    When you consider the drivers in real life have to do everything you do in a sim, such as maintaining consistency, the physical act of shifting and steering etc...and they also have to cope with extreme G-forces, on many occasions energy sapping heat, as well as the dehydration, the helmet and layers of fireproof overalls, plus the actual adrenaline rush of driving at the limit and being wheel to wheel with other cars at 200+ mph, it really is a testament to their bravery and skill.

    I can still remember when I was 9 or 10 years old, I first drove around Nordschleife in a Mazda RX-7 FD on PSP version of Gran Turismo. Before that race, I had never learnt how to brake properly, how to corner properly or anything that is related to sim racing. But that track some how awakened the racing sense in my brain. It is like a click. As 95% of the corners on Nordschleife are blind, I realized I just need to brake before every corner to not crash. I was so excited to experience that Eurika moment and proceeded drive 10 more laps around. Now after 10 years, I think it is the time to go around again.

    Jimmy, what an amazing video. Some people may say "It's just a guy on a video game". I beg to differ. This is a vivid representation of what you can do when you set yourself a goal in life. The passion and determination to succeed is such a vital part of any undertaking, whether it be virtual or reality. Your positive influence extends so much more than you know. Personally, your videos have been a much needed escape from the grief and depression of losing my 2 yr old son. Watching your streams, I feel transported to another realm where all my troubles of that moment wash away. Watching you urge that car around the track has almost a hypnotic edge to it. It provides a momentary escape from the darkness that is my current reality. If I had the funds available I would support you, but alas i can not. Please accept my most heart felt thanks for the work you do. My wish is that others can find solace in your videos like I have. God bless you and keep up the good work :)

Just know that this is coming from an older father who can only imagine the sense of loss and grief you must be feeling which I'm sure comes far short of the actual experience. I am truly happy for you being able to find something, anything, that at least gives you a small respite no matter how long that relief lasts. So may God truly Bless you and yours. May he also never again allow something this terrible to happen to you in this life and may he please allow you to reunite with your son when your time comes which is hopefully after a long life that grants you the Love and Joy that will never replace your son but at least grant you some semblance of Happiness...

I can't remember if i beat it, but by God it was intense, the little mistakes, the progress, the effort and the emotion. I relived it all watching you beat the Nordschleife into submission.

    I think every sim racer have "a unicorn". And through the years some just go on to the other sim games but I think a lot of us always come back and try with different tire pressure, toe, camber,... And then a couple of months go by, maybe new sim game came out, but then you get the feeling again, "you left something unfinished"... And go back for a couple of hours,... And so on... Until you either catch that unicorn or you see a new more interesting one.

    6:11 is such a magical time, it shows that racing driver's are a special kinda breed, we all knew that Bellof was right up there with sheer pace and speed and that if he would have lived, it would have been a epic battle between him and Senna, both were the best at what they were doing, along senna they would have been the name of Bellof being multiple WC in maybe F1 (they say he already had signed a pre-contract with Ferrari) and he would have been GOAT before Schumacher and Senna.....but we will never know sadly...... Jimmy your effort has been brilliant and getting to that magical 6:11 must have been wonderful and yes in the future you will break that record, if you do i'll be around to see that, love the channel and keep up those vids coming!

By now I've managed to find 2 other songs using it: NNTH - Inside the Cloud and Alexey Kovalenko - Dreamland. I'm guessing the mix in the video is by another underground artist, which makes it nearly impossible to find. Edit: Another Song using the sample is J Wolfe - Sonorous.
