Recently I got a chance to nip over the Nordschleife for the tail end of a Tourist day session. This is my 5th and final lap, and I haven't been for over 4 years so I was a bit rusty and still easing into the track.
The car is a standard Caterham 310R that apart from being road legal (required for tourist days) is in 2022 championship spec, and is in race ready spec / minimum weight etc.
The final lap time showed a 7m48.9 on the vbox.
Ideally with no traffic, a running start under the bridge (like on a full circuit track day), and a day to refine lines / braking points and get used to the circuit, I would hope to be closer to 7m40 ish. Hopefully next year.

Yes a relatively mild 7, about the same lap time as a civic type R. Both very quick ,especially for availability ,easy of everyday driving and especially PRICE . Close to supercar times .
Very clean. I know those cars give you a ton of feedback and the camera stabilizes the footage a chunk, but it ‘looked’ like you could have carried a lot more speed through some of those turns. More to come I reckon😉
Excellent! 👏 Nice flight at Pflanzgarten 1 too ✈️
Utter excellence good man!! Bravo!
And this is not the most powerful 7 by any means , there are faster ones like the 620
Wow! Amazing driving and such a great machine! Always enjoy it and stay safe!
Nice smooth drive 👍. The car seems very well balanced. Any specific stuff performed on the suspension/chassis side ?
Very nice 👍👌✌️
FFS, well done Blair, very impressive!😂
Proper peddling 🙌👌 I'm a second slowing in my 420R at the moment 🙃😂 with a little traffic but still, I've got some work to do! Great seeing this 🙌👌👏🚗💨 Did you roadtrip it there also? And what tyre pressures are you running? 🤔
There’s definitely more in it. I felt there was a bit more in my 420R. Are you planning on heading back?
Nice lap 💪🏻 which suspension and arb setting are you running on the Nordschleife?
