It’s Thursday. Time for Ring Porn. Slinging in the rain edition.

After a week off, we are back at the ring.

Our previous visit had us being given a corner by corner lesson in driving the Nordschleife from none other than Hans Stuck. This week we have a lesson of a different color, or moisture level one might say. Hit the jump for more.

The Ring has it’s own driving academy, talk about a great place to go to school, which does not appear to be connected to a manufacturer. They teach driving in several different road cars and Formula Super open wheel cars. Andreas Gulden is the chief instructor.

During last weekends German Gran Prix, which was held on the Ring’s F-1 circuit, Andreas and the crew did some teaching on the Green Hell. And boy was it hell. With a rainy wet track, many drivers were probably down with hanging out in the garage and waiting for things to dry out. Not Andreas. He went out with a camera and proceeded to give us a driving lesson like no other.

From massive amounts of opposite lock to being all over the rev limiter, it was an inspiring and somewhat frightening drive. He also was the first car I have EVER seen take the Karussell on the OUTSIDE!! Given the roughness of the inside line on the Karussell and the low slung nature of the car, I guess it is not surprising.

So, sit back and watch 12.5 minutes of pure Ring Awesomeness. As always, turn the sound up.

See ya next time for more Ring Porn
