"Porsche 911 Dakar Pushes Boundaries at Nürburgring and Beyond"

TL;DR Summary
The Porsche 911 Dakar, a car equally suited for both the track surface and off-road areas, completed a lap at the Nürburgring while ignoring some corners. The driver seamlessly transitioned between pavement and grass, achieving a lap time of 7:39.40. Although not representative of the car's normal performance, it demonstrates the speed a professional can achieve in a car designed for professional-level driving. The 911 Dakar's time is comparable to laps by the Lexus LF-A, Porsche Carrera GT, and Bugatti Veyron. The Sport Auto team celebrated by setting up camp on a hill overlooking the circuit using a functional roof tent attached to the car.
