I took a couple of friends for a scenic drive through the German countryside and it was fun.

Ren Taxi // Ring Taxi

I had an awesome couple of days at the Nürburgring getting myself better acquainted with the famous track also known as “The Green Hell”.

Ren Taxi // Ring Taxi

I had an awesome couple of days at the Nürburgring getting myself better acquainted with the famous track also known as “The Green Hell”.

I drove a selection of cars from Ring Garage, starting with the Car Throttle Toyota ‪#‎CT86‬ on the first day, the Porsche Carrera on the second day, and finally back to my favourite, the BMW M3 on the final day.

The last day was the only that had a full dry track after a few days of bad weather, and unfortunately just before the end of the manufacturer test sessions, there was a major crash at the Flugplatz section, meaning a big section of high-speed was slowed down by marshalls for repairs.

I’d already lined up the M3 for it, but because my target lap time could not possibly be reached, I took a few of my friends for a couple of rides around “The Ring” instead. This lap we just happened to head out through the toll gates directly behind the new BMW M5 Official “Ring Taxi”, so I tagged along for a little bit of fun.

Enjoy the video!

BTW, these parts are my favorite, one hand aiming for the mini-karussell.

Don’t really care for BMWs but seeing how hard that M5 pulls makes me wanna drive one.

Imagine the drive in the video in control of one of those Ring Taxis, he’d be uncatchable.

Yeah, even with it in a reduced mode, it can’t handle all of the bumps (z-axis) that this track throws at it. But all it is doing is pulling out some throttle, no stability control takes effect at all.
