audi came back again aswell as a VW Jetta wagon and a VW Touran.

??? cant find anything on the net about the track being closed due to snow.
Can anyone shine light on this?

sorry about the double post, the message above would have made no sense in my previous post.


Edit 22/12/08: This is annoying me! The track must be closed over the festive season.

 

[gnomefromnome]

anyone notice what this sign said before it fell?

 

[ferrari_chris]

My bet is on Christmas (and probably a Merry before it) and "4 ever".

 

[DarkoBWM]

My first post

What is this I just found?
Some kind of audi...
