King of the Green Hell, Misha Charoudin (who lives at the 'Ring) shows the ins and outs of how to get a quick lap at the 73 turn track and indeed how to survive doing it.

It has been 8 years since a last drove a lap. It has become way to crowded and risks got way higher. Just wasn't worth it to me anymore.

Untill recently, on an early Sundaymorning. No waiting times and not to many cars on the parking. Just like 10/15 years ago. Went for it and really enjoyed the lap!

Obviously it's on every mans mind to avoid a collision when driving on the 'Ring and this vid shows that even expert Misha Charoudin has to use all his prowess to avoid collisions from other less attentive drivers while driving 'Ring customers own cars. His own collision into the armco in a GT186 at 12:00 was probably due to suspension or component failure rather than from him.

Have to put on Part 2 also...as if I wouldn't, ha !
Misha adds that oil spills and vehicle debris on the track are an added risk that needs a sharp eye as well as concentrating on your track position and what's around you obviously meaning this is no walk in the park for anybody wanting a quick lap.
