#20, How are the modern Hyundais doing reliability wise? Honestly my only gripe is the styling... the front has a weird "expression" IMO...

#21, Mine had 105,000 miles on it when I got it, and I've put another 20,000 on it. No issues. As far as I know, they've got the reliability aspect pretty nailed down.

My "faces" on the newer Hyundais kinda bug me too, especially on the Genesis coupe. Mine's a 2011, though, so it still has the earlier, sleeker nose.

There are no words to properly convey the gravity of my envy.

The first video:
3:30... is that turn as tricky as it is in videogame form? It's tripped me up many times when I used to play Gran Turismo.
6:06... the sound of that Porsche is epic.
7:54... KARUSSELL!
8:34... Damn that Golf GTi was pushing it hard.

Nice to see how polite people are at getting out of the way... but what was up with that white GTi at the very end?

...haven't watched the second video yet.

#24, I still have to slap myself to check if this is real XD
3:30 - it is... I think you can see it in the video how wavy and undulating it is - both camber and elevation change throughout and there is a bump around the middle on the inside that you can feel only when you push hard. Another thing is that the braking zone is after a blind crest - I actually brake before it since I don't feel like arriving at 200-220kph at a potential scene of a multi-car pile up.
The GTi at the end - he "finished" his lap, but I was still going full speed, trying to get some sort of a "bridge to gantry" time for once.

#23, Question. Can you still get in trouble for filming on the Nordschleife? When I was there in 2009 I was told that it was forbidden. I hid my camera under the seat of my cousin's car until we got through the gate and never posted the video anywhere. Didn't want to get my cousin in trouble somehow since he still lives in Germany, even though the car is long gone.

#27, The ban was lifted last year I think, but strangely enough the regulations still mention it.

#29, I'm confused... I was always under the impression that a laid-down cone was to be viewed as an arrow pointing "go that way"...

#30, Exactly. The first few runs I had no idea where the fuck should I go. I just parked the car and spectated for a bit beofre I managed to convince my mind that the laid down cone was pointing where to go behind the cone standing up...

#31, Ok, so I'm not crazy... I've obviously never done any rallycross, but my brother-in-law does it on a regular basis (he was once president of the Buccaneer regional chapter of the SCCA)... and I've seen quite a few of his videos.
