Right guys,

I appreciate this is probably not the correct place to post this but I thought it would be the best place as I'm sure there is enough knowledge of the ring to answer my question. smile

Basically I need to know if below is the full nordschleife track and whether or not it looks accurate



Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yup apart from the bottom left corner protrusion which is the current Nurbugring Grand Prix circuit.

Unless some gates just happened to be left open and a few lads in a 730i managed to find themselves going up and down the Steilstrecke a bunch of times. Not that I was there of course.

Maybe thats where the TVR owner managed his sub 8 minute lap on his first visit?!

Actually I recommend setting it to Nuremburg. Helps thin out the crowds.

The Norisring isn't quite as scenic though.
