"Rennwurst" red-white-red at a Nürburgring Trackday
After a perfect track day on the Nürburgring, a special treat awaits the participants of the Porsche Track Experience at “Box 1”. Hot tip: drive straight there in your race car!
Just a few metres from the entrance to the Döttinger Höhe, the atmosphere is calm. While at the front of the track the tension is palpable, cars are coming off the last lap or going onto the track for the next one, drivers are getting in and out, discussing with their instructors or focused on the next stint. A little bit of a southern feel to the place. An Austrian dialect colours the conversations that can be caught in passing. Friendly laughter characterises the scenery between stacked racing tyres, camping chairs and mechanics checking the air pressure and occasionally reaching for a tool. If you didn't know for sure that this is a Porsche Track Experience event on one of the most challenging race tracks in the world, it could also be a scene from a weekend racer movie. Somewhere on a random race track that nobody knows about. Right in the centre sits Harry – calmness personified. He frequently directs a mechanic with a casual hand movement or pats a friend approvingly on the shoulder. But above all, with his relaxed manner, he gives the impression that this is more like a large circle of friends than competitors on the track.
