Watch a Mini Set a Nürburgring Lap Record?on Two Wheels



Four-wheeled Nürburgring records are so passé. Seemingly every automaker has taken home some sort of record at the famed German track, but Chinese stunt driver Han Yue just blew all of them out of the water for sheer impressiveness. Yue now holds the record for the fastest automotive lap of the ?Ring on two wheels, with a time of roughly 45 minutes.

There’s a reason it took so long, as Bridge to Gantry reports that Yue had a problem with one of his tires, preventing him from going any quicker. The rear tire vibrated above 12 mph, so Yue managed an average speed of only 17.4 mph on the lap.
Balancing on two wheels requires strong tires, which is why Yue’s Mini ran with solid-construction off-road tires wrapped around six-lug wheels; the tires were barely worn at the end of the stunt. Bridge to Gantry also reports that this was the first-ever record-setting Nürburgring lap streamed live on Facebook, for whatever that’s worth.

Ok, so Yue’s Mini isn’t Porsche 918 quick, but this record is equally awesome. The ?Ring is challenging enough with all four wheels on the ground?imagine holding a car on two wheels through 13 miles and dozens of turns, all while dealing with elevation changes and pavement imperfections.
