Stradman is an amateur racing driver with 21 laps across 8 vehicles, averaging 2.6 laps per car. The username references TheStradman (James Lucas Condon)—automotive YouTuber with 4.5 million subscribers known for supercar content, particularly Lamborghini. The name derives from his dream car, Ferrari 360 Stradale. Remarkably, testing includes 5 laps at BTG (Nürburgring Nordschleife) and 3 laps GP circuit across 8 different vehicles—pattern consistent with supercar YouTuber documenting exotic car experiences at legendary circuits for content creation while building genuine driving skills.
So first time taking the Golf to this track. In fact its been 3 years since I was last there in my 996 GT3. Totally different driving technique required for this. Great fun though! Only had a couple of hours there but I'm sure with a bit more time a 1:44 or even less possible. Next time!
In this instance I used Michelin Cup 2 tyres 235/35/19 on OEM rims
