    This is one of the most incredible videos I've seen on the ZR1. Sit back and turn up the volume on this one!




    Awesome video of Corvette Racing's, Jan Magnussen taking on the Nordschleife in a 2009 ZR1 at an incredible speed!

    Why just that section? Seems kinda strange to include everything but one section of track...unless there was a slight mishap that didn't need to be included.

    You ought to check out the "Getaway In Stockholm" videos. I think I posted one at VetteTube. I don't recall if it's the first one or the one with a Corvette running.

    AWESOME. Only thing wrong with that video was the rear-view mirror. I kept trying to look around it .
    Did you see the Porsche he flew by? It looked like it was ducking for cover .

    I have no Idea why just that section. However, the Carousel is probably the most recognizable part of the track.
