BLISTERING PACE! First Nurburgring Laps in My Ferrari 296 GTS

  • It's go, go, go at the Nürburgring with my new Ferrari 296 GTS! For the first time, I'm at the Green Hell with the hybrid V6 supercar from Maranello, a car that I recently bought and has been in need of the legs stretching. Well, now is exactly the time to do it, come with my for the first laps!
    Every Shmeemobile comes to the famous Nurburgring Nordschleife to be officially welcomed into the collection, so of course the 296 GTS was going to follow in the steps of the SF90 Stradale, and even my GTC4Lussos and FF before. However, you could argue it's not the right car for the purpose given it's a convertible (with higher weight) and not the Assetto Fiorano (with track suspension), but with 830hp there's plenty of power to have some fun.
    The track is busy, but that isn't going to stop the fun even during a first sighting lap and then a second one to really up the pace and get some of the excitement that this car has to offer.
    Awesome thumbnail pic from Rike67 and outro pic from MD Photography, be sure to check out pics of your laps and GP sessions at RaceTracker.de as well!

    I think the 296 is the only truly amazing modern Ferrari. Don't get me wrong I know the SF90 and the Purosangue are cool but I think the 296 is just so well done and so chimed in. It holds its own much better than its modern siblings.
