Seat belts are for pussies, even when you’re driving the most challenging track in the world. 🙂 EDIT 4:15… lol… “HEY ASSHOLES, I’m only halfway out the window when you decided to roll me back on my wheels!” ---

Love this vid. The older swing-axle Volkswagens can get a little tippy during high-speed cornering. Amazing how some of those cars drove away under their own power after a few rolls. ---

The corner is Adenauer Forst, it’s very tricky and easy to come in way too fast, it’s just after a long downhill stretch, some of those cars probably overheated their brakes 🙂 Anyway I may as well post my video, I get to that corner at 3:45, notice I’m all the way to the left, the proper line. Most people in the vid are way too far right, like they came in way too fast.
