THE KILLER CURB - Investigation of Nordschleife

  • Nürburging has just been opened for the new season - and despite investing a lot in the safety - people still find Track to be not the safest one. We have made this comedy investigation to explain in a fun way, how smoother track became and that THE CURB is just a stone on the side of the track. Nordschleife is being update every year - and always in the beginning of the season EVERYONE should learn the track as it would be a new one. As one small change in the layout or tarmac will move braking points, turn in points and cornering speeds. But that makes this track so special - you just keep on learning and enjoying it!

      He already knows the curb is bigger from his trackwalk video and he has already done a video of his first lap when he tries to take the curbs, no damage but a very solid kick when trying to mount the curb.

    Fun video! I think the main problem isn't "the curb is too big", but instead "there's no warning or announcement about this change". If a driver doesn't pay close attention they may take the old line and damage their car, and it wouldn't be nice to see everyone learn about this the hard way.

    Fair point. Still I'm going to miss the line that went over the curb, people sending it up the hill was always such a cool thing to watch. Let's wait and see how the new line evolves and feels to watch. It's not about lap time for me but about flair.

    That was always one of my favorite part of the tracks, and now it's gone.. To be fair i only play video games but the awesome sequence of "compression, straighten car on incline for break, then turn left and back on throttle for the curb" before the final breaking sequence into Adenauer Forst will be missed in future games / sims.
    As for Touristenfahrten - yea take it slow, this isn't a race.. but at the end of the day it's still a racetrack which now has a beautiful racing line stripped away from it.
    EDIT: Please let's not get into semantics about the Nordschleife being a public road vs being a race track. We all know it's just a legal issue mainly concerning Touristenfahrten.

    I've only driven this track in Assetto Corsa, but a lot on there. Laser-scanned from before the curb was changed ofc, so I know what people mean when they say that it was just perfect the way it was. You could always just flat out over that curb and you'd have the perfect line for the upcoming righthand turn. If you drive only a little bit more to the right, on the actual road, you might slide to the outside too much. The curb gives you safety and locks you into the corner. It was just one of the things that made you feel like it was designed like that on purpose. Having it changed like this with the lame excuse that people should follow track limits hasn't the same weight as the emotional experience of what this curb was like. Also how am I supposed to meaningfully train for this track now that the AC-version is not accurate anymore? Are they gonna contact the developers for a new laser-scan-date and push it as a free update? I don't think so

For example, in Hatzenbach last right hand corner, the curb has that same profile/height as this has. People, every time you enter track, what ever track, you have to look for the changes. DON’T BLAME TRACK, YOU are driving so you should know. Enjoy the best and most challenging track IN THE WORLD. ’But Esa, navigation told me to drive there’. 🙈😵‍💫

    Worst changes the track have gone through in 10 years, making the curbs higher is dumb imo .
    The track had a nice flow, now the curbs are completely bordering the road and there is maybe 3-4 spots left where you can put 2 wheels on the curbs .
    Maybe I’m missing something or it’s for some safety reasons ? I still think it’s actually more dangerous to have bouncy curbs than curbs you can go over .
    Just imagine clipping one of these at 160-170 or more ?
    What was the idea there ? Make the drivers slower ? I don’t get it .

    the Nürbürgring is one of the worst racetracks. Period. There's no doscussion about it. It's not called "the green hell" because it's scary or difficult, but because it's a very badly designed track with very little safety features, bad visibility, dangerous and treacherous changes in "flatness". I've ran some racetracks, but the ring will always have a place in my heart as a piece of crap.

    • @Ringfreaks

    I think it’s neither funny nor correct. I like funny packed messages but this one isn’t a good one. First he makes the curb smaller than it is and then he recommends not to drive over it and the street there would be wide enough, so there would not be any need to take it. It’s just a comedy video, so please don’t take the message serious.
    The curb shall prevent the area from too much water when it’s raining. That’s the compromise of the builders and it can only be learned buy the lucky ones hearing about the Desaster moments from those unlucky ones who did try it. And at the speed on this corner it’s not funny at all. That’s more than a recent change, it’s a dangerous one and caused already a lot. Finally this video is laughing about it. Not funny guys.

      He hasn't shown shit. He's just talked a bunch. Even if you can carry more speed now, with the curb fixed you could carry even more speed.
