When you hear someone talk about the famous Nurburgring Nordschleife you only hear about speed and the fastest lap time. It seems that it can also be used for drifting. Who thought of that before?
Franz Fabian did, back in 2002 when he shot this video while drifting the whole track from start to finish with the help of a BMW M5. The BMW M5 used in the video is powered by a 5.0 liter V8 engine developing 294 kW and 500 Nm of torque.
We guess the warning at the beginning says something like: Don't try this at home!
