Re: 2.3.2010 - Variomatic meet at the Nürburgring - Pics
Pity I didn't get a pic of the "CVT Control" in the centre console. I asked Jockel about it on the phone last night - apparently it's a kind of launch control with which he can adjust the vaccuum manually, meaning if needs be he can hold the engine at maximum revs as long as he likes. It's a pity they arrived late, missing the start of the filming, which meant they couldn't use the car for "continuity reasons".
The car has a B14 V343 engine in it, along with the "launch control" it would have beaten the Corvette by a much greater margin
Funny, I took it all as a great laugh to begin with, but got very competitive towards the end

Thanks, Pete I've just updated the video - a guy from the Daf Club Germany complained that I was showing too much before the "official" TV start so I removed it from YouTube, but I've put it back up temporarily ...
Good to see you posting again
Cheers
Tom

Enjoyed it Tom, beautiful shots used there. That reverse driving shot at speed is just class.
