Can't wait to see how the New ACR Extreme does over there. With all the down force I know top speed won't be as fast but the corners should be amazing.

Great news. I hope to see the ACR, Z06, 2016 GT3 RS, LaFerrari, 488, 675 LT times in the near future.

Hope the new ACR will be tracked there before the mods per FIA’s orders are made at Flugplatz and elsewhere to get truly comparable times. Well, someone will have to set a benchmark after the mods.... The new ACR?

Would love to see it also, just believe the monies will prohibit....JM2C

So reading that report, you know now that the deniers will say "OH the car did a better lap time because the track surface is different :(

So good news and Bad news ;)

[Camfab]

It's true if the surface is changed, particularly in form and design for safety sake, the numbers will not be comparable. I believe I read somewhere where the changes would be made in the next 4 mos. or so? I don't believe the speed limits will be removed until all work is completed.

Wouldnt it be nice if we had an electronically controlled wing? whom ever makes one, i coined it first! then we would have top speed and cornering at the same time!

[Vprbite]

Umm....drlee50...I hate to break your heart but come supercars already have that.


I'm surprised they ever implemented speed limits. Europe is much more "at your own risk" type of place and also much less litigious than we are, I thought that anyone getting on that track knew what they were getting into. And the people who got hurt in that wreck had climbed fences to get somewhere that they shouldn't have been. I don't think there should have ever been speed limits in the first place.

No chance now!

That's what snow tires are for.

[viper04blk]

I think you have to put smaller ones on. That's good thouh, so they cut through the snow.
