Starting at the back if the field, Frau Schmitz cuts through the pack like a rapier. This is the reason she's called the "Queen of the Ring" Prepare for 12 minutes of awesome.

I'll keep my commentary about the 'unique' way this forum is set up in regards to external content to myself.
Of course, I had to watch Sabine drive the transit van another time after watching that one.
A few videos later I came across this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjcUJhQ0hWI It's the old episode of Top Gear where they challenged the hosts of the German car show DMotor, except it's the German version from DMotor's cameras. It's pretty funny.
Some time back there was a video floating around with Sabine driving a Cobra vs a buddy of mine driving a Corvette Gran Sport replica. It seems to no longer be on You Tube. She's a helluva driver for sure.

That was such a fun segment!!!
I dunno. If I'd been around that thing as many times as she has I'd probably be destroying some good drivers too.
I'll take on all comers here on the mountain roads of my own backyard. All comers who aren't local that is

It's also one of those "Competitive, front runner car starts from DFL on the grid" videos. There is nothing that looks so impressive in youtube vids as ripping thru all the lower classes and backmarker cars in a car capable of winning over-all. I still love that Ralf Von Os video where he does it in a 320i.
EDIT: This one
sorta like this one … a friend of mine in a BMod BMW in a BMW club race at Road Atlanta, where they did and inverted start … last to 2 in half a lap, last to first by the start of the back straight on the second lap

The Browns loaned me some gorilla tape to fix my smashed windshield so I could race this past Sunday. They be good peeps.

Summit Point, WV with BMWCCA. Todd & Sean were racing. I didn't see the white V8 car or Akard so maybe not the whole contingent came north?
different Brown's maybe … this is John Brown from Knoxville on the video … even if different family, he's good folk also

I know John used to run ACTion Racing's (M Akard out of TN) white V8 E30 (#96?). I had assumed they were all the same family but now that you mention it - no one in their hauler was sporting a southern twang.
gottcha … that is the same car (to the best of my knowledge) … JB hasn't driven it in a couple of yrs … he told me that the car has been modded/changed in ways that he said he didn't think he could... A) drive .. and B) not be able to get it back to where it was
I didn't ask him who was driving it know :(
