Nice. mr Muller must really know this road, a few times I thought for sure he was going to hit something.

Winston Churchill said something to the effect that, if you want to learn the game, play for more than you can afford to lose. It appears here that you get it right the first time, or you lose a lot more than a 300SL. Great stuff! Thank you for sharing.

I saw this video a couple years ago... and I never get tired of it... check out 2:25.


Absolute insanity, no room for error... and the 300SL isn't known to be very forgiving, or easy to drive at speed!
