Fiat Panda 100HP vs. Golf VII GTi - Nürburgring Nordschleife - Nordschleife 19/8 '22 - lap 2/6

Lap 2/6:
3 accidents, one of which was a biker, but luckily he looked unhurt.
The track was closed while driving the lap, which minimized the traffic for us.
Slowing learning the limits of the new Panda :)

My first time in 3 years on the legendary Nürburgring Nordschleife - Good to be back!
Having only driven the ring in my beloved Fiat Panda 1.2 with 60 Hp (and my Eunos Roadster in granny tempo), the extra power in my 100HP made a really big difference! The 6 speed box was really well spaced for the ring as well, which helped a lot to pull me and my friend up the hills - combined weight for us is around 215kg :)
The car:
2007 Fiat Panda 100HP 1.4 16v with 227.000 km, but still going strong.
Almighty annoying ESP system, slowing us down.
185/55R15 Continental ContiEcoContact - slowing us down :D
The eco tyres were an attempt to lower the grip enough, to make the ESP system leave me alone - it didn´t work. We deactivated it later by unplugging an ABS sensor.
Because of the high tyre profile, the car is 5% higher geared than with the standard 195/45R15 fitment.
Camera setup:
Main camera: LG V40 107* wide angle lens on homemade wooden mount on 3 chassis points.
Rear camera: Xperia SP
Foot camera: Sony AZ-1 Action cam 170* lens.
I ♥ der ring!

Great driving. I bet that GTI driver has buyers remorse after this. Love the 100HP. I can't find one for sale in South Africa. They are rare here.

Thanks :) Nah man, he was just new to the track. I actually think he did pretty well checking his mirrors and keeping to the right for faster traffic - he wasn't the best for spotting the yellows though lol. I love the 100HP too, and they are also very rare here in Denmark. Hope you get one!
