*bump*
Yesterday I took my Jazz to the real Nurburgring-Nordschleife for four laps. At the moment, my car is in stock specification but it was a real blast to drive. The elevation changes are much more drastic than in video games or clips on YouTube. It's great fun but difficult with such soft suspension. It's impossible to drive real fast especially because of the fact that I got the slowest car and was constantly overtaken by some S2000, Porsche GT3 and Audi R8. The whole car sways on the bumps. What is more, the European 1.4 engine with 83 hp is sufficent but too weak sometimes. No chance to drive more than 150 km/h in some parts because of no power.
Nonetheless, I enjoyed the drive that lasted approx. 15 Minutes per lap and I'm looking forward to drive on the Ring next time with new suspension, exhaust and light weight rims. Anybody else who took his Fit to the Ring?
