Wyatt Earp Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Awesome if you like movies like fast and furious, They just don't compare to German engineering. Been there, sone that and can happily say that the engineering only gets applied in small doses to their top end models. Rather use the word quality, there is a bit of a difference between engineering and quality.

Grebel Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Also this:http://youtu.be/5FLUkaySEY8 Not sure why anybody would want to take an SUV around there... That's like taking your GTR to the local 4x4 track to see how it performs! Galrilion 1

Rather use the word quality, there is a bit of a difference between engineering and quality. Personally I think the germans have got it all wrong - they throw in some wood, leather, wind noise damping, bump absorbing shocks and call it quality - after some years all the rubber strats cracking, plastics start dulling and warping etc. Germans do "yuppie" - japs do quality. Personally I'm a swedish fam - they seem to have a good balance of both. And for the thread - the reason I'm going to SSWC2012:

You even get guys and girls on scooters on the track.Many of the SUVs are guys from the UK that drive out for a Weekend. The Motorsport academy also does a advanced SUV course with Range Rovers.
Wannabe Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 Awesome if you like movies like fast and furious, They just don't compare to German engineering. You are right, they are far superior.
Wyatt Earp Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 You are right, they are far superior.But in what regard ?
TNT1 Posted April 25, 2012 Author Posted April 25, 2012 Nissan And I heard their global network was hacked yesterday.

Wannabe Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 But in what regard ? Innovation, use of technology, forward thinking. That kind of thing. Talking about the Japs, not the Krauts.

Wannabe Posted April 25, 2012 Posted April 25, 2012 It was a Mercedes CLS before the GTR.Nissan has a big shop and test center at the Nurburgring so it may have something to do with that. Did you know that Wilhelm Baard (Nissan SA) had / has a big hand in the devolopement of the GTR range of Nissans? He was based at the "Ring a few years back, and has set some of the fastest times around the 'Ring in a GTR.
TNT1 Posted April 25, 2012 Author Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) I just wonder what these guys tell the insurance and the wife what happened to the car? If you get to the point where you take an SUV around that track, you're either still single, or your wife already knows you are a tosser. Edited April 25, 2012 by TNT1
