Default ZR1 around the Ring (Video)

This time with Jan Magnussen behind the wheel. It was on a public day, so there is traffic, but is still awe inspiring to watch.

That's what I was thinking the whole time.

Damn that car is fast. It picks up speed SUPER quick. And that's one hell of a driver. He sure has a lot of confidence going into the corners mid turn on the accelerator.

BAD *** VIDEO!!!!!

What a blast that would be. I wonder why they edited the video footage between 5:34-5:35.

I think he was saying thank you because the bike hit the brakes to let him go by, but I laughed at that as well.
