[Cadillac Drivers' LOG]Ring Ready

[Bruce Nunnally]

By Rob

We approach Nuerburgring with the greatest respect and caution. Only drivers with the utmost training and experience will drive in our tests. Safety is just part of the concern. Vehicle testing relies on consistent and repeatable driving. That?s hard to achieve anytime, let alone in a super-severe environment like Nuerburgring. The key is to drive each lap as consistently as possible. This normally also means going quite fast. I?d call it nine-tenths driving. Nine-tenths here is incredible. We have a handful of drivers we consider Nuerburgring capable, including our chief engineer, myself and several others. It?s really only after something like 100 laps that you feel even a little bit ?familiar? with this track.
