The McLaren P1 is obscenely fast. Ridiculously quick. Especially on track. We just received word that the P1 might have made it around the Nurburgring Nordschliefe in 6:33. That would make it the fastest ever street legal production car to hit the 'Ring. By 15 seconds. Holy shit. (UPDATED)

There are those legendary films that capture the rush of extreme driving, Climb Dance, C'était un Rendezvous, Faszination. Now we have a new one: Rain Dance.

We land in Amsterdam and Ford meets us with a brand new Fiesta ST as we start our trip to the Nürburgring 24 and Monaco, but it's at a random bar we get a message about the wildest racing we might see: The Dïrtburgring. Imagine 24 Hours of LeMons meets Sprint Cars meets Destruction Derby. Europe, you so crazy.

In 2010, famed rally driver Tommi Makinen set a record for fastest run around the Nürburgring in a Subaru Impreza, lapping the track in 7 minutes and 55 seconds in a WRX STI Spec C. A few weeks ago, a group of British tuners set out to see if they could beat that record.

When you spin out on one of the high speed sections of the Nordschleife, your chances for making it out unscathed are slim to none. Somehow, this GT2 RS driver did it, but he might need new underwear.

Today, I discovered the reason YouTube exists. No, not cat videos. The real reason is so that you, I, and everyone else in the world can watch a Ferrari Enzo ZXX and a Maserati MC12 Corsa do battle on the Nürburgring.

Let's make it simple! If you're on a racetrack that's not a drag strip and you don't need to shift down to second while completing a lap, you're either in the car with the most torque on the planet, or you're on the wrong track. Corners make life better and keep tire companies alive.

Congrats to resident racer Robb Holland who, along with Uli Baumert, took the Rotek Racing Audi TT RS racer (you've read about it here) to a class win at this weekend's VLN race. Holland set a class-best lap of 9:26.52 around the 'Ring.

Say what you want about Michael Schumacher, but he has had an illustrious and storied racing career that few have matched. To cap it off he's making a run that gives a new meaning to the term "victory lap": a go around the Nürburgring in a Formula One car next month.

The 2014 Porsche 911 GT3 has been making me crazy for the last few months. The look. The promise of driving perfection. The insanely quick PDK gearbox. But I was yet to really hear that new flat-six engine. Well, here it is. I... I need some alone time.
